Analysis: Oh, he works and drives? How wonderful, except for the fact that he lives in California and I live in New Jersey. That’s quite a long drive. The rest of the cliche garbage doesn’t do it for me either.

  1. Well Mo, I don’t think the guy you are looking for exists. And if he does, there will be a million other women gunning for him. Sooner or later you’re going to have to settle for one of us slugs. :)

    In general, boring = reliable/faithful; exciting = fun-but-easily-distracted-and-temporary. You’re young – do exciting for now, but when you’re tired of all that, go for as dull as you can get. :)

  2. George Parkanyi – I long ago realized that Prince MoMo doesn’t exist. Unfortunately, I’m even having trouble finding Prince Tolerable.

  3. Mo, there are LOTS of those – just don’t try too hard; they’ll fall in your lap … :)

  4. There are lots of us that are barely tolerable, and we’ll piss you off a lot with things like toilet-seats and so on, but it won’t be tragi-comic. :)

  5. And don’t do on-line dating – you’re a good-looking woman, just talk to the men around you, and help the ones up that walk into lamp-posts. :)

  6. Frankly, I’d much rather be alone than with someone who highly irritates me.

  7. OK, be independent and lonely … :) Ah, we’re all flawed and somewhat irritating – don’t worry about it too much; turn it around and have fun with it. Lemons into lemonade and all that. Gotta run – gig rehearsal. Cheers.

  8. Hope you find Prince Tolerable.

    I’m not single so I don’t have any experience with online dating, but if I were, wouldn’t the following work?

    Hi, I’m Ed. I noticed your profile and I’d like to meet you. If you’re interested, please text me at: … Respectfully, Ed.

    Have things changed that much since I was single (about a 100 years ago).

  10. Ed BoozeClub – It depends. A simple message like that might work if the female specimen isn’t inundated with messages and/or your profile/pictures were awesome. I’m more prone to respond to funny or witty messages.
