So some dude wrote me this yesterday:
My name is Jose [last name], I am single, and had never married, I did got engaged once (it was my fault that didn’t work, I behaved like a jerk…), I don’t have children (and I pray to God for the opportunity), I am muttering, caring, and can be very gently, and I have a slight wild side as well… but that is reserved for later if you pick me, and we made it that far

I am smart (sometimes I brag about it, but there are many men far smarter than me out there, and I can be annoying), I behave in silly ways sometimes, ok most of the time… like when I go around silly things like offering flowers, enjoyed poetry and making a fool of myself, even in public. I am a hopeless romantic… and I am a meek sometimes, I do wear my pride in my sleeve, I am sensitive to bad criticism from those I love the most.
I am most definitely not a Paul Hogan type of man, I learn my lesson after I got injured lifting and throwing Camp Victory’s generator over the top of a flat bed truck… yeah I know not very smart, I think that if God wanted me to be lifting things I would had been born with hydraulic jacks inside my legs and arms hehehe

I can drink alcohol, but I am not attracted to it, nor I like cigarretes, or tabacco products. I drink coffee, love donuts and chocolate cake even if I must hit the gym for six hours after eating it… I do like to keep myself fit, and toned, but I have a life… in the romantic arena I am a very physical guy, and I like showing affect no matter who is looking! I know scaring… I will even dance in public with no music for you hehehe

When it comes to chose the person with whom I may share the rest of my life and beyond, I believe there is no topic off the table, and only communication, and deep understanding of each other at every level: humor, intellectual, sexual, sensual, spiritual, emotional, and even religious ideology are important and must be explore, and share at the open in conversation… only when we truly understand someone love will set roots, and the relationship will move from simple infatuation from the initial lust, to grow into the life lasting pure love.
Love is all I need, and Love is what I have to offer, I don’t just hook up to get in your pants, I rather get to know you, by talking over the phone, email, or chat. share songs or talking about music and all the possible topics, going out and having a meal over casual conversation, and progress from there to holding hands if it feel appropriated etc… which is dating really, but to me dating never truly ends, and should continue into marriage, and beyond.
I am a bit in the shy side when I first meet anyone, but once I know more about you, you better keep the break at arms reach hehehe not much witty personality than that, that is my weakest point, but could become my strongest side, under the right circumstances

Oh… ough I wrote quite a bit, and don’t want to scare you away with a long message. if you find in your heart to reply and make of this a conversation, this is a great starting point, that will lead us to either Love, friendship, or maybe just a nice conversation that you may remember as “a chat with some crazy guy somewhere online” hey I got the better selection of genes, I am immune to the flu hehehe

Hmmm hasta pronto munequita… o eso espero.
Jose
I didn’t write back, and today I got this:
I am aware the initial sighting of me doesn’t exactly inspire the desire to initiate conversation, but there is much much more to me than what is in display.
Oh excuse my rude behavior! How are you? forgive me, if my introduction is quite dry, I have no excuse, I am not good at introductions. I am a well educated man, with a sometimes darky sense of humor, I am not the strongest, nor the smartest man in this planet, but I am without a doubt the man that need the less to enjoy life, and find the hidden beauty on nature. I am an Electrical Engineer, basically a short sale mix of a physicist, and a mathematician, with an alter ego that is way bigger than myself, and only a few get to meet. I know without a doubt that God exist, and this special knowledge give me the edge. when I open my eyes every morning, and became aware once more of the miracle of life. It doesn’t matter where every particle came from, or where is going the next, in the great scheme of things, matter became only relevant when there is a purpose to its existence… and so we are here.I am single (not for lack of trying as much as lack of oportunities hehehe), I had never been married, I did got engaged once (it was my fault that didn’t work, I behaved like a jerk…but I had learned ever since), I don’t have children (but I pray to God for the opportunity), I am nurturing caring, and can be gentle (just don’t tell my Army guys that).
I would like very much to get to know you, if that pleased you, we could start with friendship, and allowing room to grow, God may bless us with much much more than we hope for. There is no right or wrong answer, I am here to knock at your gates, and upon answering my call, only you can decide if I may come in, or if I should move on to the next temple…
Jose
if you wish alternative contact information is available
email ” [email address] ” or if you feel brave enough to trust in this stranger my cell number [phone number]
Yeah…not so much.
what was up with the constant “hehehe”?? AND…that I was going to do a cut/paste what I thought was a horrible sentence…but then realized they all were. Yikes!
Yeah, and it turns out a friend of mine got the same cut-and-paste email, too! (Not N
)
what did this guy use a translator? The format of his words reminds me of the Prince of Nigeria letters….
my favorite line: “I am muttering, caring, and can be very gently…”
I got several of these from the female side back in my online dating days (usually from women halfway across the planet), but none of them were quite this… long.
Of course my wife’s English in the first email she ever sent me was far from perfect either, but luckily in her case she had an extremely cute photo to go with it, which managed to make me overlook any minor grammatical shortcomings. Anyway, she’s fluent in four languages and I am fluent in exactly one, so it’s hard to judge too harshly.
I just re-read this, and…. Paul Hogan? As in “Crocodile” Dundee???? What decade/universe is this guy living in?
That might be my new favorite sentence.
Yeah, that part was pretty exciting. So hard to choose!
I decided at the beginning of his letter to ignore all misspellings, grammatical problems, and “second language” type problems. I’m sure my Spanish is worse than his English, and at least we’re trying, right?
t so
So I read only for context. And he lost me at the first sentence, praying for the opportunity to impregnate you.
In response to his declaration “There is no wrong answer”, I’d like to submit “Hello Jose, I’m an atheist” as a test.
Yeah, I can’t say the whole impregnation pickup route really appeals to me.
And my profile is pretty clear about the fact that I’m agnostic, so obviously he’s carpet-bombing here.
