Hi Angelina, I would like to know more. My only concern is the distance, but the plus is, you could come and see the small horses (well actually ponies) just down from my house. I don't know what else to write. But I like you.

OK, I give up."
Online dating people please don't do this. Some people have exams and a video game addiction. Or work I guess. Decent first message as well!
Well, bullet dodged there! Three messages in a day when you don't get a response? Not so good.
In pedestrian life, I forgot my headphones/protective shield and people say more vulgar things without them I think. Some guy said super loudly to his friend while I passed by "think I can't fuck that?" whiiiiiich doesn't even make very much sense? Ugh. I miss my car

I don't understand how people can't just fucking wait for a response. It's not a goddamn chatroom.

That? That?! Wonderful, you're not even a person apparently. People are gross.

Thanks! It made me feel pretty uncomfortable and slightly afraid even though I knew he probably wouldn't do anything other than talk. Only a block away from work too! Blah.

I'm gonna go ahead and assume he was talking about a nearby bowl of mashed potatoes, so that I can retain some faith in humanity.

Look whatever a person wants to do in private with their food is none of my business.

Hey I'm sorry thats awful.
Thanks, I appreciate it! I've been thinking of you during all this Brexit insanity
What I’m doing with my life
Fixing people's cellphones. And getting paid pretty well to do it.
What do you actually do? Can you pad it out a bit?
I spend a lot of time thinking about
What Petyr Baelish is really up to.
What else? do you ever think about where you want to be in X years etc? Your hobbies?
You should message me if
...any of the following are true.
I'd make this shorter and more narrative, but thats just my style.

@WACriminal I like it! Your what I spend time thinking about made me giggle out loud. My only thing, and it's a personal thing, is there are no straight on pictures of your face completely uncovered. I'm old and cynical and been dating too long so I like a proper view of someone's face before I meet up with them. I like your main pic though! I don't think there's anything you need to change, you sound fun.
@WACriminal I also think it looks pretty great, but like Liiya I'd like to see the first two sections fleshed out a little. There's a lot of humor in your profile, which is great, but I think there could be a little more actual, truthful detail, too.
Oh my gosh the woman I went out with last night was real neat and I hope she thought I was neat. We're going to go out again this week, either tomorrow or Thursday. It was a ton of fun just talking with her, and she seems so perceptive and driven.
I guess the fact that she was like "Yeah I can go out like any time after work!" is a sign that she thinks I'm neat.
I do think I'm going to have a decent time out tonight with another person but I think probably unless we super-click this time I am going to break it off. Last year I spent a long time not being sure who I wanted to be with out of the people I was seeing and it was mostly nerve-wracking rather than fun. I don't want to drag things out this time!
So, this may just be me, but I wait to tell people my name until after I get a response. I have a fairly unique first name that would allow people to easily google me based on a few other things that were in my profile. In my online dating experience, almost no one had their name in their profile.
Thats fair enough! I personally like it because its easier to say "Hi John" to start out with, and also as a woman on the flip side you can do a cheeky google and check he's not a rapist .
I usually do a "Hi, my name's X. You can text me at Y" after I've asked a person out, but I have info that makes my like public-presence googleable if you want. Like "I work on [thing where I write and my name is my byline]".

I don't keep my name in my profile precisely so I can use it to introduce myself
Like, if someone else has a name in their profile, I'll likely give them mine right away
But oftentimes they do not, and it gives me the great opportunity (generally right around date setup) to be like, "By the way, my name's Greg" and create that opening for an introduction
Also I feel kind of uncomfortable using my real name on the Internet. Probably because I grew up in the age of message boards and IM where screen names were the norm. On some weird level it feels more normal to talk to strangers using a nonsensical nickname.

which is true, want to meet that lady

I mean, that ship sailed for me on here ages ago, but still...
