Mexanese Mumbo Jumbo

As previously posted, I've recently joined the land of the online dater.

I met a few nice guys, along with some creepy guys and of course, my fair share of weird guys. Here's some of the highlights:

The Love of my Life:
I had one guy email me 3 times actually, each with a different story. His last email was comprised of a list character traits that I think were meant to show me how committed/emotionally stable/affectionate/lovable/etc he is. Except he sort of missed the mark when he said that the love of his life is his mother and that he still lived with her. Sentiment is great, just failed on the communication of it and came across as a mamma's boy with issues.

The Kinda Maybe Sorta:
I went out with this one guy who seemed nice, but the guy wouldn't stop sweating or fidgeting. Granted it was warm in the restaurant, and while I'd like to think I made him nervous (what girl doesn't like to think that?), I really think the guy just needs to grow a set.

I came to this conclusion shortly after I discovered his affinity to "..." in text message, when he asked if I ever wanted to meet up again.... When I suggested perhaps a movie (hoping this would help reduce his fidgeting) his prompt reply was "only if you want to... I don't want you to waste your time/energy...."

I get that we all have insecurities, but I'm sorry - if I've said yes to your lame ass implication of a second date, just go with it instead of playing the "only if you want to" game. Needless to say, the movie never happened.

The Booty Call:
I got various emails of this nature. Some were subtle and simply implied the idea. Some were fairly overt. But I think the one that stands out the most was one guy who asked me which body part I liked most about myself, a new variation of the "what are you wearing" approach. Sure, he could've been sincere and expected a "I really like my hair" type of response, but somehow, I just don't think that was the case.
