UPDATE on *blind date* - 3 Fat Chicks on a Diet Weight Loss Community

LaurieM35 · 07-25-2005, 09:21 AM

Lets just say this............it didnt' happen!

Ok so he started emailing me on Saturday night, kinda to do a *let's get to know each other some* before we met, well this is some parts of what his emails said:

1st email:

Hello, Salutations,
This is a test message from Kevin . If this made it through then
Shannon got the email address correct.
If not please disregard this email.
This is not spam.

Thanks,

After I got that email, I responded and let him know she got it right, then I sent a 2nd email just kinda chit chatting and asking him a few questions and saying some stuff about me...........kinda like getting the ball rolling kinda thing. His responses to me consisted of all my questions copies and pasted and a brief answer. Nothing more, nothing to carry on the conversation. He was talking in kind of a *King Arthur * tone, if you know what I mean.......... like "I shall this.............I thankenth this............LOTS of words ending with that *th*................

He decribed his characteristics as being very unique and he didn't have many positive things to say about himself. He describes himself as a 34 year old skinned drudge hack male. Now what the heck is THAT? He tells me he lives a very mundane life, he has friendships via telephone, Hmmmm ok

I basically had to sent emails to him and force him to talk to me and I am NOT going to force anyone to talk to me. A conversation has to be a two way or it won't work. He ended his emails like: I thankith thee........... or ...Cheerio to thee.............or I will send new email now..............

He just didnt' come across as a person I wanted to meet or get to know. Maybe that is bad of me but I just couldn't do it!

Girl...if he couldn't make conversation over email than I think you are right. I hate that it didn't work for ya..but you are right...you don't want to have to make anyone have conversation with you. That would drive me crazy. At least you got to email with him first and find out what he is like..oh and as for "He describes himself as a 34 year old skinned drudge hack male." that one you got me on...not a clue what that means!! What a loss for him!!

Laurie - I am so glad it didn't happen (for your sake)!!! What in the world is a skin drudged hack male (sounds like a disease)

Oooohh - I don't know why but I get the creeps just reading what he wrote. I am so glad you didn't meet him - he sounds looney toons

!!!

ewww...sounds like he might play a lot of video games. i did a quick research and there is this game that has all kind of drudges as characters. might explain the old english as well if it's a 16th century type game. i'd politely let him down and quickly add him to your blocked list..

LaurieM35 · 07-25-2005, 10:50 AM

OMG really Shannon, that might REALLY be his problem then! LOL! he is a computer geek!?!?! My son Steven said he sounds like one of those geeks that sit into front of computer games or video games trying and trying to hack into them and break the codes and stuff!!! OMG, I can see now this guy being in the newspaper sometime in the future trying to hack into the goverment computer systems!!! LOL!

Julianna150 · 07-25-2005, 10:50 AM

Is he a leftover from Shakespearean England? hmmmmmmm

He is not worth it honey! If he can't talk to You, then he is hideing something.

Be happy that you didn't found out what he ment by skinned drudge hack male is. It sound's really weird.

Yes, good call! Sounds like a weirdo --- ALWAYS trust your instincts!!!

LaurieM35 · 07-25-2005, 04:14 PM

NOW, get this! I got another email from him while I was gone today. ITs like 110% turn around and he was talking normal. Wonder what's up with that!

ABWorldly · 07-25-2005, 06:41 PM

Hmmmm...maybe he realized he was being weird! Did you cancel the date or did you never make one? If you cancelled it then he is probably wondering why, etc...

LaurieM35 · 07-25-2005, 06:49 PM

I was suppose to go over to my brothers and gf's house for a cook out where he was to come to also, for us to meet. After talking to him via email on Saturday I just called Shannon (brothers GF who set us up) and told her that I didnt' think we were a match and that our personalities just crashed and I just didnt' think I should waste time and meet him. So from what I gathered from his email, Shannon then turned around and called him and told him that I felt like he didn't want to meet me and that I wasn't going to be able to make it to the cookout, which wasn't at all why I ddint' want to meet him. So he emailed me today saying, that I must have missunderstood his email that he REALLY did want to meet me and maybe we could do it next Sunday or something. I am not going to respond to his email, there is no need for me too. Hopefully he will get the picture.

ABWorldly · 07-25-2005, 06:58 PM

Maybe you can just send a brief email saying that you can't make it and that you have a lot going on now and just won't be able to go out with him. Then if he keeps emailing you can ignore it. I would be as obvious as possible. Otherwise he probably will keep bugging you for a while!!!

LaurieM35 · 07-25-2005, 07:04 PM

I am afraid if I respond at all, he will not go away so easiliy, so I am going to keep low with him and not respond at all

beck43 · 07-25-2005, 10:19 PM

Hey, Laurie, I found out what a "skin drudged hack male" is!!!

LOSER!!!! LOL

BE AFRAID, BE VERY AFRAID!!! STAY CLEAR OF HIM!!! YOU ARE BETTER OFF NOT KNOWING THIS WHATEVER HE CALLS HIMSELF!!!
