I tried an experiment for two months about online dating. And by experiment of course I mean I was bored and I found a free dating app on my iPod. So I created my profile and got a lot of messages, of course all ugly old guys. So I made another profile with all the exact same information but changed my picture, not a lot, not a different person, just me with red hair. I got SO MANY emails from guys, cute. young guys I may add. The part of Arizona I live in is small so some of the guys I went to high school with, which was a laugh but anyway I was shocked at how hair color changed the entire thing. They like how awesome my personality was, of course, but then I really looked into it because a lot of guys were pointing it out. I looked over my chat history with each person and none of them really had gotten to know me yet it was all small talk....Then I realized it was a foul proof plan for guys to compliment a girl, I mean the whole "your beautiful" "you look like an angel" stuff has gotten old and what girl is going to deny they have a great personality? That's a great trait, and it makes it seem like they like you for you not because you put on a water bra. Which I have never done, but it is on my bucket list. I found of course deleted the account about a week ago since some guys were getting really attached and wanted to meet and I didn't want it to become like the movie "Catfish".
The last thing I want to mention is the lesson I learned from the book "He's Just Not That Into You." I decided to give the book a chance since I didn't care for the movie. It really helped me with my advice giving skills. By the way I am this friend:
But I am single by choice, not be default. ( I have really high standards) Anyway whenever my friends come to me for advice now I look back at this book, the moral of the book is if you have a question mark over if a guy likes you or not just go with he doesn't. To me its a win win, either he doesn't and you braced yourself for it or he does like you and it made your day. But just remember the rule of thumb if a guy likes you, he will let you know, don't worry he might be shy, he might just not like you, either way if he cares about you enough he will find a way to create the fairy tale.
If you every need help, advice, or an opinion just asked. I would be more then happy to answer it for you. Not because I think I am the master at relationships, or have enough experience to solve every love problem ever its just, I like helping people out with this kind of stuff, and maybe I can't help you, but someone else might read your comment and help out. I would like to view this blog as a support group in a way. So don't be shy. :)
