Following the remarks regarding weight and lying several nights ago, some of you became self-conscious; I know, because I was asked. (Ok, I know why, but still…) You ladies are usually NOT the issue! I smile at each of you when I view your pictures and all the effort invested in your appearance on men’s behalf. Thank you!
I have been here only a week. By noon, today, I received 130 messages. (1 day) Ladies, even Marilynn Monroe could get lost in this pile. (She is not my type.) Do not go looking in the mirror thinking something is wrong with you. The simple logistics of reading the emails alone are staggering to us. Comments by rude men who think they are shopping a buffet should be considered a benefit. They are gifting you with valuable information to help decide this is certainly not for you. (That doesn’t mean you can’t have some fun with him by giving him a poke or two!)
I laughed at your responses to the boy wanting to know why European girls think American men are so much more exciting. I was embarrassed to be an American and wanted to crawl under my chair! Your answers were great. Clearly the boy watches too much TV, but so do many men. A man’s weaknesses and character flaws does not improve by something changed in you. When you begin to feel you’re missing something in life, you might be. And it could be that sloppy, rude, overweight, self-enamored troll who might have been sitting on your couch, spilling his beer and wiping his nose on your curtains! Thank God you don’t have to clean up that mess!
You girls have an advantage over most women in the US. Think why the honest men came here and stopped looking at home. You have character, depth, trust, optimism and an innocent faith (I imagine Tatyana and Olga want to force their fingers down their throats right now. ugh!) that we men cherish; that which has been lost here to social deterioration. YOU are the girls good men truly want.
Never think less of yourselves. My heart was saddened by Kris’ long frantic letter the other night, who believed she had found the love of her life; the love who at first meeting declared she was too fat and needed to lose weight before he would accept her. I was stunned! I can’t even imagine her shock. (Women in the US resolve these issues using a baseball bat.) I looked at her profile and she was gorgeous, precious, perfect; she could have been my daughter and I wished I could comfort her. You ladies are a wonderful support for each other and I admire you. None of you deserve a selfish, one-sided mate.
I also read the remarks regarding appropriate attire, eating while talking on Skype, or watching TV in an underwear while talking on live cam with a prospective life-partner 10,000 miles away. Got it! None of you should tolerate any of this. And lighten up! This is not a job interview. Have fun, be yourselves, but demand respect! If my search for a partner ends here, I hope to keep many friends and cherish memories. And if I didn’t respond quickly to an email, remember I might not yet have found it. Thanks! (And I do not expect posts regarding my living in a virtual world.)
