Messages from a Nut Case

Being a single gal, I utelize all sorts of outlets to meet guys.  Most of them strip your soul bear and leave you wanting to buy a half a dozen cats... this means having profiles on dating sites.  True, none of them have been remotely successful or even satisfactory, but you got to do what you've got to do.  This was a recent guy, that I lovingly refer to as the Nut Case, that contacted me on one of these sites.

From the Peanut Gallery:  Ok, I'm going to be the first to admit it, but I DO judge people who write emails like they're texting and don't know how to use spell check.  It makes me think that they're lazy and dumb.  It's a really big turn off for me.  I'm just being honest.  Put your back into it, would ya?

After reading this guy's profile, I wasn't excited about anything I saw in there - especially the grammar and spelling.  But hey, you just never know.

Hi there, 
Thanks for the message! Did you have a nice weekend? Do anything exciting? What kind of special ed kids do you work with? You're a dog lover huh? They're awesome. Have you ever thought of getting a dog? I hope you're having a nice evening.

From the peanut gallery:  I'm not a fan of someone who doesn't respond to my initial message and then wants to talk on the phone.  Something about it makes me uneasy - like that he's illiterate.  I'd rather initiate the phone call or at least express that I'd like to talk to you.

From the peanut gallery: Yeah, I have a life and I never said I would call him or that I wanted to.  I was still on the fence about calling him anyway.  Hmm... a little needy.

Sorry! I've been super busy. I'm just taking a little break from work now. This week's a little nuts for me. I have to work late the next couple of nights and then I have family coming into town on Thursday through the weekend. What days are good to call next week?

Later that night... about 9 pm

I decided to call him.  I had a little time until I had to go to my staff meeting, and I thought that was more than enough time to say hello or at least leave him a message.  He picked up and was obviously out on the town.  Admittedly, I couldn't find his name in the initial email, but I did apologize once I hesitated and I did eventually find it.   He didn't know who the hell I was either, so I was okay with this.  We laughed it off.

He couldn't talk right then but said he would text me the next day - for what I assumed was to plan a time to talk.  I said that I may have some free time the next evening to talk, but that I had a really busy week ahead of me and not much free time.  That was it.  The end.

Sorry, I'm just not comfortable with us texting to get to know each other. Its not very organic to me. I'd rather talk on the phone. As I said before, I'm more available next week.

From the peanut gallery: Wow, clearly this was the one I let get away... what a catch!  At least I didn't have to spend any time with him... or even talk to him.  They seem to be going crazier on me at a rapid rate, which honestly saves me a boat load of time!
