The Most Insane Messages I’ve Ever Received On OkCupid

“I know you don’t know me but I’m kind of a big deal;)”

By

Part of me felt peer pressured into my decision to open an online dating account and put myself out there. Perhaps it was my initial lack of enthusiasm that set the disastrous/doomsday tone for my overall experience. (I’m not sure if going on about five first dates TOTAL qualifies as an experience, but whatever).

Though it started out as a New Year’s resolution/joke/dare between me and a few of my close girlfriends, my dating profile quickly went from an eye roll-worthy thought bubble to a painfully disappointing reality.

It would be quite a stretch to say I was ever fully “active” during my half-hearted attempt at all of this, but that definitely did NOT stop my inbox from overflowing with alarming, and at times terrifying messages from my digital “suitors.”

And since I’ve opted out of this lackluster attempt at finding lust/love and will never talk to or meet any of these guys ever in life, I’ve decided that oversharing the horror that filled my inbox on a daily basis is not only appropriate, it’s necessary. So with that, I’m publicly purging my inbox and leaving all of these crazy one-way exchanges behind me. (Read at your own risk).
