| Topic: Unified Field Theory Of Dating Site Deception | |

For many years now (at least two), I have been puzzling over a couple of different enigmatic enigmas re: people's behavior on dating sites.
Enigma One is the ever-present, ever-increasing number of profiles in which it is claimed "I am looking for someone intelligent," although it should be pointed out that "intelligent" is usually misspelled (this is probably an indicator of something or other) -- "intelegint" or "entulijennt" or along those lines. One didn't even bother with it, and just said she was looking for someone "smurt." (This is in OGP, you can go look it up.) And yet -- the ones who CLAIM to be looking for someone inntelaginet never really seem to be doing so. The reason I say that is because it's clear to me that we have a number of very intelligent men on this site, perhaps as many as six or seven. None of them ever seems to get anywhere with the ladies, though, despite the fact that a.) billions of women claim they want someone with brains, and b.) these guys have brains. So there must be something else going on. Enigma Two is the fact that no one seems to be able to write a decent profile. Let's not get into that too deeply; there have been volumes written on this subject (the only thing more reviled throughout human history has been that clear Pepsi they tried to foist on us some years back), and anyone who wants to know more about this can, once again, go look at OGP for further information. It occurred to me today that these two enigmas are related, perhaps one and the same even. A revelation! Because now I understand -- the people who write bad profiles do so because that's all they CAN do. They don't have the skills or the desire or the thesaurus to create a profile that would be more interesting than, say, the nutritional information on a box of raisins. They're just not all that smurt. But then, why would they want to claim they're LOOKING FOR someone intelligent? Because you're SUPPOSED to be looking for someone intelligent. But really intelligent people scare them; they don't WANT to have anything to do with anyone who actually HAS a functioning brain. But they can't SAY that because it "looks bad" -- we're all supposed to value traits and characteristics other than the superficial, and some of us do, to an extent, but let's face it -- there's a place for a physical attraction too, and some of us see that (and unapologetically so) as perfectly legitimate. But -- if my theory holds up (and I'm looking for funding from a Swedish institute), I believe what we will find is that the people who write bad profiles ONLY want people who also write bad profiles. They feel THREATENED by anyone with any greater level of profile-creative ability than they themselves have, which is to say none. Because if you're smurt, you'll be a lot harder to control and manipulate. And they don't want to have to work for that; they want someone dropped into their laps who will unroll into a fine, sturdy new doormat with WELCOME printed in big bold letters on one side. Keep in mind this is just a theory; no statistically significant information has been compiled up to this point. It'll take somebody REALLY smurt to do that. |

"Enigmatic Enigmas"????????...Seriously....
Are you TRYING to drive chicks away? Lex...Dude! I understand ramming home the superiority thing...like I said before...I dummy down A LOT!!!! Apparently you are gonna hold out for some supermodel who is the spell checker for Webster's and what ever thesaurus you got on the back of your toilet. Vegas odds say...you are in for a hella long wait. Loosen up bro...consider taking a woman to an event you ain't no damned good at...(I donno..a roller rink or walking in the park)... It is obvious that you can rule the conversation.....(I am the same way)... You gotta at least give the birds a fighting chance before you shoot them down.... |

Having a bad day?
 The reason I say that is because it's clear to me that we have a number of very intelligent men on this site, perhaps as many as six or seven. Once again, I think you underestimate people. I think there are more men than that on here who qualify as intelligent. Enigma Two is the fact that no one seems to be able to write a decent profile. When you say “no one”, you ARE including yourself in that broad statement. I disagree about there not being any decent profiles, but this is my subjective impression. But then, why would they want to claim they're LOOKING FOR someone intelligent? Maybe they are looking for something they themselves lack. Because you're SUPPOSED to be looking for someone intelligent. Who made that rule? But really intelligent people scare them; they don't WANT to have anything to do with anyone who actually HAS a functioning brain. Maybe it’s not that really intelligent people scare them, but that some of the more intelligent people shoot down the less intelligent ones. I’m going to embarrass myself here and admit that I had an interest in you when I joined last August. I was smart enough to at least read your profile and follow your posts before doing anything as stupid as contacting you. By doing so, I found out that I didn’t meet your qualifications. When I came back to the site a few months ago, I once again read your profile and have seen your posts from time to time and have to say that you don’t come across as intimidating in your posts or profile (as you say you have been told), but that you do come across as a bit negative toward those you see as less intellectual than yourself. In emails, you’re completely different and come across as more compassionate. You’re attractive and smart, but a bit negative about other people’s intelligence and finding someone compatible and I think that is why women shy away from you. Ok, now that I’ve pi$$ed you off and made sure you won’t be as nice to me… go ahead and let me have it. I know you’re going to fire off at me now. |

Most of those people that can't spell are probably feriners.

So....I guess my profile should read....
' Beer....good. Boobs....good. Loud Rock Music....Good. ' That should pretty well sum it up. Maybe if I change it I'll actually get an email. After all...aren't most women completely convinced that most men are alike anyway??? |

Who made that rule? No one actually made that rule. But think about it. How many guys or gals are going to respond to someone who says they want someone who looks like Barbie and is dumber than a box of hair?? 99.9% of the profiles are written with a template that has all the cliched stuff in there. 'Kind...witty...charming....knows how to treat a lady/guy...blah blah blah...' Until someone who meets those criteria actually comes along. Then it's ' You are just too good/nice ' for me. Also known as ' Run for the hills. Someone actually IS all those things!!! ' |

My own problem has nothing to do with the profiles.
Wanna watch somebody disapear... Like real quick. Email anybody close to your geographical area. Zip... Bingo... Boingo. They are gone... Never to be heard from again. I know I ain't THAT ugly. |

Uh-oh! No response. Ok.
1 – You said what you wanted to say and have now gone off to post elsewhere and forgotten all about this. 2 – You’re computer crashed/you just discovered you’re completely out of your favorite snack food and are making a quick trip to the store/after being on the site for so long, you have finally achieved full zombiehood and are now sitting with eyes glazed over and all intelligent thought gone and cannot respond. 3 – After reading my comments and not realizing I sometimes fail at trying to convey what I mean in a nice way, have printed off a copy off my profile photo and are using it for target practice or have glued it to a puck and are on your way to the rink for a little hockey practice with my face. If I came across in an unkind way, that was not my intention and I apologize. |
