a long read, but worth every second. :D

so, you all are going to LOVE this. this is some email correspondence from a random dude at match dot com directed to my gorgeous sweet sister, sarah. btw...i didn't want to post his photo, but if cheech and peter (from family guy) had a strung out bald short love child that is what this dude looks like.
_______________________________________________

first email from the creepo. titled: Howdy.

Howdy. Thanks for takin' a look at my profile. What stands out about your profile: You're a solid Christian (that's what it sounds like to me) but you're also a balanced person who enjoys life. I'm looking for a Christian woman who I can lock-in with spiritually, run the race,
and look Heavenward, since Jesus is Coming Soon.
That said, I live life to the fullest, squeezing every drop out of life, and my cup of delicious darkoast coffee. Look, let's just be real here: My favorite foods include Mexican, Thai, Italian, Chinese, and Mexican. I love coffee, only the best coffee. I like my women like I like my coffee, but I'll save that for the next email (insert laugh here).

Hope you're enjoying Colorado's peaks God so beautifully sculpted and carved. You must be beautiful too, if only because He created the Rocky Mountains and you!
Maybe that was too flattering- I'm not Hitch, I'm a real, genuine guy.

Here's a fun question: What do you think of wining and dining?

If you read this, thanks. Sincerely, with blessings, -E.

and his second email after (mysteriously) not hearing back from my sister. hmmm...i wonder why? titled: We match 20 ways, if that matters.

We match 20 ways. That may mean something, or maybe not. Anyway, if my profile pictures are lame, I just uploaded a new one.
I don't have 18 friends taking pictures of me all the time, so, that's why I don't have at least (18) profile pictures, and why I signed up on match.com in the first place. I signed up in February '09, and have sent out maybe 30 or 40 winks. Low yield, I guess. I've always been a little hard on myself, but I can't figure why I haven't heard from any of you yet. I didn't think God allowed me to be born just so I could feel rejected by so many people, and live a pathetic life full of lonliness. I'm starting to get some crazy ideas about all you ladies.
I even let my friend and my sister! help me with my profile and "who I'm looking for".

One of the more possible things I am suspecting is that you females have absolutely *Ridiculous* ideas of what your "perfect" man is, and what he's going to offer you. (As for me, I'm not attracted to white women, but, at least I didn't limit body type to "trim super model" on what I'm looking for.) So, I'm being quite gracious. I'm enough of a Christian to know not to endanger myself foolishly with women other than Christian-Protestant and Christian-Other. I must end up with a gal who brings me closer to the Lord, and that's not asking too much. However, I'm starting to wonder just how "mean" some of you ladies are. Or maybe "cruel."

Sarah, I would much rather have you tell me what you don't like about me, and what's wrong with me, than never hearing from you.

I'm going to consider pitching a new TV commercial idea to match.com :

"Go ahead, it's okay to look, as long as you aren't planning on meeting anybody. And, if you're a guy who isn't perfect, forget it!"

So, maybe I got across to you how frustrated I am. I'm starting to have a better idea of how men become homosexuals. It's probably not their fault, but maybe it was because of some cruel, mean woman with unrealistic expectations of what a man should be. So, if I become a more pathetic man because of match.com, then I might as well cancel my subcription right now.
If you're reading this, then maybe you read this email. You're all just leaving me hangin'. As of now, about 20 or 30 eligible (Christian) bachlorettes are simply ignoring me.

Objectively, I can't see any reason why online dating wouldn't work,
as long as the people involved have some truth, honesty and character.
My venting is done. Hope you hate me more now. -E

and finally my beloved sister responds with this. titled: wow.

Oh dear. That was an intense e-mail. I'm sorry I didn't write you back as soon as you wanted me too. But ok here's why it won't work. #1 you live too far. #2 your too short. #3 your e-mails are too much for me. There ya go. You will find someone don't worry! But I don't think it's me.

Sarah

the creepers response. titled: Thanks for your honesty.

Thank you for being honest, and replying to my email. I am curious what a good email looks like. I won't go on with too much "Eriko apologetics" but I've spent much time in Colorado; Grand Junction 70 + times (family),
a summer in R.M.N.P, and eight months in Gypsum (I'm still holding on to my CO drivers license from that recent session) and a few other trips.
I know much of Colorado like the back of my hand, and want to return (permanently) as soon as possible.
Anyway, I won't bother with the "height" thing.
My email was charged with anger and frustration, so, sorry if there was too much of it concentrated at you. I should have sent the email to every one of my matches before jumping off a bridge. Thanks again for your honest reply. -E

and finally the end to the madness...my sister's final response.

your welcome!

aww he sounds sad :( poor guy!

