ghost

says he is of black/african descent??

lite-skin.

…looks pretty black to me…so where’d lite skin come from??

lover 4u:

 “WANT SPECIAL LADY THAT NEED AFFECTIONATE, LIKE HAVE HAND HELD, LOVE LAUGHTER, CUDDLING & KISSING. I LIKE SHOW AFFECTIONATE I MISSED IT IN A RELATIONSHIP, HOPE YOU ARE TOO!”

As for his taste in books…”THAT DON’T HAVE HOLD!”   I don’t know what that means.

ron

Ok, I’m not posting a picture of Ron because I was afraid I would shoot straight to hell right from my living room.  However, I did have to post what he has in his profile because legs or not, who the hell writes this shit???

“I have 5 kids 21,17,14,12 and 11 the oldest i adopted like at 4 well i live in ohio and my xwife and her boyfriend and my daughte and my oldest son live in arizona.my xwife and her boyfriend don’t talk to my oldest son cause he does dope and drinks heavily and he lives seperately from my xwife my daughter lives with my xwife cause shes a mommas girl but still loves her daddy.i have 4 boys and 1 girl.the girl is the youngest.i live with my 3 boys. i am legally seperated and i will be going through a divorce in a couple of months to the end of the year.i am an epileptic and a diabetic both controlled by medicine.i have not had a grand mall seizure in 20 years.i still have seizures.they are called complex partial seizures.its when you sit in your chair and space out for a few seconds thats all and that only happens once in a great while.now with me beind a diabetic i have not had problems with my sugar level since my accident.in 1999 i had an automobile accident a drunk driver hit me and severed my legs off at the scene.i almost died from a loss of blood.right now i have no legs from knees down.”

 now you know why I didn’t post a picture because it is of him in his wheel chair, in shorts, with his stumps (I’m sorry, God forbid me).

dat nigga name frawg  

 he’s separated – darn, i have this rule where i won’t talk to or date men who aren’t legally divorced – otherwise, damn, if I were single, I’d be swooping in and getting that one LMAO

Pete

is 5’4″ and “i am looking for good woman no games i think i am one of the last good men left i am in excellent shape and all my priorities are together i own my house and have motorcycle and prostreet truck i love car shows just need someone to go with” 

ok, so his profile pic is of a gigantic (and ugly) souped-up truck….oedipus complex anyone? His favorite book is the Bible – let’s hear it for my 6’0” minimum height requirement LMAO

Rick

lives in Louisville – white capital of Ohio…really…White Supremacy rednecks run rampant in Louisville.  But doesn’t he look like a keeper? One of his favorite bands is Iron Maiden….except that he can’t even spell their name right.  One of his other profile pics has him flipping the bird – however, his hair was nicely feathered.  Jesus Christ.

“Nice Guy” 

ok, poor guy lives in East Canton – take all the ill-educated, border-line hillbilly’s of the country and they all live in East Canton. His intro is: “was married for 18 years never dated was with my x since high school so im new to this .huge steeler fan like to play darts and pool and anything outside .im just a laid back regular guy who dont like to argue and very rarely raises my voice and loves to laugh and make people laugh . I feel a day is not complete if u dont laugh and my motto is one day at a time.Im not a memeber but u can get me at XXXXX”  His Perfect Match:i like short woman who r open minded and just likes to have fun looks r important but not as important on whats on the inside

His Ideal Date: a nice dinner a couple drinks and good communication to get to kno each other is fine with me

O sweet Jesus – it’s always sad when the ill-educated get online and try to type. Can you imagine a conversation with this guy? Can you imagine keeping a straight face as you sat across from this guy? LOL

Then we have Pawl.

He’s 5’3” tall.  Refer to my Letter to God if you are unaware of my attraction to TALL guys.  He winked at me. His profile is blank. Thank God, because I think his photo says enough. Nice camo shirt.

Then we have “Beast.”

Ok – I can’t decide if the background in his picture is a stain-splattered cinder-block wall or the wall to the hidden room in which he holds women captive.  Either way, I get the serious heebie jeebies from this dude.  Add the fact that his “Story” is all of: “r u wearing anything??????????????? Lol” and I am pretty creeped out.  Next!

