Trawling

Sometimes I just don't feel special on PoF. Especially when I get form messages from guys. Especially when that's all in my inbox. I had two messages this morning and the guys' user names seemed familiar so I used the "View all correspondence" feature to check and see. Turns out the messages from both guys were the same, word for word. On one hand, I guess I could be flattered they thought I was pretty enough to send their standard message twice but, on the other hand, I'm clearly not memorable enough for them to realize that they've been there, done that, and I never responded.

Things like this make me think I should be more cynical about online dating, like Ginny. But I just don't have it in me. Or, perhaps more aptly, the optimism hasn't been beaten out of me by PoF yet.
