So no, this isn't dare #2 just yet, but I will admit to being intrigued by my best friend Mel's suggestion that I go on a date with someone from the "Men seeking Women" section of craigslist. Jokes about my safety, well-being and self-esteem aside, I did peruse the listings within this section and decided to pretty much close the book on this dare altogether. Here's why:
1. DOESN'T ANYONE REALIZE THAT NO ONE WANTS TO GO OUT WITH SOMEONE WHO TYPES LIKE THIS THROUGHOUT THE ENTIRE POST? IT LOOKS LIKE YOU'RE SCREAMING AT ME!
2. I'm simply not current on all the current dating lingo. What's a SPAM? Or a NSA? Am I better off not knowing?
3. There are a disturbing amount of "older executives" seeking younger no-strings partners, and one posting where a guy admits to being a "busy financier" seeking someone to "keep [him] away from work," which makes me worry more for my dad's investments than the poor girl who answers this ad.
4. Someone's subject line is "Son of SAM."
5. I just don't hate myself enough to do this. Sorry, Mel.
Anyway, I'll be happily accepting more dares, and I'll even consider [safer] variations on this one. So don't be shy kids...but DO type in lower case :).
