Meet Jim. Jim is from Match.com. Jim met all of my initial dating criteria: good looks, fitness, education, and a stable career. After a few emails, I gave Jim my number. As you can see, Jim has one problem: he's one crazy little horndog!
There are so many angles I can take with this text message. I had gotten done telling him I was going to bed and I said good night. To most speakers of the English language, "good night" is an indication that the conversation is over. It is not an invitation to receive further text messages, like "ohhhh" and "mmmmm" or at 3:56 a.m. "I want to snuggle with you hun and give you kisses all over boo." Boo? Who says boo? Boo is what you say to a dog, not to a grown woman.
I told Jim the next day that he needed to tone it down. I told him that his late night messages turned me off, and that he hasn't even met me yet. Jim never responded, and rightly so. I'm pretty sure that Jim realized what an idiot he is to send these types of messages to a woman he hasn't met yet.
The lesson for the day: don't send crazy drunk texts to someone you've never met from an online dating site. If you think you're being cute, then know that you're not cute. In fact, you're showing that you're crazy, and you're going to make the person that you're texting think that you'll present bigger problems down the line.
Drunk texting usually means drunk idiot, and who wants to date a drunk idiot?
