Online Game

Kudos to people who find their match through online dating; I see nothing wrong with this way of meeting people, but I seriously have no game whatsoever with this business.  I apparently either need to make some changes to my profile or my tactics, but I’m sure I won’t do either.  Here is a smattering of messages I’ve sent to different guys in the past few months; I haven’t heard back from any of them.

Falstaf1 stated in his profile, I once lived in Bulgaria, in the sunny seaside town of Varna, taming and training small brown bears to dance to the tantalizing tune of a lute, eating fire and perfecting my skills as a cut-purse. Ok, so only part of this is actually true. I was intrigued and sent him a message: I'm hooked - I need to know how much and which bits of your Bulgaria tale are true. Either way, I'm slightly jealous of all your international experiences; they put mine to shame.

To Pronsato who had a highly entertaining profile I messaged I would like to award you 5 gold stars (unofficially, though, because 1. I don't have any at the moment and 2. I have no star-giving authority) for your entertaining profile. Well done.

OK Cupid suggested that Helloguest and I would be a good match, so after looking at his profile I sent him this message:

1. The Quiver people have chosen and think we're a match.

2. All I can hear is Yoda's voice now.

3. Let me know if you need help visiting the 100 places to eat in SF. Especially if pancakes are involved because I have a major hankering for some good pancakes right now.

Bapssty is another match for me according to OK Cupid, so I made the first move. Surprise! I meet some of your criteria: I walk all of the time, AND I enjoy fun. Amazing. If that doesn't sell you on me, Cupid here thinks we'd be okay as a match or friends. What do you think?

To Kellyisaboysname who said he wishes he went bowling more I simply wrote to him, I vote that we go bowling. I'm pretty horrendous at it, which means you will win and probably be entertained by the techniques I use.

Waiting4godot is fairly new to the city and wants to explore it, learn a language, the guitar, or to dance.  I tried to open the door with I don't think we're mortal enemies because we seem to have quite a bit in common; on the other hand, maybe we have too much in common and will be competitive and then become rivals. I can't teach you how to play the guitar or another language, but I make a great dance partner. I'm always up for exploring the city and discovering new places. Let me know if you want company on your next SF adventure.
