Confusing me
Hard to see
Can’t decide
What to hide

Confusing emotions
yes no I hate you so
what is true
I don’t know.

Conflicting motions
feeling devotions
hiding emotions
want to scream
want to dance
want to hide
and die inside

can’t decide
stoic vision
want to change
want to fly
want to go

confusing me
confusing you
never know
what is true

Personals Woes

leave a comment »

So I’ve been putting some ads on Craigslist’s personals section lately.

I’ve noticed a few things.

It is a full-time job culling out the posts from bots.

When you post on the dating section almost all responses are from escorts, thinly veiled advertisements of for-pay personals sites (including disguised escort sites), or phishing scams.

When you post on strictly platonic you can actually find real people but .. they are looking for friends.. but I suppose that is a good place to start.

In the last two weeks I have only had one person respond who is genuine and interesting to talk to. However she lives about 18 hours away and only contacted me ’cause she wanted someone to hang out with when she visits next week.

Sometimes it can be pretty amusing. Like the latest from “cherry” who very enthusiastically (with poor grammer/spelling) wants to “hook up” and whose email address has a male name.
