POF Journal Entry One

It's been about four days now since I joined POF.  My friend suggested it as he was finding quite a bit of success with his profile.  But then again, he has a yakuza gangster tattoo on his left arm/shoulder, so he gets the Queen street fetishists going after him.  The dude gets serious action from all these girls - and that's what he wants in his current stage of life so good for him.  I, however, am looking for meaning beyond the physical.  Yes, I cannot believe I just wrote that, but it's true.  We all have to grow up someday and I guess I grew up.  So, since meeting women is rather difficult, I thought I'd give it a try.

Three women contacted me.

First woman - I missed the part on her profile where she states she is only looking for Chinese/Cantonese men.  I sent her my apologies for the miscommunication and wished her all the best.

Second woman - she seems nice and really genuine.  Her picture was really sweet and I was quickly taken with her natural beauty.  Definitely no games here with this person.  But she only put up one picture of her face and describes her body type as "average".  Clearly a warning sign that there is a potential danger she is delusional and far from average.  Apparently, POF "average" women are generally heavier than the men they meet.  I'll see for myself as I'm meeting her this Sunday for coffee.

Third woman - wow, talk about defensive and insecure.  Describes her self as "strong" but she did not come across this way.  She took a witty and humourous email message and turned it into a a highly defensive attack about me being shallow.  Hey, quite often, I mess up so I was open to the fact I could have been dumb with what I wrote.  So, I showed two very intelligent and well-spoken, truly "strong" women what I wrote, and they both, independently said that she is an insecure, defensive person.  Too bad, because if her pictures were true to her likeness in person, she was actually quite cute. 

I showed my friend's wife my profile pics and apparently none of them do me justice.  She suggested I post some topless pics to show off my athletic and gorgeous body - but I think that could potentially backfire on me.  Perhaps later, if I decide to give up on this thing.

More entries to come.