Next we have Harleyman. Can I tell you how many guys put Harley in their profile names? Seriously? Your identity has to be tied to your bike? You can’t be your own fucking man AND have a bike? Ok, tangent over. 

Anyways, here’s harleyman.

Now here’s his story:  “i have been married and devoriesd 3 times i spent 5 years in prison i am a easy going person i am a simple man with simple plan i dont want to grow old alone im looking for soul mate to spend the rest of my life with i love to ride .i love kids im a big kid i have none of my own“

I’m pretty sure one of my criteria on my “If you want to date me…” rule card from Denis is that you can’t have a felony. And I don’t think you go to jail for five years for a misdemeanor.  Yikes!

Finally, we have Del. 

 ”I like to go on long motorcycle rides, walks long the beach, doing things with my kids cause they are a big part of my life and most important to me, i love to spend long nites by the fire with drinks and friends i like to go out danceing ,singing and shooting pool,i like stoping and picking wild flowers off side of the road and bringing little gifts for that special lady in my life.Dont like a woman that cant be ture, dont like to play games, the darma thing will aways happen we say we are free from but we are not all free from it. But im a strong enough man that if it does come up I can still stand beside her and deal with. im that kind of guy no matter what life throws at me, its not worth getting bent out of shape over as long as two people love each other.Im not type of guy to stand back and watch the one I love have to deal with things by her self, I will always be there to let the one love to know its going to be ok.”

I’m not sure what upsets me more – that someone so ill-educated procreated and made some little Del’s, or that he thinks we’d be a good match.

Thank God I don’t take this shit seriously. I’ll be sleeping with my favorite BOB Pete tonight LOL

First we have Brad

“hi

i like your profile and am interested in learnin more about you and you of me! Im SWM, 33, massillon, no kids, no drugs, non smoker, never married. cool, fun, outdoorsy, cute, single, athletic, very hardworking, sporty, affectionate. like to do many things from summer road trips, swimming, goin to a beach, kayaking, to sittin on a pation drinkin a few cold ones, play pool, dance. luv to stay in the wintertime n hibernate, cuddle, watch sports and more.

i do have pics to share

b in Massillon”

Brad gets the trophy for longest run-on sentence.  I actually know Brad from one of the other sites. I have refused to meet Brad. Do you know why? Because he sounds like a fucking redneck on the phone.  The one time he called me and left a message, I swear I heard the dueling banjo’s of Deliverance.

Eric says, “HOW ARE YOU DOING? I CANT SEND A PIC ON HERE THEY SAY ITS TO BIG. BUT I WOULD LIKE TO TALK TO YOU. I MA 39 YRS OLD. I HAVE A JOB. I HAVE MY OWN STUFF I JUST NEED A LADY IN MY LIFE.”

 Sometimes I really hate the CAPS LOCK key.

Greg tells me: “Massilon is close”   He can’t even spell the name of the city correctly.

Meet Jeff:  “Hi my name is jeff i am 35 years old got a stable job worked there 15 years, have my owne place, no kids. I am verry laid back.I want someone who will be loving, caring, honist, and faithful. Thats how i am. I love the outdoors camping, walks in the park, amusment parks, and just having a quiet kight at home alone together.”

Jeff needs a dictionary and he needs to share it with Greg.

Israel would like to know: “wasn’t thinking of meeting as yet just Mature male looking for a woman who is discrete and exhibitionist for ” no contact ” , maybe later but just looking for woman who loves undressing in the window for private shows any age size…discrete and I sometimes leave a tip in the mailbox”

OH MY GOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  I feel dirty and suddenly am scared for my mailbox!!

Then we have Boris:  “hello i read your post so, im replying  i live close in jackson so we could go for a drink and see what happens  thanks  boris .”

 I’m sorry – I keep picturing Boris Yeltsin and Russia.

Ok – first, here’s what my ad says: SWF seeking the right guy to enjoy life with. I’ve got a stable job, a good home, no children. Looking for a man who can romance me and travel with me. Interests range from camping in the summer time to snuggling in front of the fire during the harsh Ohio winters. I don’t like drama, I’m laid back, work out with a trainer once a week and am not a clingy girl. I can take care of myself, no sugar daddies necessary, just want someone to complement my life. Please include a pic with your reply and tell me more about yourself! •  Location: Massillon, Ohio •

Sweet Jesus – as soon as the ad posted, I got 12 responses in two hours.  Which tells me two things – one, people spend way too much time on Craigslist waiting to jump on the newest thing to be posted and two, there are way too many men trying to find a woman in this county.

