Knockers and Surprises

It is shocking (to me anyway) how sexually forward people will be.  I am no prude - far from it.  But when you don't know someone it just seems unnatural, unwelcome and unwarranted.  Somewhere out there must be women who it works for because there are plenty of men who are using these tactics.  I have some quite shocking stories from the past that I'll save for another post.  For tonight, I want to share a couple of more recent messages.

Earlier today I came across the profile for "signorestud".  He had a cute photo and what I thought was a clever little blurb in his profile:

"So I dated a girl for a few years and then decided to do the "pea" test. I placed a frozen grean pea under her mattress to see if she would have an uncomfortable sleep. In the morning she woke up refreshed and I knew right then and there that I hadn't found my princess just yet. So, here I am, on a dating site, looking for my princess. Could it be YOU?"

I decided to send a message and tried to run with his little story.  I wrote:

"Hi, Great smile :)  So besides a being a sensitive sleeper, what are you looking for in your princess?"

Only an hour or so later, I already had a response!  Excellent I thought when I saw a message in my inbox.  I read:

"someone with a nice set of knockers ;) "

No further comment on signorestud.

Earlier in the week, "fawdar0" first messaged me.  His profile came across as goofy but kind of sweet.  His first message was perfectly fine:

"Hello and Good Morning, how are you today so far? Name is Nick! :) You have a pretty smile btw"

His second message seemed okay:

" [My weekend] was awesome! Beautiful weather and all :) was at cottage n then had a baptism on Sunday! Whatcha do? I'm on construction project manager in interior side of things and you? What nationality are you? Ever had a Greek guy :)) "

I know for some people culture is important and it can be important to date someone of the same culture, or strange for some to date someone of another culture.  I've dated men of different races, nationalities, cultures and said so in my response.  But no, I hadn't dated a Greek guy before.  His next message read:

"never huh well I got a bigg surprise for you :)) "

And that was it!  MAYBE in the context of a conversation, such an innuendo could make sense to me as a method of flirting.  But in this context, it only came off as slimy and stupid.

I guess I could have just written back that I don't like surprises.
