When you do online dating, you get a vast assortment of weirdos and wackos.  In many respects, it is like a circus side show.  But, had I not experienced it first hand, I would not have realized that there were that many dysfunctional people in the world.

Emotional commitment is vital to a relationship.  If one person in the relationship has not made any emotional commitments to the relationship then the relationship is doomed.  After all, a one sided relationship is not a relationship at all.  Rather, it is just one persons dreams being acted out and nothing more.

Well, it was only a matter of time before I ran across someone who was a right wing extremist.  And, this week was the week.

Before she would even consider going out with me, I had to reassure her that I was a Christian and a Republican.  When we met at the restaurant, she didn’t offer a hug or even a handshake.  “Cold”, I thought.

She didn’t like the fact that I worked for the State and was upset when I told her that I didn’t have time during the day to listen to Rush.  At that point in time, I could tell that this was going to be one of my worst dates.

When we got ready to leave the restaurant, I was going to walker her to her car.  But when we got to the door to leave, she bolted for her car like Nancy Pelosi was chasing her.

Well, OK!!  Once again I am grateful for parking lot surveillance cameras.  At least, I didn’t get maced.

Lately, I have been getting spam where the author claims to be well educated and multi-talented.  Not only did one individual claim to be a Neurobiologist and an Engineer and an Accountant and a Surgeon, he also studied metallurgy and conducting.

Now, this isn’t just an isolated incident.  I have been getting many of these.  And, they all  claim to have worked in Peru and Africa and are presently working for a major US corporation.

Now, I don’t know what this is all about but I suspect it is some sort of major scam. So, I just delete their entries from my blog.

I once dated a woman who loved the musical “Le Moulin Rouge”.  Not only did she own the DVD, but we had to watch it together several times.

Now, while I have several movies that I enjoy watching from time to time, there aren’t any that I would consider watching on a weekly basis.  What’s more, I considered her obsession to indicate an emotional instability.  And, as time went on, this proved to be the case.

Lesson learned.

When I first started dating, I made a point of introducing my new girlfriend to my friends and family members.  After all, such introductions would help to cement the relationship and show a genuine interest on my part.

But, after several new girlfriends, it became apparent that such introductions only tended to confuse my friends and family members.  This confusion resulted in the names getting mixed up, which created some embarrassing moments.

Now, I am reluctant to introduce them until we have been dating for several months.  And even then, I am somewhat skeptical.

Some women prefer to date losers!  I guess if you are dating a loser, you don’t have to worry about your own imperfections.  After all, if you are dating a loser, you are superior to them.

Of course, if you are dating a loser, you too are a loser.

It was our first date, and we were both trying to get to know a little about each other.  My date, who had been married 3 times before, asked me if I was “for real?”

I told her that I was, but was surprised at the question.  Apparently, after her third marriage, she has learned to distrust people.

After the date, she dumped me from her dating website and I never heard from  her again.  And, since she never told me her last name or even gave me her phone number or email address, I had no way to contact her.  I guess I was too real.

I guess that I have too many assets because most women think that I am too good to be true.  I don’t say that to flatter my self, I say that because that is what some women have told me.  And, because I seem too good to be true, I must have some glaring flaw like being a mass murderer.  In fact, one woman dumped me because I was too good for her.

What ever.

Yesterday, I had over 10,000 spams on this site, all for discount drugs.  Today, I had over 6,000 spams for discount drugs.  Fortunately, I have a good spam filter on my web site.  🙂