So here we go – the best of the best of Craigslist! And these are only the guys who sent pictures – I haven’t even looked at the ones who just replied because where’s the fun in that? LOL

 Christopher –   “hi, Im a 33 SWM from alliance.  I liked your profile and you sound too good to be true.  Im a chemist at a water plant.  I have no kids.” 

Guys, please don’t send anyone topless pictures of yourself – what is up with that?? Why do you guys think we want to see your chest hair – or lack thereof – or undefined arms, or a sixpack we could eat our lunch off of.  Can’t you just be normal and send a picture with your clothes on? Really makes me wonder what you’d be wearing if I met you out! LOL

Then we have John – “My name is John, I live in Canton, single, never married, no kids, drug and disease free, 5’4″ tall, age 44, workout three times per week at Bally’s, enjoy camping, traveling, nights out, and nights at home.  I’m looking for someone who is comfortable in all social settings since I like to be active in the community.  I prefer the more tropical vacation locales, been camping as a youth in Scouting and now as an adult at various private adult clubs.  My ultimate dream job would be an acting job in Hollywood.  Hit me up if interested in chatting or meeting sometime.  John”

I have a question – what’s an adult camping club??

 So we have Karl:

“My name is Karl and I’m a divorced business owner in Hudson.  I also love to travel – this past Summer I took my daughter to Tokyo – that was a blast!  I have two kids in a shared arrangement and I have them every other week.  If we were to go on an extended trip my ex would have no problem keeping the kids for and extended period.  I would love to find someone to go to the UK with where I have good friends with a fantastic place to stay at in Bath.  Have you ever been to the UK?  I’ve been there on numerous occasions, including Stonehenge on the Spring Equinoxe.  I haven’t had an opportunity to take the EuroStar from London to Paris – wouldn’t that be fun?

I’m also a member of LifeCenter here in Hudson where I love to play racquetball and workout.  I’m 30 lbs heavier in this pic than I am now – right now I’m 6’1 230.  I also LOVE to ski, and it looks like it might be a good year for that.  I’ve skiid all over, including from the top of Mt Blanc in the Alps.  Do you ski by any chance?  If you haven’t, I used to be an instructor….;)

Anyhow, I would love to hear back from you.

Camelot awaits.

Karl”

Camelot’s gonna keep waiting, buddy.  Wow – and here’s another thing guys – don’t send pictures of you with your cat because that just screams GAY to me (Love gay men, but normally straight women don’t want to date them!). 

Allow me to introduce you to Bill

“Hi I’m 49 years old I looked at your post and am interested in you.. I am 5’9″ 240 lbs blue eyes blond and gray hair. I would like to get to know you.    I am one woman man. loyal and brutally honest, if you don’t want to know don’t ask.    

                             Waiting Bill     “

Did you do a double take like I did? God is really letting someone look like this??  Bill’s gonna be waiting along with Karl and his Camelot.

Then we have Big Nick “hello  im 31yr  5ft5 130lbs  i  live in wadsworth  i  have two kids  they stay with there mom   im lokking  for  freinds  and see where it goes   heres my pic  nick  thanks”

Not sure where the Big comes from but I would never want to find out.  He’s a man of few words: Ahhhhh gotta love the spelling.  The best part is, when these guys respond to the ad, it uses their real email addresses.   Big Nick’s name on the email account he used to respond to the ad? Linda.  Yes, that’s right, Linda.  Which says either he doesn’t have his own email, and who in the hell doesn’t have email any more, or he’s using his girlfriend’s/wife’s computer.  NICE.

*shudder* and people wonder why I don’t go out to bars?? Who wants to meet these guys for real?!?

