When did facebook become eHarmony?

DISCLAIMER: this isn't to be taken as a vain rant or being full of myself. I'm just expressing my frustration of things that have been happening a lot!

I had enough men throwing themselves, literally sometimes, at me while I was in a relationship but now that I'm single? this is getting ridiculous...

This is the reason why I hide my relationship status.. I thought that by hiding that I was "officially single" again, I would be able to duck some of these creeps.

Yes I'll admit some men are genuinely just looking for companionship and have good hearts. Yes, I have wonderful friends that admit to having feelings but they set it aside for our friendship, but when someone swoops in RIGHT after someone gets out of a relationship? poor taste I must say.. I don't know about them but I wouldn't want to be someone's rebound, that's for sure.

I call facebook eharmony because I keep getting messages from random men that happen to have mutual friends in the district or from my old church that expect me to befriend them because they feed me hyper spiritual jargon and think I'm going to believe it.

One guy literally wrote me a NOVEL... I thought I was long winded!!! not now! He wrote me a novel about his life's story and how spiritual he is and then proceeds to say he's interested in me and that I'm beautiful. He didn't even know if I was single or not and said that he would like to be friends and see where it goes from there....

REALLY??????

SUCH a turn off...

Even on myspace I had someone ask me to marry them via message... and a guy messaged me saying, "I'm gay but I have to say you're one of the most beautiful women I've ever seen. You're so cute, can I keep you in my pocket?" WHHHAAAAA???

here's a heads up for any guy who is using their connections and sweet talking abilities and spirituality (or facade of it) to try and rope in women... the women who are actually spiritual and strong in their faith won't fall for it and it'll backfire in your face! Quit seeking out "the one" and be content in the season you're in. Trust God's timing. Yeesh people do I have to spell it out??

I'm going to buy a potato sack and wear it. Maybe my dad was onto something..

.... end scene
