Radio silence

As if the pain of the date and the dodgy follow up text from The Word Smith about scoring him out of five in a number of key ‘datability’ areas wasn’t enough, he’s now just gone and made it all a bit worse.

            I replied to his ‘rate me’ text with a fairly conservative, “Interesting approach. OK, I’m going to go with: 5, 4, 3, 4. I’d say that’s a pretty solid score.” By solid, I meant totally fabricated as I had added at least two points to each score I gave, but still, just because the boy was odd, that didn’t mean that I needed to be harsh or to crush his eagerness for the world of online dating (regardless of how much he’s scared me off.)

            He responded three times in a row, to which I didn’t send a single reply. I think that I’m complete done now. I’m going to leave it on this slightly awkward note, and embrace the safety of total radio silence from here on in:

“Meh at the lowest score being on shaggable. But, hey, I can be clever with words.”

“To be fair, your shaggable score is also 3!”

“Still can’t believe you gave me a 3. *throws a PG Wodehouse book **grins smugly”

The End. Very much, the end.
