More Match.com conversations...

The headline on my match.com profile is "Men are so Easy...Neil Diamond said it best." (from this song) It's a joke meant to attract the kinda fellas who like absurd, quirky gals like me. Yesterday I get this email:

If we were so easy you wouldn't be single.

Oh, snap! Who is this fella who doesn’t get the joke? Well, his name is Eddie; he’s 42 years old and looking for a “classy, sexy and fun” lady he can show off all his Karate moves to. After reading his profile I can just sense that he’s the kind of guy who likes a simple kinda gal without opinions and heavily drugged on anti-depressants. So, I wrote:

No, I'm single because I'm the one that's not easy.

And Mr. Potcallingthekettleblack wrote this:

Perhaps you should loosen up a bit

Yep, I’m one of those uptight women who won’t be a fun slutty whore for a charming fellow like you. I just suck. So I wrote back:

I just find that men want it to be fun all the time. And when I'm not, as all people are from time to time, I get labeled as difficult or not easy.

I don't really think men are easy, but I do like poking a little fun at them from time to time. Lighten up. :)

And then Mr. Personality 2000 sent me this gem of a letter that single-handedly restored my faith in men:

We are very simple....All we want is a sexy woman who'll screw our brains out and not get on our nerves and we're good to go.

Yes, I'm sure many men would like this, but being that women aren't Fembots, all women must get on his nerves. I was ready to end this correspondence:

Well, good luck with that.

And he sent me off with a polite:

thanks, good luck to you too.

Yes, Eddie, good luck to us both.
