Personals

To all the boys out there who are actually trying to use online dating to meet someone, not just as an excuse to be a dirty pervert, I have a little message for you.
            Whilst it’s very nice that you send messages to people, and it’s always friendly to include something positive about the profile and pictures of the person that you’re writing to, if you are just copy and pasting the same message to hundreds of girls at one, we can actually tell. Not all girls get overwhelmed and giggly at a compliment and fail to see that the actual content of the message is 100% generic.
            For example, the following is a bit mental and crazy, but if you put that to one side, it’s an essentially overwhelmingly nice message. An overwhelmingly nice message without a single reference to the person you’re writing to, apart from the fact that you have actually confirmed they are female (well done you). Try not to vomit whilst you’re reading this, and tell me that he’s not blatantly sending this to the entire female population of this particular site:

“Hi gorgeous girl…morning!! I am new on this website and I don’t know how does it work but you look incredibly beautiful. I am sitting in my office and looking at you. You made my dark room look so bright now. I like what you have written on your profile and I found you the most decent girl out here. I really like your smooth silky hair, your mona lisa smile and your killing looks. I think you have a great personality and I respect you for that. You are brilliant!!!!”

Ok, so perhaps he has one message for each hair type, but other than that, really?!
            I suppose it’s finally starting to make sense why so many people who can’t face life in the real world find love in online chat rooms and dating sites without ever having to meet the person in question. If there’s anyone out there who wants a bit of a confidence boost, who is willing to believe absolutely any strange foreign man will say to them, then they need look no further than pof.com.
