Help! I'm drowning in cheese! I can't take the cheesy emails that I receive from guys on dating sites. Look, I know it's hard to send that initial email, so I'll give them some points for creativity, but some of these are just too much.
I wasn't planning to share this one, but a few friends got a kick out of it (literally cracked up laughing), so I guess it's worth sharing! Again, since I didn't plan to share it, I didn't save the email, but it went something like this...I opened up the email and it basically said, "Congratulations! You've won a free toaster! Well, you haven't won a free toaster, but you get to talk to me, which is better!" I guess guys think they are employing tactics that will work with a certain type of girl...and I guess I'm not that type of girl!
Somewhat along the same lines is one I received today from a 36-year old guy in NJ. Pretty straight and to the point, the email simply said,
"Why don't we have plans for this weekend?"
Take Away Lesson: Gimmicks may work with a small percent of the population who can apprectiate the humor, but being genuine is probably the better approach.
