There's No Road Coming Back This Way...

THIS is my letter to the world, That never wrote to me,— The simple news that Nature told, With tender majesty. Her message is committed To hands I cannot see; For love of her, sweet countrymen, Judge tenderly of me! Emily Dickinson

Sometimes I really wonder

Feast or famine is my experience with match. I average about 100 hits a week, true. But one day I'll receive like 20 and the next couple nothing. Not quiet sure how to fix that. I got a hit the other day though from a profile that I must use as a very bad example - Well ladies, my time here on match is almost up. I can't say that my time on match has been all that rewarding, but I am going to give it one more shot. I am going to say what I truely feel because I feel that honesty is always the best policy. I am 27 years old. Within the last year all I want is to be married and have a family. I never thought I would feel like this but I guess my "guy biological clock" is ticking. Everyone tells me that I am still young and to take my time, but that advice is coming from all the people that have a significant other. When X-mas morning came, I didn't want gifts, I wanted to give gifts. All I wanted was to see that smile on my ladies face after I gave her something that she really wanted. I know this sounds sappy, but I really don't care. Sometimes I can be sappy, thats what makes me, me. Lately, all I can do is look around and wonder why a guy like me that has a heart of gold does not have someone. I don't understand women! I don't understand why a girl would want to date a guy that treats her like dirt. I don't understand why a guy like me can't get a date. I am very sweet, and I think that is my downfall. I think girls want the "bad guy", and I don't understand that either. Well, I could go on and on about my life and how I don't understand women, but I think that would get kind of boring. So I will write a couple more things about myself and then I am off. I am a very determined person. I am moving on from a job I have been at for over four years because I don't believe I am getting anywhere. I need to be succesful in life. I want my wife to have the option of staying home and not working. I have a lot of interests and a lot of hobbies. I enjoy the outdoors and will try anything. I love to stay in, cuddle, and watch movies. I enjoy a night gettting dressed up and going out on the town. I get a kick out of sitting at a "hole in the wall" bar. Well, I hope to hear from you soon. Wow! My first thought is a very sarcastic "he's not bitter is he". It's very nice that he wants to have someone to share things with and to take care of. But this guy comes across hurt right from the get go. This is a classic sign of what not to post. Next is an email I received. Again bad example - Hi. Read your profile. You sound interesting. Look at my profile, if your interested get back in touch. Too short. And what's with the "you sound interesting"? He too sounds bitter. In a much shorter time period. Telling a girl she sounds interesting is NOT how to get her attention. I put a lot of quality stuff in my profile. Most of the responses are very generous. Definately not interesting. Plus the whole tone of the email sounds short, abrupt, and kind of rude. Honestly, what are you guys thinking? All I can say is that I got a giggle out of it. Just because to me they really are absurd.
