What is in a name?  is it your inner soul, or your wished for image?  On the dating sites, names tell you a lot about the person, especially because they’re all trying to come across as something.  Sometimes it’s the real self, or at least the attempt to share the real self.  More often, I suspect, it’s the Look they want to have, the persona they would like to be seen as, with sunglasses and a great hair day.

Thought I’d share one of the more amusing aspects to this JOB I’ve taken on, of interviewing hot prospects, who either look good, sound good, or keep on hustling me.

Since this has been a source of delightful chuckles for me, I thought it only fair that I compile a list of some great examples.  I hope you enjoy these.

Funguyhot…. Ok, let’s give a little more….”I am very sexually active, and like to see great movies and find good restaurants.  I’m not interested in a religious nut.  I particularly like Teachers (hmmmm? A little role playing?).   She has to be beautiful and sexy and highly intelligent and finds interest in almost everything in life.”      OK, just a simple guy, not asking for much… he better be rich…

dammitdan … suffers from Turrets?

escapee … “enjoys sexual adventures w right partner, and for her to wear something silky as opposed to cotton to bed” …  uh, where did he escape from pray tell? and well,  he certainly knows what He wants…

nonprophet … cute name…oh this one was 5’3”, an absolutely adorable leprochan in suspenders, a sort of checkered visor cap, with thumbs up and a big grin… he kept sending flirts, and says he’s very supportive of sick partners, and hopes for the same back.

…and saving the best for last….

GR8LAY ….  He’s from Florida, a burly black guy with a big gap tooth grin,  shown casually posing, arms akimbo, against large and famous places, casinos, waterfalls, sweeping scenics, wearing a Hawaiian shirt and looking all buff, and he mentions he likes to Travel, like to Europe and the Caribbean… I think he knows what he likes too…!

Enjoy the day!  I will, cause IT’S MY BIRTHDAY!!

LOVE ALL of YOUS…..
