So As If Being Single For An Eternity Isn't Enough...

So as if being single for an eternity isn't enough, this week I got banned from a dating site.

Not just any dating site, the lowest of the low dating sites... Plenty Of Fish

I am banned

I am banned from POF

I am banned from POF- and I am not welcomed back.

I can't make this shit up.

Technology is a wondrous thing.  I can't even make a new account.  I can use a new email, new postal code... and I don't want to sound paranoid, but it's like they know your ip address or your app on your phone- because poof, the account vanishes (I know this because I tried 2 times over), don't ask me why I have tried 2 times over- perhaps I like self torturing myself with the likes of dealing with IQ's the level of a goldfish, or men who take selfies in filthy bedrooms or the endless gallery of obligatory "I caught this great big fish" pictures (tip to men, when that ugly fish is cuter than the dude holding it, don't bother)   I have come to my senses and stopped trying to beat the high security of the prestigious site of online dating - hence sealing my fate of forever single (because you know my prince charming was hiding in one of those elite profiles) :-P

So the thing with a site like this.  Someone has to report you for bad behavior (I know this because since being banned I have read their terms of service (you know that page you agree to without even reading- because who the heck reads the terms of service before anything happens and you are forced to)  And I solemnly swear that I didn't do a thing to deserve such a severe banishment!  I don't engage in lewd behavior on their site, I don't send nude photographs to other accounts (at the time I had no photographs publicly showing actually), I am not married pretending to be single and I AM NOT rude.  But I obviously rubbed someone the wrong way when I took my new approach of no longer responding to any messages to responding with a simple, "I don't think we are a match, good luck"  just nice and sweet like that... well mostly.

So who was it?  Who was the account that reported me...

The dude who lived 1 hr away from the city- so I told him it wouldn't work  "the distance, yada yada, good luck in your searches!"

The picture less dude who at my request posted a photo for me to see- he hovered somewhere around the 4-5 and I'm not going to lie, looked like he has recently been electrocuted  "thanks for posting your photo, I don't think we are a match, but good luck"

The 46 year old dude who wasn't looking for a relationship but would keep his options open.  He wrote a long heart felt message about who he was, what his hobbies were, how old his kids were... but he also openly expressed that he drank more than 3 times a week.   "Thanks for the message, but I can see by your relationship intent and the amount your drink, we wont be a match"

Or maybe...

49, not picky about age, or body type, or race or religion.  He has "no intentions of changing his home situation".  Looking for companionship that he doesn't receive in his current relationship.  SO in other words looking for someone with a cooch and a heartbeat to have sex with.  And he added at the end of his profile "must be able to host"  Seriously.  And the dude sent me a message

Dude:  Hi There.  I see we aren't looking for the same thing here.  But I was just wondering how this site is working out for you?
Normally I wouldn't have even opened up his message, but after reading his extensive profile about what he was looking for (anyone really that he could cheat on his wife with)   I had to respond!
Me:  This site is working out just fine.  If it's not working for you, maybe there is a better site that you can use to carry out your affairs, but good luck here :)
(because you know if you add good luck and a smiley face, no one should get offended :) )

I betcha it was him

I am banned from P-O-fucking-F

I guess what I realized is that no one likes rejection. Even if it's from someone you have never met, never seen a photo of and spent only a total of about 5 minutes of your life sending a couple sentences too. 

Pussies.  If I had a quarter for every time I was rejected- well I could buy that terrible site and shut it down.  Seriously

Maybe that is a blessing in disguise.  How many more damaged men and horrible coffee dates would I have subjected myself to?  I have lost count of how many fish needed a swift throwing back into that sea.  Maybe 25?  Out of that 25... 3... 3 worth seeing again!  The odds- I'd have better odds in Vegas to come home a millionaire! 

I'm just insulted really.   Insulted. 

Someone, anyone, send me a "I caught this great big fish pic" STAT! I'm going through withdrawal.  
Someone PLEASE write me a message and tell me "they are just looking for some fun at this point in their life"  
Someone please please please message me and tell me that my boobs look big or that my hair is beautiful.  :)
What's a girl got to do to get some creepy attention around here?. ;)
