Fear Of Landing

Adventures in dating 3

I sent the email below, still not sure what this guys deal was.  Seemed a little wordy but I'm bored and wanted to know more.  I enjoy figuring people out.

I appreciate your informative email.  You sound very intriguing.  Are you from Texas originally?  I have lived several other places, but have lived in Texas the longest so I call it home.  I am a single parent of two adult children and two teenage children.  I work two jobs and spend my free time with family and friends.  As I said in my profile, I have a rich full life but am just missing that person to share things with.  You mention that you are a Christian, are you an active church goer?  I have attended many different types of churches thru my life.  I read that you are an idealist, I am more of a realist myself - I guess that comes from working in the social work field.  It's like you have hope for things that are better but accept the realities of humanity.  I have a very rich sense of humor and I appreciate others with the same.  I guess that is all for now... will wait until I hear more from you.

 I got the following response which sealed the deal that this guy was a scam.  Completely different sentence structure, and if you'll notice above I asked him the following questions: "Are you from Texas originally?"  and "Are you an active church goer?" Both are simple and direct questions and neither are answered in his response.

Hi [redacted], Thanks for your email. after reading your message and your profile i knew we shared a lot in common so i decided to officially introduce myself to you as i want to get to know you too. Am [name redacted] 47years old, Am single Divorced, I have just had a life on my own....doing what i know how to do best is honesty and living my life to the fullest. and i grew up to understand the principles of life and the truth that follows it and i have made a vow to my self and God that i will forever remain honest and truthful to the things i say and do...cause truth and honesty is the only key to success. but its very hard to go about, But i still try not to brake my vow. and i do seek all i want with all my heart and the truth of it.
 
Well, i am a very sincere and honest person, caring, kind, social, smart, intelligent, passionate, friendly, romantic, and i believe in the truth and honest of love. I am really a very sincere person when it comes to sharing feelings and emotions with that special person and i really am down to heart honest about the things i say and do cause i don't like hurting peoples feelings, cause everyone has a chance to laugh, so why do i make them sad. I am really very easy to get along with, fun to be with and am very adaptive and communicative when it comes to conversant conversation. a and my life is based on the truth and honest of self personality , I’m reliable, cheerful, communicative, friendly, very optimistic and romantic, balanced, not conflict, and I often smile (and I like it). I am easy to deal with and very responsible. I appreciate highly faithfulness, honesty, open hearted cordiality, considerateness, tenderness, intelligence and a good sense of humor in people around me.
I love children , and i am ready to accept any woman who is coming into my life with kid's i will love and treat them as my own kid's, pets, nature and all living creature as well as poetry, music and to travel. I like to read a lot, gladly attend a theater, opera, concerts, cinema and exhibitions. I have a very active life. I dream to meet my soul mate to have happy family, home which is full of harmony, agreement and happiness....I would really like to get to know a lot about you and learn something’s with you cause you seems to be kind of ready in getting to know my kind of person and hopefully we can meet in person soon..With time we will get to know each others feelings, motives and intention towards each other and it will help us grow knowing each other and trusting each other....
The woman I would like to meet must be reliable, kind, interesting, well manner, decent person with sense of humor and serious intentions. she will be able to accept and understand me as I am in reality and oriented into the long-time relationships which will start with nice friendship and, possibly, lead to lead to true love and creation of the family.
 
Feel free to ask me any questions what you are interesting in - I'll be happy to answer all of them. And, of course you can tell me everything that you are ready to share with me – I'm a good listener, too ... Looking forward to hearing from you soon,

 First off... what the fuck?!?!  This email makes no sense at all.  Also, let me point out that using truth, honesty, and other similar adjectives 17 times in one email is just plain odd.  It's as if by saying it many many times I will, of course, trust him and send him my bank account info and routing numbers.  I will be emailing him back but I don't even know where to start.  Obviously there will be a lot of chain yanking.
