Adventures in dating...sites
So, I signed up a while back for a specialty dating website. It is meant to be a site for people attracted to plus sized people. I signed up for two reasons.
1. I'm a plus sized person
2. Since I self-sabotage ALL the time, I figured if I started seeing someone that liked me heavy I would end up dropping weight. Either way it seemed win/win.
I am sure there are people on there that are legitimately interested in more womanly shaped women, but there are also a lot of predators on there. I don't mean of the sexual variety, but the kind that seek out someone vulnerable and build them up, draw them in, and then start scamming them. I am an intelligent, professional woman and it only takes a moment to spot these people. In the past, I have just stopped speaking to them but then I thought... How fun would it be to share the ridiculousness online.
Here we have our first candidate - The profile is actually very well written so when I sent the message I wasn't certain what I'd get.

Some would say this is the hard part…I say it is an opportunity!
I am an upbeat and fun person. I do love to joke around and have fun, would be nice to find someone drama free and fun. I try to separate work and play as best as I can. I believe in the theory of working smart and playing hard!
I am probably one of the most open-minded individuals you will ever meet and love to try new and exciting things. I can be a total goofball and then serious if the situation calls for it.
P. S. - I THINK DRINKS / COFFEE IS THE BEST MEET AND GREET TO BREAK THE ICE :-)
A fun first date- First few dates are still the "learning stage" of each other right??...Why not make it fun? Why do the boring dinner or movie...I wanna see how you handle some laughs at a comedy club (front row !!) or maybe down @ game works while we play some games and sip on some drinks, loosen up and have fun right? Maybe a walk around the city if the weather permits. Or my fav to find a hole in the wall bar that plays live music and has good food
So, what we have here is good casual sentence structure. He tosses in slang words "goofball" and tosses in the @ sign instead of typing "at". Perhaps a tadbit narcissistic, but that can be fun. Mr. "comeflywithme47" showed up in my match list so I thought... what the hell, I'll drop him a line. I got a response that triggered my B.S. meter and that is what triggered my thought to at least make this fun. In each post I'll be starting with my email and then posting their response complete with some snark or corrections. I hope whoever comes across this enjoys it.
