The Strangest Experiences I Have Had On Dating Sites
Years ago when I used to use the dating sites for dating, I had quite a few dates. I never had a bad experience unless you count boredom on a date a bad experience. I had a few of those. But I also had a lot of very fun dates and really never disliked any of the girls I met. A few became good friends over the years. There was some romance here and there, but I’m not easy to warm up to and I have a standoffish personality with women so I never let them get too close. Eventually, the ones who are interested in me give up.But there were a couple of things that happened during my dating site extravaganza that were particularly memorable.
The first one happened I’m going to say maybe 7-10 years ago, I don’t remember exactly. It was on MD. Some here will know what that is.
I got a very strange message from a woman who claimed to be a matchmaker for celebrities and she said she had a client interested in meeting me. My first reaction was yeah right. I mean I am about the last person a scammer would ever want to waste their time on. I was sure it was a scam.
So she asked if we could talk on the phone and she would tell me more. As skeptical as I was, I was still intrigued, so I told her okay provided I can call her instead of her calling me. And I asked her to be sure to give me her office number so I can look it up and trace it to her business. She did! I did! It was! I was shocked at that point. In fact that number was registered to a dating agency that specializes in finding dates for celebrities. And I even went on their website and saw a profile of this woman that contacted me there. Couldn’t believe it was legit.
So anyway I called her and she told me something about this woman including a basic physical description but could not reveal anything that would identify her because she would have to remain anonymous until we met. That was the rule. It would be a blind date. Hmmmmmmm. I don’t do blind dates, but I didn’t say anything. She said she was a very well known actress who had homes in both New York, and California and was taking a break in between sessions shooting a movie overseas. I mean if I didn’t know this woman was legit, I wouldn’t have believed a word I was hearing.
So I asked her why this woman wanted to meet me. She said she thought I was attractive and liked the things I said. Okay now I was REALLY suspicious! ;-)
So I told her that I wanted to think it over and would get back to her. I thought it over and decided not to do it. I just couldn’t get passed the blind date thing. She would know what I look like and something about me, but I knew pretty much nothing about her. That just made me uncomfortable.
I still don’t regret it, but I do wonder, every time I think about it who it was. I will never know...
Okay the second story.
I was on another dating site. Can’t remember which one it was. This girl had something in her profile that caught my attention and I wrote her a short note to comment on it. She didn’t have a picture posted in her profile, and in those days that was a no go for me as far as dating because it was just a waste of time if I met someone and wasn’t physically attracted to her.
Her name was Kitty.

I pretty much do what you do as far as coming on here, for the blogs.
As for MD, I enjoyed my time while it lasted there before they sold out to another site.
