The View From My Knees

Hey there, Let me first start by saying Im been told Im vert talented with my tongue and other parts of my body. Im totally into making my partner get the most out of a NSA relationship, which I must have been born for because I’ve been told I have a beautiful penis by many women. I have a lot of sexual energy, A LOT! I would love to make your toes curl and watch you bite your lip.Lets meet up, I’d love to rock your world. Im 26, 6’2″, 185 lbs br hair br eyes good looking, no acne, no diseases and drug free. Im looking for something casual. I’m very experienced at turning women on, and know how to treat a lady. Here’s a pic of me. I’d also like to see a pic of you to see if your my type. If you are we could have some real fun…. hope to hear back

Ps, Im not into paying for or joining any membership, just want to have some fun

-Epicurus

This email was in a response to an ad I’d placed in the Women Seeking Men section of a dating web site. I did not say that I wanted a NSA (no strings attached) relationship. There is, in fact, a whole section of this web site dedicated to NSA hookups. If Epicurus had responded with this email to an ad in one of those sections it would have been much more acceptable. But no, he responded to an ad by a girl looking for someone for potential long term friendships and dating. Strike one: Not paying attention to the type of relationship and responses a girl is looking for.

This email is also riddled with typos and misspellings, and has some pretty remedial grammar mistakes. If he talks like this in person, I don’t think I could hold a conversation with him. If he doesn’t, then he’s just too lazy to give his email a quick read before he hits the send button. Strike two: Not taking the time to make a good first impression.

You don’t get to see strike three for yourself, because I won’t post his picture, but Epicurus included one of those classic mirror shots of his bare chest. Again, if I’d posted in some kind of casual encounters forum and had requested body shots or made some kind of comment about how important looks were, this might have been appropriate. But given where my ad was placed and the qualities I asked for (sense of humor, open-mindedness, a sense of adventure) I don’t think it was the right way to go. He’d also done something I’d never seen before and had used a picture editing program to include “Please reply with pic!!!!” on his photo. Isn’t it enough to just request that in your email? Maybe I just don’t get how it’s done anymore.
