Let's be honest anyone who has tried internet dating, know that it is a scary place to be! Who is real and who is not, what about all the old pictures and misrepresentation, let's not even get into all the angry disillusioned people online who sour the cheery optimistic ones! ( I ran across a few of them, ladies whatever you do stay away from these guys) I could go on all day about all the frogs a poor princess will have to pucker up for to find a prince. The reality is you will meet more people then you would without it, you just have to keep your sense of humor about it and keep it moving.
Enough of that nobody cares about all the weird guys, the old men, or the half naked jersey shore guys I had to fend off to find my prince. The truth is I was just about to cancel my membership and drink some bitter grape juice when a random note was dropped in my box. I must admit I ignored it. In fact I laughed at it. The guy had stated that he was in Cleveland on business and would love to get together while he was in town. Yeah sounded sketchy to me too, internet booty call anybody? Needless to say he went straight to trash, after I checked out all his pictures and scanned his profile.( I never said I wasn't shallow)
Lucky for me this particular frog was rather persistent and redeemed himself with a witty and engaging email so me being the open minded gal that I am gave him my facebook address and opened up the door to future conversations. (I am such a sweetheart) From there I watched as he made witty statements, liked all my inane chatter, and read all my blogs, gotta love a guy that reads your chatter! (I love you guys for reading my chatter.) Fast forward this blog is getting long, since he is an unfortunate resident of St.Louis (everybody from Chicago laughs at St.Louis) a lot of our time was spent texting, calling and skyping. The cool thing about long distance match ups is you really have to talk. Without the physical distraction you get a chance to dig deep into who the person is, their character, their thoughts, dreams, and ideals. Lucky for him he was easy to talk to, he made me laugh and I enjoyed his voice. (did I mention I was shallow?) This went on for about 2 -3 months, hey ladies got to be cautious, before he planned a trip out to my remote part of the world for our first date. Let me tell you it was worth the wait!! But that monster is a blog for another day....Find your love monsters, find your love.
