I just thought of it to see if it would suddenly make me more popular but if the women are passing me over for either of those reasons, I wouldn't want them anyway. I'm very discerning about that sort of thing.
I've always had problems picking people up at this particular website anyway.
After I've paid my monthly blood donations (rent and other bills), I'll expand my search outward a bit and see how things go.
I need some more updated pictures and whatnot anyway.
I've always felt that finding women is generally more about mass marketing and my scope has been rather limited. It just irks me because while the rejection doesn't really bother me, it's that I can see all these women talking to all these people (through adding "friends" and talking about how they can't find anyone on the forums and things of that nature) but as soon as I send them a message, I either get ignored or deleted without a second thought and I have no idea why this is happening.
I get that women tend to get flooded with messages more than men so they can afford to be choosier, but they seem to reject me without even a discriminating thought in my direction. Then again, I'm hardly in a position to judge why they do so.
It's frustrating as hell.
It's like being at a party and as much as you try to talk to anyone or yell or scream, only some of them glance at you and not one of them will talk to you - even the ones that complain all the time that they have no one to talk to.
It's like being in middle school.
If today you can take a thing like evolution and make it a crime to teach in the public schools, tomorrow you can make it a crime to teach it in the private schools and next year you can make it a crime to teach it to the hustings or in the church. At the next session you may ban books and the newspapers...
Ignorance and fanaticism are ever busy and need feeding. Always feeding and gloating for more. Today it is the public school teachers; tomorrow the private. The next day the preachers and the lecturers, the magazines, the books, the newspapers. After a while, Your Honor, it is the setting of man against man and creed against creed until with flying banners and beating drums we are marching backward to the glorious ages of the sixteenth centry when bigots lighted fagots to burn the men who dared to bring any intelligence and enlightenment and culture to the human mind. ~Clarence Darrow, at the Scopes Monkey Trial, 1925
Politics is supposed to be the second-oldest profession. I have come to realize that it bears a very close resemblance to the first. ~Ronald Reagan
