No Life, continued

Well it has been an interesting couple of days. After having dinner recently with my friend who claims that I have no life, I have discovered that she has attempted online dating. Not only that, but on a place where I have a profile. The porn king knows about this profile, and while not thrilled (since I have had it for while) has decided that i he only has time to talk to me 10 minutes a day (as sometimes will happen) or continues to call people on the phone when I thought I was conversing with him (has happened too many times to count), he had best lighten up about my need for interaction with people.

So to hear my friend has a profile on this site made us both raise our eyebrows. Now frankly, I have discovered that site is very female driven. There are about 100 men for every woman. So even a fat, old hag such as myself has chatted with some amazing, handsome men of all ages. Yes, I do tend to avoid men who sound like they are rappers, the illiterate and boys young enough to be my son. I am not looking for the male version of myself. I am looking for friendship and common understanding.

My friend lives a life full of rules...lots of 'em. Which is cool. When I have tried to fix her up with a guy a knew she decided that he was keeping a big secret (yeah, that I knew what was going on... and a little more.. but that is my secret) She has been sure to point this out whenever she is on the prowl.... no more men like that. Well fine. I stopped making suggestions.

What happened is that she ended up hooking up with a 30 year old virgin that was hung like Mini Me. Upon hearing that she had been on the same site, I promptly went home to look for her profile (which I never found since she totally lied to me about her user name). It was the first time I had been on the site in a couple of months, since a. it is hard to chat with kiddies all around all summer and b. the porn king has been home for the most part since I returned and c. another friend had asked me not to go chat with strangers for the time being. So when I got on I had 1,000 emails from men and couples all over the world.

Who has no life now?