First we have bike33  - God love him for trying – he’s 47 (digging the handlebar mustache) and has this to say:

” Hi my name is Keith, I have been single for about 3 years and I feel its about time I take some time for myself and find my best friend to enjoy things with. Most of my friends say I am very organized and particular, I guess there right but whats wrong with that. Not looking for just a girl, looking for the right lady, honest, trustworthy and intelligent, I am pritty new to the computor and this type of dating but seems very interesting so far. I am a very simple person kind of old school in my lifestyle, basically hold family in very high reguard and love kids young and older really enjoy teaching kids, god knows they need alot of that now a days. Well hopefully there are some old school ladys out there somewhere and I would really like to meet you so lets talk. Thanks and hope to here from you soon ………………………….”

Ideal Date

As I said earlier I am a little old school, a few good conversations on the phone and then asking her what she would enjoy to do and always keeping in mind I want here to feel comfortable on our frist meeting not worried about safty.

He has now completely and totally butchered the English language and I really don’t even know what else to say except DAMN!

As an aside, I would like to point out to everyone who’s enduring the online dating scene – use Word to write your shit.  Why? Because it has spell check.  It may not detect if you’re using Its or It’s correctly, but at least your basic spelling errors will be corrected.

Kenseth is just – well – fucking scary looking.  

He says he’s a Buddhist – somehow, that doesn’t make me feel better. He lives in Carrollton (that may explain it – Carrollton is known for it’s redneck population) and has requested that no “PSYCHOZ” contact him.  Really? He’s that picky? LOL

Arthur is 41, has three children and says: 

Story

im a single father of three who is about to be a grandpa.Looking for a new begining with the right women

Perfect Match

my perfect match wouldbe any women,don’t know what to say Im not perfect

Ideal Date

email walk in park diner just get to know someone Not into a onenight stand sort of thing

Ok – freaky picture aside, there is no part of me that would want to be a step grandma at the age of 35 so really??  Uuugghh  again – doesn’t anyone read what they write??

Oh My God – it gets better.  We have 52 year old Golden Buckeye.  **shuddering**

Perfect Match

a woman,tall or short.any nationality.she works,knows how to cook,good looking,honest,affectionate,happy and funny,just like me.i will laugh when she laughs,and i will cry when she needs a cry.we will live,love and laugh our way through life.

Ideal Date

a day or night on the town,dining out with burgers,pizza,chicken or whatever.getting to know all about each other,planting the seeds for a long term relationship.dont forget desert,and that very first goodnight kiss!!

Clearly – this is a guy who knows how to romance a woman – I mean, dining out for burgers, pizza or chicken?  Geez ow – almost made me want to give up Gabriel until I realized that dining out for burgers, pizza or chicken is typically something you do with a five year old, NOT when you’re romancing a woman!  Christ!

Now I lay me down to sleep, I pray the Lord to always keep Gabriel by my side because I swear on all that is Holy, if these guys were my only prospects in life, I’d have to become a lesbian.

 Bob is 47 and lives in Pittsburgh, PA.  Thank God.  He has three children who don’t live with him, he went to high school and is a Christian.  Please don’t ask about anything else because he didn’t provide any other information.  But doesn’t he look like a keeper?

Moving on to Vince who at the age of 35 would at least be in my age-range, has a decent picture although somethingabout him said “scary” to me.

 Then I saw where he listed his favorite movies: ” The Star Wars Saga, Lord Of The Rings Saga, The Matrix Saga, Kill Bill, V For Vendetta. I’m a big movie fan and will watch anything once if it is good.”  Sudden flashback to my ex-husband who was a science fiction/fantasy fan as well – and lined his walls with action figures and comic book collections.  Slowly back away from the adult who can’t leave his childhood behind him.

 Here’s to 2010 – good luck to everyone in their endeavors – may you men who are online take some new pictures, learn how to spell and continue to email me because this shit is priceless!!

Moving on, we have ds4fun1.  lives in town, unfortunately, and hasn’t heard of updating your hair style from the 1980s.  His story? “single.”   Well, now, if that doesn’t just say it all???

We have noel63 who’s what, 46 years old?

Mmmmmkkkkkkkk  His interests are “I do oil painting and linten to music and I like cooking. Im a down to earth and honest and caring person I like going camping in the woods and watching the sunset and laying by the fire place .And I like spending with my dog duke and taking long walks ……………..”

Niteowlbatawadaidon’tremembertherestofhisname.

