Part 1:
Ever meet a diamond in the rough? May it be at work, in a club you belong to or yes, even in the dating scene...I seem to be a magnet for them. Thats not an exageration, just truth. Let me tell you about this little gem of a stud muffin I recently "met" the acquaintance of.
The website I am currently casting my net out for potential beau's matched me up with *Bobby. Great guy on screen, job, interests, sports, etc. He sent me a note...well more like a novel but hey, he had alot to say and I'm a rambler myself, who am I to judge? He's in the music industry and a handful years younger (no worries, my name won't change to Mrs. Robinson). I replied and a short stint of emails back and forth to get to know each other better ensued. Phone numbers were exchanged so you would think if someone gave you their phone number you might do something wacky like call them right? Nope...this guy is definitely a texter.
His first text was a "hello" but his second text was already asking me to send him a photo of myself to put into his caller id. Whoa nelly! Moving a little fast here Cap'n, lower the sails so we can glide a bit shall we? He sent one of himself to me with the disclaimer that he looks like a gangster cause its a dark photo and really not a good one of him. Lets take a Kit-Kat break here and ask the question "Why would you send someone a photo of yourself that you're not confident about? That you know is bad? And you're already berating yourself for your photography skills?" Ok, time-in.
Remember, we "met" on a dating website but apparently he doesn't remember who I am after just one week so he then goes on to ask me for my username so he can go back an look me up cause he deletes all his messages. What does this tell me? He's definitely not the brightest star in the sky and slightly tacky. Who admits to that? Come on, wing it! Or don't give out your number to every Tom, Dick and Harry out there. He's in the industry...maybe its just a musician thing? I'll give him the benefit of the doubt but I'm starting to see some red flags here. Since then he's been able to reread my profile but then he's asked me questions that I've already provided the answers for in my profile like "What town do you live in?" "What apartments do you live in?" First...its indicates that I live in Phoenix, second, if I indicate one of my interests is working in my yard more than likely I don't live in an apartment. Hmmm....maybe I'm being too harsh?
Note to those who accesorize with Rose Colored Glasses, if the guy can't remember who he sent his number to and apparently has to repeat the initial 'get to know you' via text message on top of asking you for a picture before your last name....run for the hills! This goes for the guys too! If theres a lady out there who can't figure out how in the world she might know you even after giving her a hint or two, its time to move on to someone less ditzy.
