My Match.com subscription ended, so now I'm back to OKC. Never had much luck with it before, but damn, I'm stuck. I'm pretty tired of nothing going on in my dating life. At this point I'm not too picky--I just want some guy to take me out if for no other reason than to boost my confidence so I'm not giving off a depressed vibe all the time (which I'm sure is not helping the situation). So what was the first message I got after firing my account back up? It was from a 21-year old self-described "video game nerd," saying "wow, you are absolutely gorgeous!"
*sigh*
In other news, three people have told me in the last two days that they thought I lost weight. While this should be a compliment, because the reality is that I have not changed weight in a long time, it actually makes me wonder what kind of porker I am in these people's heads/memories. Commenting on someone's weight is really never a compliment, so let's all just lay off the subject, mmmkay?
Trying to stay positive,

You've never struck me as a porker! Maybe you were wearing something that made you look thinner. Even a different hairstyle or blush that emphasizes cheekbones can make you look thinner!
ReplyDeleteI'd give you words of encouragement about OkCupid, but I'm having a hard time convincing myself after the umpteenth "u look hot want 2 chat" message.
Come to think of it, if all I'm looking for is an ego boost, messages from any guy (even if he's an idiot or way too old or way to young or whatever) telling me I'm gorgeous can't hurt, right?
