I am a single, independent Gemini woman living in Ventura County, CA. This is not meant to be some life changing, awe inspiring dating advice blog; it is just me and my random, some times contradicting thoughts and points of view on dating while living in the suburbs. It's not always easy or fun but this is my life and I hope that my experiences are entertaining or informative; if even just to get to know myself better through the therapeutics of writing, I will continue and write when I feel the need to....I've been at this for YEARS now and have yet to find my prince charming, so follow me through my life as being SINGLE IN THE SUBURBS and be glad you're not me! ;)

First Impressions

Being on the online dating sites, I have seen a lot of...interesting ways men try to grab your attention through first impression emails. While most of the FREE sites are full of horny boys looking for hookups, which I end up just deleting (although I've learned a lot; like what DSL and DTF mean)...I came across one today that was very clever, well thought out and witty enough for me to actually reply to:

"after a rigorously brief glance at your profile.. i gotta tell you I've already married and divorced you in my head... lol
some how you got to keep the puppy though.... So I'm keeping the house in maui, HI.hahaha.. u seemed fun...Daniel"

Another interesting one I got today:

"Is your name Google?"

I am curious to know the punch line of that one!...

Messages that I don't reply to include:
Message, followed by translation/my response in ()

:Hey, what's up? (Boring)
:Hello gorgeous (So cliche/not original, clever or REALLY interested)
:Are you DTF? (Uh..NO!)
:You look like you could suck a mean.... (Really, dude?!?)
:Wanna Cyber? (Umm, what are we back in 1993?)
:Nice Pics! (Creepy Stalker typw just looking at pretty girls, not wanting anything more)
:What up? Followed with a picture of a white boy thugged out throwing a gang sign...(No, thanks!)
:do you ever go out in hollywood? (Party boy, not interested)

I would be so amused by those messages! Those boys make all men look really, really bad.
