That Glass is Starting to Look a Little Empty...

Although I’m a glass half full kind of person with a positive outlook on life, I’m starting to be ever so concerned at the lack of response to my messages. With forty messages now sent and only two replies (telling me to bog off) a few doubts are now starting to creep into my mind. Still, on the plus side, at least two women were polite enough to reply.

I’m at a loss as to what I’m doing wrong. I’m being honest and genuine and I like to think I’m a nice guy too. But perhaps this is what’s wrong and, for all their talk, women like Simone, Caroline and Karen don’t actually like nice men who are happy to hold doors open and pass the occasional complement (not that I’ve said this in my messages). Sure, I’ll admit to being no Brad Pitt, but I’m no Shrek either, so I just wonder whether there’s actually any room for nice people in this hurried and cruel world.

I think I’m going to have to readdress things and consider giving this Internet Dating lark a rest for a while. It’s starting to get too depressing and, along with other too many other burdens, it’s beginning to chip away at my happy persona and I’m not sure how much hammering I can take before it starts to hurt.

I’ve a few days left on this month’s subscription so I’ll see what this week brings, but I think my blog is quite possibly heading for a quiet patch. Here’s hoping it doesn’t.
