This past year I lost my PC - so when I bought a new one, I had to re-establish all of my lost favorites. I decided that since I read but rarely post on message boards, there was no reason to join and create profiles for most of them.
Imagine my surprise when reading one of them, I saw my own name mentioned in a "whatever happened to..." thread. So.... in order to reply (that I am indeed still alive and kicking), I had to create a profile on that forum.
I really thought that the profile I created was clear enough to discourage those who are looking to "hook up"... the first line of the profile is "No, I am not seeking romance." You'd think that would be enough.
I apparently underestimated the sheer relentless drive of the Freak Species so prevalent on the internet.
Daily, I am the recipient of messages like:
"I'll make you obey me!"
"I'd like to suck your toes!"
or my personal favorite -
"Are you married or just discreet?"
Good Grief!
I suppose one must take comfort in the truth - No matter how much we evolve, some things just never change.
Wish you well,
