men have issues 

i always wondered why there is always the prevailing stereotype of the hysterical woman. freud propagated that, and it just keeps going and going. i find it "hysterical" when i read men's preferences on online dating sites. i've noticed that men often have a problem dating any woman more than two years older, but the 18 year olds that are 20 years their junior are fair game!! that, and so many dumbfuck men have unrealistic height-weight requirements for their dream dates. sometimes on nerve, i see men who prefer women who are 5'4" to 5'11" but 105-145 pounds?!!! they need to be on the streets looking for some single smack addict than on the web. stupid men, stupid... stupid. like i said before, maybe i should join gettoglam on the "women seeking women" search.

i'm getting bored with the men who have been contacting me, lately. i've given up on match, i don't know why i even keep my profile up. the men on that site are not my type and i'm not willing to drop some money to try and find them. on nerve, whenever my email mentions that i have a message from someone, i look up their profile first to even see if it's worth logging onto nerve to check the actual message. let's just say, i cut to the chase.

today, i get a message from some guy. i haven't read the message. i just needed to read:

in my bedroom, you'll find: two swimsuit calendars

all right. not only do i know i won't get along with some dipshit who gets titillated by looking at inaccessible beach bimbos in calendars, i also know that conversation won't be too thrilling with an idiot who needs TWO calendars to figure out what the fuck day it is.

update on the date with mestizo #1:

things i gleaned from conversation:

* he's a gemini/cancer cusp
* he used to be in a frat
* he wears pomade on a daily basis
* he showed up in a suit (i know, this isn't something you "glean" from anything. i just wanted to mention this fact).
* he's very disciplined with his life--he sounds like someone who'll make his bed everyday and pay his bills on time... actually, he even admitted that he does the latter.
* he has a good heart, but he's not my type

i'm confused, too, about his identity. his profile states that he's "caucasian--irish and asian." it turns out that he's 3/4 filipino, 1/4 irish. does he consider himself more white than anything?

things he said to me:

"you look younger than in your pictures."

when giving me his business card that had his personal address on it:

"you're not a stalker, are you?"

me: "uhhh... believe me. i'm not that diligent." yeah, especially because i'm not going to be waiting by the phone hoping you ask me out again!

he tried to walk me to my car, but instead i told him:

"oh, it's okay. i'm going to the market first. i need to buy some soy sauce. you don't have to come with me."
