Online dating has come a long way since Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan were star-crossed lovers. Or whatever. And I don't know if that's a good or bad thing. What I do know is that maybe a few men should take tips from the kid in that movie. Even he knew that "hi sexy" wasn't an appropriate greeting, let alone entire message. So here are some tips for the flavors who want a response from me. Obviously, you need a little help.
1) Your profile is not just a longer version of a text message. The only single letters should be "I" and "A".
2) Use basic grammar. I'm not asking for a thesis. But subject / verb agreement would be nice.
3) The phrase "hit at me" should not appear anywhere on your profile or in a message to me. I am a grown woman. I am not "hitting" at anything unless you are taking me to a ballpark. And even then, I will not hit at the ball, I will hit the ball.
4) Please do not go on and on about how women are all about drama and you don't want drama. And please do not put it in all caps. Why are you yelling?
5) Your first message to me should consist of more than just you telling me I have sexy lips.
I have more, but this is a good start.
