Okay, #11 is a giant eww. My favorite horrible profile requirement are the 40+ guys who are only looking for a woman between 18 and 24. Oh, and “no fatties.” Live the dream, gramps. (And as an older lady, I can say “gramps” with impunity.)

Amelia! You forgot the sex perverts! I spent many a month on OKC, and you being such an attractive young lady, I am sure you are getting more than your fair share of “hey baby ur HOT!1! love 2 get to no u better. wink” messages, from guys whose profiles say under Six Thing You Couldn’t Live Without, “Ummm lol beer, sex, porn, video games, boobs, and sex lol”

One time I had a 79 year old man tell me he wanted a threesome with him and his wife. FYI, I was 18 at the time. OH, and I had a another guy tell me at MOST I was 120 pounds. Guys, I’m 6’1”. I’m flattered when people call me thin, but please stay away from calling me emaciated. I could go on and on. However, all wasn’t for naught, since I did meet my current boyfriend on there, and he’s handsome and charming and intelligent and funny and tall and omg so awesome and I love him. We’re going long and going strong. Thank you, interblags! Forge on, Amelia!

Good times on the OKC. Good times.

#12, the guy who has the tagline: Honest, Driven, and Old-Fashioned…
And he turns out to be a registered sex offender with 3 counts of 2nd degree rape. AWESOME! What is he? HONESTly DRIVEN to rape in an OLD-FASHIONED way? I’m confused…

@Amelia: WTF. Going in I was all like “This is gonna be great, I’m not going to fit one of these stereotypes” then # f*cking 7. WTF!

@Amelia

#2 always shows up in my matches. Longer blonde hair, brooding face? Guys like that parade around their disposable incomes and then wonder why they always seem to date golddiggers.

I don’t have with a virgin… I have a problem that with a guy who says “tough poop” that’s unforgivable.

I’m so, so glad I haven’t had to venture into online dating yet.

Yikes! Those profiles for real? A split vote of Ughhh and Haha. Mister Lister and Poop Dudie trump.

Alas, I am succumbing to the online arena. *((sigh))* A lot has changed in the five years when I was dating then. I think I’m going to have friends do the screening and sorting, this is too funny and weird!

Check this SH*T out!!!!
I got this one today… The headline is: White trash and Smokers need not apply

WARNING: Please don’t message me telling me that I am hot, good-looking, or that I have beautiful eyes. I don’t need those types of messages and find that the people that send them are incredibly superficial.

I’m new to Oklahoma and so far I like it here. I have noticed that the women in Oklahoma get pregnant/married/divorced at a very young age which is kinda freaking me out on here. LOL! Must be a Baptist and/or a “White Trash” thing! haha!

Don’t know what to say really other than I am pretty normal guy, well educated (got all of my degrees at Purdue…so yes, I am a BOILERMAKER! YEA!!!), good job, family oriented, and pretty much into a lot of different things.


Also, I only date girls who I believe or ‘compatible’ with me. Please don’t contact me if you are covered with tattoos, you smoke, or if you are on the heavy side. I think it’s PATHETIC that women over the age of 30 are doing stupid things like getting tattoos and trying to ‘look young’ and acting like a 20 year old by going clubing all the time. YOUR TIME HAS PASSED! ACT YOUR AGE AND GROW UP! Sorry to sound kinda mean, but I don’t want to waste your time or mine.

I work a pretty standard 9-5 job as an engineer in the OK oil industry. My profession is pretty fun because I get to travel out of the country a lot on special projects and I have gotten to meet some cool people like T. Boone Pickens and Saudi royalty (though I wasn’t impressed with the Saudi royals! HAHA!)


What a gem! smile
