    Worst Pick Up Attempt EVER

     Worst Pick Up Attempt EVER
    We’ll start with this dazzling picture. Six flags, sunglasses, pursed lips, nice. Who’s the terrible photographer that took this one?? And this was his ONLY picture.

    But he sent me an instant message, and nothing on his profile sent up red flags… To be honest, his profile was about as exciting to me as a nap. But, I’m trying to keep an open mind about dating and you never do know what you’re going to get. Maybe my prince charming is sitting in a boring dude wrapper…? Who knows…

    The conversation went like this:

    Clueless:helloMe:hello

    Clueless:how are you doing?

    Me:pretty good. yourself?

    Clueless: doing great

    Clueless: whats ur name?

    Me:jami

    Me:yours?

    Clueless: ronnie

    Me:nice to meet you ronnie

    Clueless: same here

    Clueless:we live close

    Me:yea…

    Clueless: have you met anyone from here?

    Me:i have. you?

    Clueless:yes

    Clueless:thats a great red sweater in on of ur pics

    Clueless:yesterday was the day for it

    Clueless:it was sooo cold

    Me:thank you. it’s from my brother’s wedding.

    Clueless:lol

    Clueless:wanna meet?

    Me:i don’t think so.

    Clueless:ok

    (insert 15 minutes of time here.) I closed the window and moved on. And then…


    Clueless:i wish i cd make luv to u

    Me:WHAT?! dude. no.

    Clueless:sighs

    Clueless:you are sooo sexy

    Me:never going to happen

    Clueless:illl buy u dinner

    Me:please leave me alone.

    Clueless:ok

    Clueless:bye

    DEAR LORD. How?! Why?! I don’t understand what I’m doing to deserve this?? Is this my karmic retribution for writing this blog? If that’s the case, ok… I’ll take it. Because that’s only fair, right?

    *sigh*

    Dude. Just… WOW.
