I've never met someone online this blatantly honest.
Subject: shall we?
Message: go steady?
Shouldn't we all be hesitant to go out with a guy who is this desperate? I know most people think that online dating attracts only desperate people. Some of that may be true, but not always. Maybe a girl should at least be given the chance to get to know a guy before she hopes into going steady with one.
less honesty soon,

Repetition
Isn't the old saying that third times a charm? Well this guy obviously thinks that maybe the second time will be a charm.
Message:
How you doin IM joe nice to meet you. Whered you move from?
Have we all become too busy to type correctly? Maybe I will start giving typing lessons with my speed of 60WPM. I'm sure many people would increase their typing accuracy also.
Follow up:
Right on , im asumin in restaurant manigment. You like anyother sports? Im joe nice to meet you.
Joe, although I am very flattered by your responses. I will not be replying to you anymore. I like how you left that poor comma in desolation. Manigment? Is that like color pigment but in the color of a man? asumin? Is this a new type of Jasmine spiced tea? Incase I missed it before, his name is joe and he's glad to meet me.
Until next time,

First and foremost
Dear online daters:
Please do not be boring, bland, and colorless. Online dating is a chance for online marketing about yourself. I can not tell you how many times the subject of a first email: hi, Hey, Hi there, Hi, Hello, hey, and hello have popped into my in box. Do you think these really stand out to me and grab my attention?!?
My first email example comes from a user in Greek mythology. Let's just call him Constantinople to keep his identity secret. He must think that he's magical and golden because his mother was tricked by a Greek God to sleep with his mother to produce him.
Subject: hi
Message: HEy whats up?
Where did you learn your grammar? Did you skip high school? Hay is for horses and it certainly does not have two capitol letters and one lower case. Second, is your keyboard missing the apostrophe key? Maybe you were just too tired, drunk, or lazy to type it to make a good first impression on me. You snooze you loose and especially with that amazing subject that caught my eye.
Follow up email:
Just watching TV now about to head off to bed. So besides running....what do you like to do?
I see that you also did not learn about sentence fragments or run on sentences in high school. I'm also very excited that you are going to bed because I don't have to read anymore incorrect sentences from you for tonight. What do you like to do? I give you a few bonus points for actually using a ? but minus those points for the four periods in a row....

Introduction
Welcome to a blog inspired by online dating websites and some of my closest friends. I often find laughter and humor in many of the emails I receive from various websites.
Many of us find ourselves alone, lost, hopeless, or just desperately searching for love. Busy schedules and jobs force singles to look for dates and mates online. Is it always worth it? Do you really think you'll find the perfect relationship if you just pay that measly $29.95 for one month or $14.95 a month for 6 months? I highly doubt it. My philosophy has always been that if it's not free, then I'm not signing up. Maybe this is why I feel that I must share my thoughts and emails from some of my experiences.
I encourage you to chuckle, laugh, share, and enjoy with others!
