Yes, my friends, the insults.
Most of the time they come when I log into a site from my Blackberry and never intend to respond to messages. (The screen is small, and most sites don’t have a great mobile version, so it’s ridiculously difficult, and I rarely do it, and if the message is worth responding to, I wait until I get to my computer.)
Anyway, so usually they come from a guy who I have absolutely no interest in. If I had the time to sit and reply to EVERY message I got, interest or (the most likely scenario:) not, I’d have no free time to do anything else. So some of these guys feel the need to assert their masculinity and message me again.
These in particular came from the same guy, who sent the same message from two different accounts. (Because that’s not shady at all, right?) The older one he ended up deleting:
“So you’re better than me?”
“U never answer do u think you’re better than me u ain’t shit”
And the ever classic:
“Why r u so rude like” (This was the initial message… and then he sent me three more, at least they were a little nicer…)
I’ve gotten more, and I tend to ignore them, because any guy that feels the need to insult someone he’s trying to pursue is probably not someone worth dating. I don’t understand why they think this is an acceptable way to behave towards a person they don’t know. Most of the time, I find it humorous. (So, in a way, thanks guys for giving me some entertainment at work, when I read and don’t respond on my Blackberry.)
Moral of the story: if you WANT to be an insecure asshole on the internet, do this. If not, be a human, realize the girl is not interested, and move on. Would you act like this in a bar? Okay, don’t answer that, because I don’t want to know. I’d hope not. So don’t hide behind the internet, and put on your big boy pants.