Really – don’t even know what his name is supposed to be but whatever.  Now I’m starting to feel sorry for these guys – I realize that everyone wants to find love.  This poor dude, though….his requirements for a match? Be a woman and live within 100 miles.  That’s just sad. He has no other standards except that his match be a woman??

Derek has a lot to say…”hi”  

he doesn’t have a personal description, doesn’t know his religious or poltical views, doesn’t have kids and doesn’t know if he wants kids.  You now know as much about him as I do.

Backdoorbob (really) doesn’t have much to say either – he winked.

He’s 35 and thank you Jesus, lives in Stow.  His requirements for a perfect match are a woman aged 18-55.  I think we have a winner!

And finally, we have John.

His ideal woman is aged 18-80.  Really.  18-80…He’s 37 years old, looks about 50.  His personal description: “females on these sites are realy funny , they have how they want to find a cool real , relaxed man , but when the man , is not a brad pitt , or goeorge clooney , they just pass them by,,and then they wonder why they can never find someone , who is , a real man ,.”    Dude – we don’t want Brad Pitt – but damn – based on your picture, I can understand why women aren’t pounding on your door – add your positive description and geez, yea, you certainly sound like a keeper, and not like a man who’s got hangups about rejection!

Cheeseburger looks like this:

just new at this computer thing not retarded lol fiqure out how to get my pik on here soon. my name is kevin i do enjoy doing spontanious things i drive truck 4 a liveing , im home most weekends sometimes thru the week . not really into bar flies if you know what i mean no time 4 that. i do enjoy rideing in the summer. im very spontanious when i want to go do something dont like to make plans just do it on the fly.hope you respond Kevin

I need an aspirin. and some mace.

It gets even better when we meet Schepp: 

hi im 39 yrs old no kids .i am honest ,caring and i needs a good women .i also love my family very much my parents and brother and sister and her husband and 2 kids..i love music metallica is my fav.also motley crue.alice in chains,.i also love movies dramas mostly.i love law and order too all of them. i have been hurt in the past but im not giving up.i am a huge steeler fan too since i was 5.i love sports mostly watching it .

I love my family too but I don’t detail my family tree on my profile either.

Winking at us today is buchevy – remember him? He’s the one who’s profile name description is buchevy nice long hair. nice long 5’8′ 5’9′ 5’10′ 5’11′ long legs very pretty slender body and legs age range 40 to 45 white women only   so let’s recap myself, shall we?  Nice short hair, 5’4, curvaliscious body, 35 years old.  But I am white.  Jesus.  What kills me is someone who looks like this:

is so particular.

Gentleguy lives in Virginia, thank you God. 

Please correct me if I’m wrong, but when I saw this picture, my first thought was crackhead.  Even better is he’s 33, looking for a woman aged (are you ready for this?) 21 to 66.  Yes, that’s right.  66 years of age.  He has 22 friends on this site (I don’t know why people make others friends on these sites but whatever rocks their boats).  Looking at his “friends’” photos – THEY ARE ALL FAT WHITE WOMEN.  Which makes me pause, look down at myself and ask “Oh my God, do I look as fat as these chicks in my pictures???  These chicks look like they visit White Castle five times a week – that’s it, I’m fasting for four days.”

Maybe they’re just his Ho’s. 

Why do I do this?  This is me saying a quick prayer and hoping to God I get a real boyfriend soon because this online shit is useless!

Next up, as I’m shaking my head at men and their inability to think, is somedude.  Somedude lives in Massillon – what I consider to be the toilet of Ohio.  I hate Massillon.  Here’s a reason why.  Here’s a dude who is not terrible looking, could have potential if I overlooked his address and then we come to his interests.  They include: 420 bbw browns cavs indians sex  For those of you not following his intellectual pursuits, let me enlighten you.  420: smoking weed.  Bbw: big beautiful women.  Browns: The Cleveland Browns (who suck).  Cavs: The Cleveland Cavaliers.  Indians: The Cleveland Indians. And Sex.  Wow.  He likes his women big – great for him, as I glance down at my thighs, thank god I’m going to the trainer tonight and wonder sweet jesus – how fat do I look in my profile pictures because I didn’t think I resembled a cow?!?!  Here’s a guy I definitely want to take home to my parents!

