Fun with #OkCupid: Time to say goodbye?
So yeah, my last week on OKC has been the worst one yet. No, like seriously. Like, I'm not even saying that so you all come gather round and say oohhhhh I wanna make you feel better. I don't want to feel better, I'm just more perplexed as to what my next doable action is. Looky looky, this is my problem ...
I keep getting recognized ... like OFF THE BAT!!!
Dude, did you see the email from earlier this week? OMG ... this dude was so not nice!
Alrite, so this is my constant. My spot has pretty much been epicly blown up on OKC. I need to know what I should do next. I thought about switching sites, but I think that's kinda lame - OKC is the nerdiest of all nerdy dating sites. If I am going to have my lover talk nerdy to me, it's gotta be on there.
Scrap the profile, start over fresh?
Again seems lame. My pictures are still my pictures - I have a weird look. It'll just be the same shoe on another foot. Wait, I don't think that made sense. K, just going with it ... moving along.
Instead, I am going to update my profile entirely. Like straight up, down, left, and right - see if I can be a bit more sincere and just honest. If life is reflective, said changes should bring out some more sincere and honest dudes and not just ones that want this quirky chick to write about them.
I'm going to test it out. I have nothing to lose at this point. I'm feeling so blahhhhhhhh about OKC entirely right now, yet I understand this is the most painfree way I could possibly date someone. The whole bar thing isn't going to happen with me. I try - but I lose interest so quickly. Boys. Boys. Boys.
Alrite, gonna revamp my profile this evening and see what magical events transpire from it.
::Fingers crossed::
On another note, have an OKC date on Monday with a hockey player. For reals! He's taking me to a Kings game, clearly hahahahaa ... kinda rad! I LOVVEEEE hockey games, and sporting events in general. I'm not a sports fan per say, but just enjoy drinking beer and screaming at the top of my lungs.

Wanna date me? No, like seriously ... I'm being DEAD SERIOUS right now! Please date me. Your mom will love me! Seriously! We totally just skyped about it ... she says hi, and that she's sick of doing your laundry, but she's also glad that you're wiping better after going number two. Look ma, no skid marks!

As always, that flare for dramatics. There was no reason to be end all be all. I understand you are telling a story and need to draw the reader in, but others have done so without resorting to underhanded parlor tricks. Two people recognized you, mate. Two out of how many thousands of people on that bloody site? I doubt it is a cause for panic. But perhaps what you need is a change of assumptions. Instead of only going after blokes that are 90% match or more, perhaps you can try glancing below that curve. It does not mean you would be settling, but I think maybe there is a reason for the saying "Opposites Attract". Try it on for size, not everyone has to like or be interested in what you do. Unless you are looking to surround yourself with Yes men.
thank you for your input.
