Still a freak magnet

I guess since I'm home more and I leave my computer on all day, I am getting more chat invitations. And perhaps it's really just for entertaining purposes but I like calling guys on their lack of honesty. I can generally tell within the first few minutes of conversation if they guy is honest or if something is off in them. Let me give you a few examples:

If a guy asks for my a,s,l (age, sex, location) in the first few lines, that tells me that he hasn't taken the time to read my profile and generally isn't really interested in me.

When they ask about photos immediately (although there's a link on my profile page) and then goes on and on about them... asking for more, telling me how good I look, etc.

When they tell me they are from xxx place in the United States and I can tell that English isn't their first language.

When they are vague about their job... they are in "business" or work for a "bank" etc.

When their verbal skills don't match their profession. When they are supposedly in a professional job and they write very poorly.

When they ask if I have a cam. I really don't see the point in online cam's because I find that generally men that use them are only interested in one thing.

One of my favorites is the poetical men that think sappy love poem lines will make me melt like butter.

These are just a few indicators. Sometimes it's a game to catch them with an inconsistency. Many times they back out when they figure out that I'm not a fool.

I'll leave you with a sample conversation:

• drbriggstimmy (6/3/2006 10:03:02 AM): I was just telling you that your profession means much to my life
• annabel_lee_tx (6/3/2006 10:03:09 AM): because you can't possibly be involved in editing and documentation when you can barely write properly in this conversation
• drbriggstimmy (6/3/2006 10:03:11 AM): no teacher no banker
• drbriggstimmy (6/3/2006 10:03:18 AM): that was what I meant
• drbriggstimmy (6/3/2006 10:03:41 AM): oh I see
• drbriggstimmy (6/3/2006 10:03:58 AM): can you point out my errors ?
• annabel_lee_tx (6/3/2006 10:05:10 AM): Well, since I'm an English major.. yes... but let's not go there.
• annabel_lee_tx (6/3/2006 10:05:31 AM): are you currently in South Carolina? If so what part?

• drbriggstimmy (6/3/2006 10:07:57 AM): BRB, phone call.

And all of a sudden he had to go. Imagine that. Perhaps I'm a bit cynical, but do you really blame me?