 Countrysingle lives in Dresden – which I think is absolute farm country. Which I’d love, if it weren’t 56 miles away (I love how the sites will tell you exactly how far away someone is from you).  His profile pictures (he has six) are ALL  of an antique pickup truck.  His story: “i wen to tri valley high school then went to vocay. school i really injoy the outdoors,fishing, and footballgames.”  His Perfect Match: “someone who likes goingout and haveing fun, or likes to stay at home sometims”  This is the grammar/punctuation whore kicking in…..

And then we have I make more bread.  He’s 23, doesn’t know what his relationship status is and has this to say:  “i am not working right it the winner.but i do got money.  i like to hang out with the women frist to get to kno them”  

 Oh my – fight the urge to contact him – he’s most definitely a fucking keeper.

Moving on, they only get better.  Then we have Totage.  His interests are: God, Jesus Christ, The Holy Bible, Technology, The Internet, Love, Pease, Happiness….”  He writes and tells me he just moved back from Salt Lake City where his last girlfriend ripped his heart out.  Baggage anyone?  He asked me what kind of professional I was (I didn’t put accountant in the profile, just “Professional”).   Do you know how badly I want to respond and tell him I’m a prostitute?  Because somehow, I can’t see myself waking up every morning next to a man who looks like this:

 I’m gonna go run for the hills now.

Per this morning’s discussion on BC, I’m attaching a few more pics of the prospects who have contacted me in the past – now really, for any men reading this who want some tips on online dating, which are in an earlier post, let me reiterate – POST A GOOD PICTURE!!!

huh?

poor guy, he’ll be a virgin for life.

i can’t decide – circa 1973 or dude forgot where the barbershop is in 2009?

this is why you should be drunk when you take a picture of yourself

ooooooo sexy beer gut

wanna cuddle with him??

Oh my name is Davies XXXXXXX from okcupid dating site. Sweetie you really have to be careful in that dating site as matter of fact I will love to cancel my profile very soon if everything goes well between as because am really interested in you and I like you a lot.

some day in the future From time to time you ask me why I chose you … what is so special about you? Well, the reason is simple; I chose you because you are YOU!!! I have never had anyone treat me the way you do. I have never had anyone just look at me and make me feel beautiful in and out. You do that to me! You make me feel special and wanted. As liberal as I can be, I would never do anything to hurt you. You mean more to me than you realize. I am hoping that one day I can prove all of this to you! I want you for you!

 Anyway let me stop here for now and I look forward hearing from you soonest

 With love

Davies

This is me slowly backing away from the computer, locking my doors and windows and thanking God he is in Maryland and far, far away from me!!!  DELETE!!!

Buchevy – wow now he’s a keeper for sure.  He lives in Pennsylvania, praise Jesus and resembles Kermit the Frog with tinted sunglasses on.  He winked at me, which surprises me given his description of what he’s looking for – which he put in his description of himself as his headline, I might add.  Classy.  “nice long hair. nice long 5’8′ 5’9′ 5’10′ 5’11′ long legs very pretty slender body and legs age range 40 to 45 white women only”    Per my pictures and my profile description, I have short hair, I am 5’4, ok I am pretty but a slender body no – I have DD boobs for god’s sake – and I am 35 years old.  Oh and I’m white.  Why is my skin crawling?

Schmiddy75 IM’d me while I was on one of the sites.  I took a minute to notice the IM and reply with a hello.  For which I got attitude.  When I inquired as to why no picture on his profile, he responded “cause i dont have one but i guess u like the rest on here looks come first not the person themselfs”     and at that I ended the conversation.

Kenny winked at me – and wow, he sounds like a keeper.  He has no profile picture but I’ll take him on faith.  I mean, after all, his story is wonderful:  “I’m alone for now, but I’m O.K. because the woman I was with, she turned her back on me!”  As if that’s not enough to clinch it for me, his description of his perfect match suits me just fine: “I just need someone, to keep it real and ain’t for no head games “please”. I want to just settle down,& I’m ready to sign those papers only if you are that person as well to do the same.”  Be still my beating fucking heart. LOL

It’s 3:00 – I think it’s ok to have a glass of wine and try to not lose faith in humanity.  Or men. Or both.
