Affairs Of The Heart

I always state on any of the online dating sites, and on my blog, that I am willing to talk about affairs of state, and affairs of the heart. Well, here goes.

On Sunday of March 9th, I received a yahoo quickie " your profile made me smile" alert. Now, normally, I click on just to see who sent me a message.
Most of the time, in fact 100% of the time I click delete, because it always seems like the usual yadda, yadda( I miss Jerry's Seinfeld's TV shows), and I feel a yawn begin as a response.
But Sunday was different. I read this fella's profile and felt as if a long ago love had come back into my life. His words were not like others I have read: Love to eat out, love to cuddle, love golf, boring etc., etc.,.

No, here's what he wrote:

just imagine the spark you have ZINGed in me!...are you trying to find that special someone who makes you smile when you think of him?... a good relationship is not so elusive! you do really have a soul mate!... you should still believe...it starts with a spark that in time blossoms into a deep connection between two people...when we meet we will know that we have found that special someone...life is a wonderful adventure....let us walk the road 2gether!...what am we looking for?...we will see it in each others eyes and in that certain special smile... we will both exude warmth, love, caring, kindness and strength. our character is reflected in how we treat each other and others and how we live our lives... our intellects will glow...we will be confident, honest,communicative and most importantly, happy with ourselves... a gentle touch and a good sense of humor will be there... one of our real turn ons will be getting to know each other and feeling that we have made a connection with each another...we will have sparked a ZING in each other...we will remember past times having had that wonderful feeling of connecting with one very special person...i enjoy reading e.e.cummings...he has a special trait...but sometimes the opposite trait yeilds more fruitful results...'Because Of Better Great Results In Meeting My Mate AT YAHOO personals'...i hope to hear from you soon...you will know who exactly this personal is aimed towards!


SIGH--I was hooked, like I haven't felt zinged, or hooked in ages. Now, I realize this fella had not paid for a subscription to Yahoo.
I had not either. So, I sent him back the same free quickie reply" Your profile stood out above the others"
And I waited till Monday, and finally couldn't wait any longer. I joined paying the damn $29.90 for a month's service. I figured , kid why are we being frugal at this stage in the game?
I sent him a message containing some ee.cumming's poetry, along with my email address. And I waited. Nothing.

Then I logged in to my etsy account/shop, and noticed a convo. I clicked on it, only to find it was from the fella on yahoo personal who had done a search and found me on etsy.com.
He wrote me a convo with his email address. He let me know in one of his etsy convo's that he did NOT wish to communicate via etsy convo's.
OK, I can understand, if you're going to write steaming hot stuff, who wants etsy to know?
So, I emailed him using the email address he'd left in the etsy convo.
I asked him some key questions like: Why do you leave barn doors open in the spring and summer? He wrote back, " to give you 3 red roses." How do you make that loud bleep out sound-eeerrskiech--meaning wrong answer!!
OK, maybe this fella really doesn't want me to know who he really is, right?
So, I ask him how did you find me on etsy, if you didn't know anything except my yahoo 'cookiethief ' name?

He didn't answer back. In fact when he stated, after I had written " if and when we meet..." He wrote, " we will'--I asked him how he could be so sure of himself?
He never answered back.
He had enclosed his phone number in one of the etsy convo's, so today I tried calling--got busy signals the 1st 2 times.
The 3rd time I called the phone rang and rang--no one picked up, nor was there an answering machine to record a message.

So we still have a mystery here. But he sure wrote a great profile, didn't he?

Wow! That is certainly some profile. I would be hooked too. I used online dating until they matched me with my exhusband (the match was after we divorced). We are great friends now and laugh long and loud about it.

Thank you, once again, for visiting my blog and leaving me such a nice comment about my photos-- brought a big smile to my face. You're so sweet.

Good Luck with the "Zinger," should you decide to go with that. :) Otherwise, good luck anyway... with everything!
