When I first started with this online dating thing, I remember telling some of my friends how shallow it makes me feel sometimes. Looking at people's photos and not really considering them unless I find them attractive - when I think about it that makes me feel terrible. But if we're talking about dating someone and hopefully finding a relationship with them, you've got to be attracted right?
Well, I wasn't attracted to OmokshO based on his photo.
After reading his profile, I had no reason to think differently. Two immediate deal breakers: his listed intention for being on the site is "Wants To Date But Nothing Serious" and for the want children question he "Does Not Want Children".
There was nothing wrong with the message he sent me. But considering I'm not attracted to him, nor are we even looking for the same things out of the site, I simply deleted the message. (Again, sounds kind of rude, but it's the reality of this process. I get no response from plenty of messages I sent out so it goes both ways.) I didn't think much else of OmokshO.
Then he messaged me again the next day.
And the day that followed.
And the day after that.
Each time, I simply deleted the message. But I remember thinking on the 4th day in a row "Wow. This guy either really doesn't get the message or how he seriously doubts the site's ability to send me his messages."
It was quiet from OmokshO for a couple days. Then this morning, I got this message:
hey morning,
every time i look at your pictures, it gives me a sense of being grounded. the simplicity, dashness of angelic looks. sweetheart, caring, wearing your heart on the sleeves.
it gives me a reason to look at you everyday. wish life could be more real than this.
i wish you all the luck and hope you find what you looking for in life ........
god bless !
All I got out of that is that he looks at me every day.
Seriously? And this was meant to convince me to have direct contact with you? Oh dear . . .
