Trying to remove foot from mouth

Remember the post last week in which I wrote that somebody sounding like a Russian mail-order bride was on match.com using someone else's pictures to contact me? And remember I wrote that I contacted the "real" person to alert them that they were being defrauded.

Some of you who read that post commented that I was sooo smart in looking this woman up. And one of my good blogging pals who knows people in high places at match.com even said she would contact the dating web site to out that woman.

Well, turns out that woman was the real thing.

After I sent an email to the "real" person telling her about the "fake" person, the real person sent this reply:

"Its me on match.... but I have decided I have much more important things to accomplish right now than surfing endless profiles for love."

Then she added;

"Really, my ad is that bad, not that I have anything against russian's either? LOL."

I felt like a total fool. I sent her an email apologizing.

Her reply: "I appreciate you looking out for me...thanks"

By the way, I haven't went out on any dates yet.

Wow! That's actually pretty funny (and I'm sure you'll see it this way due time.)

At least you're trying! Hopefully you'll have better luck soon. :)

Since I've known you through many romances, I'm so glad you're being suspicious/paranoid/cautious/smart/apprehensive about online dating. Ha ha. You'll find your perfect match, it just takes time. You're a great guy, so don't give up on love!
