Ah romance....no wait EPIC FAIL Lulz


There's something about me clearly. And that's not a good thing, it's a bad something about me, it's probably my uninterest in fashion...or something.

This post is just going to sound really self pitying, and it sort of is! Listen to my woe.

So if you've read some of my posts before I usually ramble on about ideas or aspects of life or something, and one of those was actually about internet dating. Well, using a website to meet people, not literally dating someone over the Internet, buying her animals for her Farmville or whatever. Not yet anyway.

I used a website, which I joined a few months back - at first like an excited child I rampaged through it, sending messages willy nilly asking people "Hi bby, u got cam?" and "a/s/l?" - well not quite, but you get the jist.
Anyway over the last 1-2 months I've really chilled out, going on it maybe weekly to see what's there, getting bored, sighing alot, and then getting back to work. Or what have you.

Well the whole thing is grating me a bit. All these girls with promises of "message me if you want to know more" so obviously I oblige their request with a friendly "TELL ME MORE THINGS ABOUT YOU THAT WERE NOT LISTED" - and they don't even reply! They look at my profile (the semi-stalkerish functions the site allows tells me this) clearly think I look horrific, and don't reply. #Pied

Then the best one is, I see someone I know - whether from real actual life, from Twitter, or even from work. I don't realise at first and so click on their profile. Well that's it, I'm in too deep already as they will be able to see that. So what the hell do I do next?! That's it, it's a commitment to make - do I simply leave their profile, indicating I've seen them, I've read their profile and decided I'll meekly back away and pretend it never happened?
Or do I embrace the fact we're both here, both single, and both know one another to a certain level. Do I make a light hearted joke (WE'RE BOTH SO LONELY LOL), or do I just say something to chat, to show that I'm super cool with this whole internet dating business. Or the 3rd one, do I flirt?

I've tried all 3, and let me tell you - quite a few girls are just mean! Even them, the ones I (sort of) know, just ignore me! In fact I think one blocked me!! Fuming I was.
They feel their above me clearly - both on a dating site, but nooooo she would never consider lonely little me, pathetic single Dan. She only went on their for 'banter' or something.
Or worse than that, the ones who do reply, cool we have a bit of a laugh etc - I then just suggest a drink (why not, we're both single right, it's just a drink not a life commitment...or is it...) and they still say no! #UBERMEGAPIED

It takes alot out of you, this single business sometimes. It's not like I'm not trying to be a loser forever, but it seems the world is adamant that every Friday night will be me alone in my flat, crying into my Baileys whilst watching Hannibal. Fine. Fuck you life.
So yeah, as said, I really think there's something about me (insert, yes your ugly face zings here)
