four days running

[jchrisobrien]

I deleted my OKCupid account today, after what must be the fiftieth woman messaged me that I would never go out with. I don't need this kind of negative reinforcement, thanks.
Facebook and Myspace are on the cusp too. One I never really use, and the other is just a duplicate for almost everyone I know (except for one person I have no business talking to ever).
Livejournal stays, because I've been here forever, and I'm not limited to 140 characters per post (you go to hell, twitter.)

History tells me there is a light at the end of the tunnel. So I will listen to history, and not my head, even though this tunnel is black as pitch. There are things crawling in it.

Adding to the peanut gallery

Unless your poly, desperate ducks or looking for new friends, there’s no reason to have an OKCupid. I got rid of mine for some of the same reasons you did + the foot fetish freaks. (For some reason I attract the foot fetish people on dating websites, there must be photos floating around on the interwebs and it’s just my bare feet. Gross!) At least you don't get any of that type of negative feed back!

I don't have the TIME to date someone I'm not passionate about for six months on the off chance something comes of it.

I’m not that old but I hate to waste time as well. I’m sick of dating somebody for 6 mounts or even 2 years and then things fall apart for whatever reason. At the moment for myself, I want to tell the Universe to stop sending me 30 something’s that want to get married and have children. I mean, WTF? In my opinion the Universe has been full of fail lately.

I don't even think about marriage or children, because I need to date someone first.

I don't want to waste time, but I have little time to waste.
