Fishing...Day 1

Well today has been yet another one of those days. It was my first day back in work since I finished for Christmas and it was just as rubbish as I’d expected. I really do hate that job. Fast forward to 2 years time when I’m stressing about my dissertation and hey presto...completo & qualified BOOOOM!

Anyway, you don’t care about that and neither do I at the minute; I want to tell you all about my progress on the dating website I mentioned yesterday. I’ve still not written up a profile but at 1.20am this morning I uploaded three photos, they’re not anything special...Me in the pub...me on the sofa with Pablo...me in a restaurant. In 22hours I’ve had 34 Private Messages and 72 Meet Me’s hahaha LOSERS!

Virtually all of the PM’s have a heading of Hi / Hiya / Hello, these guys really are original aren’t they! Most of the PM’s are quite obviously a standard template they send to every unsuspecting girl. Here’s one of the most recent...

“Just had a read of your profile and you sound very nice and seem to be looking for the same things as me.
If you think we could be a match I would love to hear from you.
If not then I wish you luck in your search and have a great 2012”

I’m going to give that one a miss yah!

But here’s one of the first I received and it should make you giggle, it certainly made me laff. I’ve copied it exactly as it was written to me...

‘Hi there How are you? How has your Christmas holiday been? Did you enjoy it?
I like your profile and you look very attractive in your profile picture I have just moved to ******* from Ireland at the end of October and I like it a lot.
My name is Chris’

So....is there any chance I’m actually going to meet anyone with half a brain or is every guy going to be another Mr Fit or Irish Chris?

Wish me luck...I’m definitely going to need it.
