The world of online dating is still quite new to me & as old fashioned as I am, I find it quite bizarre. After becoming single a few months ago from a long term relationship, one of my girlfriends asked me where I thought I might meet the man of my dreams. Being slightly more romantic than is probably realistic, I explained that I was sure while I was out taking pictures of local architecture, we would bump into each other in the street, lock eyes, & on apology instantly fall in love.... I know, I know only in the movies right. She told me to get a grip and join Plenty of Fish.
Personally, I feel like online dating is one of those places for lonely weirdos that can’t get a date in real life; but the reality is that everyone & I literally mean EVERYONE does it. While I’ve been settled in a relationship for the past 5 years it’s become the norm & it’s the new place to meet your Friday night meal ticket & your husband apparently. I personally don’t cherish the idea of telling my children one day that “Mummy met Daddy online” where’s the romance & the butterflies!?
Anyway, to give you a little taster of what my online dating profile has brought to me, I thought I would share with you, some of the best (meaning best of the worst) opening lines that have been fired my way in hopes of scoring a first date... or as it seems a bit of sexting.
