Real Life Emails from Online dating...Good, Bad, Hillarious

These are some of my favorite first messages while online dating. They are not meant to discourage, only entertain! I have deleted the screen names because most of these men are probably still online dating on several sites. I have not edited the words, spelling or grammar so some are a little harder to read. Enjoy xo SG

RE: Hey sweetie!

“Hi Sweetie,

He is a tall, dark, handsome and A DOCTOR! he used to date a colombian actress but is single now.

You owe me a hunk for this ;)

Ciao,

“So decided to give this a try since can get really busy with work, gym, laundry :0) (my friend did PR for Jersey Shore and I picked that up!). So I set up my little profile a few days ago and people responded but didn't pay so much attention to that. Liked your pictures and what you wrote though :) Now I think my pics suck! And mostly because my favorite pictures have other people in them and didnt want to put that all out there!! My main one realized have guiness pajama bottoms on! Anyway, thanks ;) Little something about me, used to be an attorney but began hating it. Plus everyone hates lawyers. Moved over to financial field at one of the big investment houses right BEFORE the crash. Now everyone hates us again! But I promise I really am a nice guy!! Well, hope this finds you well and hear back from you if you like my (few) pictures and profile!”

“Seeking Someone Positive

Obviously your profile caught my eye and I wanted to see if there was a connection. It appears that we have a lot in common and I believe I fit your profile. Contact me when you get a chance as I would like to see if there is a chance that we can progress things forward :) “

“'I’m sure youve heard every cliche and if it works for the average girl, then Im pretty sure it wouldnt be much of an icebreaker for you.... So let me just introduce myself. So here goes.... My name is Rodrigo. Why am I writing you? Because like myself we might be trying to meet people out of our normal circle. There's a little bit of a romantic notion in that thought. I dont know if we will ever meet but Im sure it would be fun if we do. I love Trader Joes and love to cook but Im not the best. So tips on fun restaurants will be well appreciated. :^) I'm in LA weekends exploring. I like tennis although I may not be the best and know better to never to try to help anyone with their game. Best to just have fun. If your asking then the answer is, Yes I like to Travel... I appreciate all cultures and love the differences. Being local to Redondo is super however I like to find places that maybe strange or shiny, an adventure of sorts. I am looking for a person that can talk intelligently enough to know that kindess is the highest and most formal education that anyone can have. Best Regards, Rodrigo xxx-xxx-xxxxx”

“Your profile says you like to play at the beach. Do you play volleyball down in Manhattan Beach? That's not far from where I play in Hermosa. Well, I liked what you had to say in your profile and I definitely understand having to keep up with work and a busy social schedule. My calendar is pretty packed these days. I've signed up for a few classes on weekday evenings, to try some new things. Anyway, I hope the week's going well for you. Just a couple of days till the weekend:)

Talk to you soon,

P

P.S. I'm a pretty good Texas Hold'Em player. Do you play?”