Yeah I kind of feel bad for him too.

SO glad I don't have to date. My husband better not be, either. (just kidding ;) )

aww he sounds sad :( poor guy!Yeah, but perhaps if he turned down the psycho he wouldn't have to be so sad?

Holy. frickin'. nutjob. :blink:

HAHAHA! Poor girl.

My one and ONLY blind date was with a man much like that... except he was cute. I found the date pretty freaking hilarious considering that I'm not religious... I think he may have sworn off women after that though. :unsure:

I'm with Traci, and actually feel really bad for the guy :(. It can't be easy being out there and not finding someone. I was lucky, but I know lots of nice, kind people who haven't met their Mr. or Mrs. Right.

I do think he was a liiiiittle bit overboard on the Jesus & Christian thing, and a little over the top in the sarcasm.

SHUT UP!!! how could anyone really feel bad for him. clearly he's nuts and needs to turn down the psycho.

LOL! Well I don't doubt that in the least! I just feel a *little* bit sad for him, lol! I don't blame your sister for running away (I would be... very very quickly, lol!)

"Oh and BTW, after bible study, I'd very much like to dine on your liver with a nice chianti and some fava beans..

I agree!! Id feel sorry for him if he was alone and NICE about it. But seriously he never talked to your sister before and launches into a tirade about her not replying to him like she owes him something?? The guy clearly has some anger issues that need to be worked out and probably is the reason for him being alone. He is lucky that your sister was nice about it honestly...I dont think after the second email I would have been quite so nice!!SHUT UP!!! how could anyone really feel bad for him. clearly he's nuts and needs to turn down the psycho.

Yeah, colour me calloused, but the guy is a wack job and if he can't figure out what might be unappealing about his first email, and instead responds by turning up the psycho?... sorry, no sympathy from me.

I hope she gets better emails

Um ok... He sounds like a winner. :)

Traci Reed
03-28-2009, 09:06 PM
Sure, he's over the top and a bit crazy, I wasn't denying that but how would you feel if you were trying to meet people and were rejected over and over? Probably like that guy..he's just crazy enough to actually write it down! LOL

pewtertm
03-28-2009, 09:25 PM
Well, I can see why he's not getting any responses if he dishes out the same cheesy digi-pick-up lines to everyone!

rachaelsscraps
03-28-2009, 09:58 PM
Wow.... what a wacko! I do kinda feel bad for him, too, though... but... I dunno... I'd be scared of him! lol!

i seriously wish he didn't have to be so over the top in the first email you know. what the CRAP was that first bit about 'the rocky mountains and you'. do some chicks really dig that crap or what?? cause just that line alone would make me run for the hills.

Nikki Epperson
03-28-2009, 11:37 PM
um. wow. :blink:

03-28-2009, 11:38 PM
Ok, someone needs to tell the poor guy he's simply trying too hard! I mean, gesh! That first email gave me goosebumps, it was so creepy!
He may be a sad, lonely guy, but that doesn't excuse him from being very very creepy and very very rude.

Poor Sarah. Tell her I'll marry her, Liz. :wub:

The first email already sounds creepy. Reminds me of a guy friend I had in college who told my sister that she should get with him coz she can't get laid with anyone else. After my sister told me that, I told him I can't imagine having a nephew as hairy a he was... or as creepy. Needless to say, we aren't friends anymore (I was mean, but he's disgusting). Yick.

:blink: OMG...all I could do was shake my head and chuckle the whole time. Your poor, poor sister. I would have been turned off immediatly too...

I am sure his words were the result of many a try and trying to get something right with meeting someone.

Poor Sarah. Tell her I'll marry her, Liz. :wub:

will do. :) she'll be pleased.

Oh, but can't y'all see how intelligent he is in these emails?! I've been walking around the last four years and had NO IDEA that the guys I fauxejected on Match.com were required to turn gay after discovering I wasn't interested in them. I will have to beep my friend Matt on Yahoo! this week and tell him that he needs to break up with his GF because he's supposed to be gay now and pine after me forever. :p

Is that a continuing process? Do I turn gay if someone rejects me? I will have to make a spreadsheet when I get home from work today with the people I rejected and who rejected me to see what side of the fence I should be working these days. Hope for Jeff's sake it's the straight side... :p
