Online Dating - Why It Sucks.

Ali and I are still a part of this one paid site for online dating. We have had ZERO good results with it. As a matter of fact she got this gem of a opener from a gentleman.... we shall dissect it as we go, just so much to comment about. My comments will be between {}.

"Hi, how are you doing? Good I hope. I am fine. I had some time now, so I decided to email you this letter.
I wanted to let you know I had read your profile and I believe you and I got a lot of the same interest{we shall see}, I know we live some miles apart. But I will still like to email you and let see what may happen?, only if you want to. My time here on match is up on 2-25-10, and I will be moving on to some other site to see if I can fine {fine/find whatever} the woman for me, if you’re not the one. So, I don’t know if you would like to email each other to get to know each other better and give it a try. I am new to this on line dating thing, I will like to tell you some more things about myself, and if you like them, write me back, But remember this “NO one can match 100%. “ {and new to writing and thanks for reminding me that there are no perfect people out there....because with this start - I thought it was you}
I am looking forward to meet you,{ease up there boy who said I would meet you? I can barely get through this email} and make new friend and maybe something more later on. If that is ok with you? I don’t know what to say, so I am going to open myself up here, and I hope you like it.
Ok about myself:
I don’t know what to say, but I wanted you to know some more stuff that I feel is good about me, and what friends and family tell me all the time.
I am someone with high self-confidence, {lacking in grammar and spelling skills}I feel quite comfortable interacting with other people. I find the company of others very stimulating and enjoy meeting new people. I am relaxed in groups, and make people around me comfortable.
I am someone who is oriented with familial matters; I value the company of family. I am someone high in openness; I have a strong appreciation for beauty, both in art and nature. And I am also very easily absorbed in music and art, as well as natural phenomena. Another aspect of my openness is my emotional insight; that is, my probably to have good access to and awareness of my own emotions.
I appear to “take things as they come” and enjoy having a good time. I believe it’s me that allows people to feel comfortable interacting with others without feeling insecure and vulnerable. (But I am a funny guy :) {I am fat}
I like fishing, boating, driving, walking, camping, movies, going to the clubs (sometimes just to have some fun) {so why do you go to the movies and fish?}, I am looking for a woman, who has the heart of gold, I don’t want someone who into playing games, I want a woman, who knows how to have fun, and is funny, understanding, caring, lovable, and someone who knows what she wants out of life, one who is not (to) shy, and lets me in to know about her, I want to know what’s on the inside.
Well if you think this may be you? So then why not try it, you never know for sure? Take a good look at my profile, Like I said above, I don’t play any games, when it comes to the heart or someone feelings.
Think about it? What’s a couple of more miles, who knows, we could be made for each other?
Well I think that is good for now, if you email me back and want to know more about me, and I believe you can get a picture of what kind of man I am, if you want to email each other here on this site that’s cool, or you can email me at (thekissrule/AT/gmail/Dot/com){YEP HE SPELLED IT OUT!!!} I hope to hear from you soon.{Do not count on it buddy}
In till {what?? maybe he learned to spell with phonics} then, take care of yourself.
