Notes and observations
- One thing I’ve noticed through my Experiments so far is that Subjects treat their swearing habits differently. Some catch themselves as they are about to drop an F-bomb and apologize, others interject “pardon my French” before they swear, and some just let the curse words spew out like flies in a dumpster. This is interesting to me because – um, hello? – you only get one chance to make a first impression, and allegedly these guys are trying to meet someone they can seriously see themselves with. Granted, maybe they want someone who doesn’t mind frequent guttural language, but still, can’t you give the girl a chance to like you before she sizes you up over your potty mouth?
- Yesterday I wrote thirty-six online messages to twenty-seven different potential Subjects. BOOYAH.
- Funny little side story, I’ve mentioned that some guys are creepily sexual, and those guys get blocked from contacting me further. Well yesterday I had a rather fun interaction with a potential Subject that took on a very different oddness. We’d messaged back and forth a couple times about how our day was going. He had said that he had gone to the doctor’s and got good news. I said that was great and moved along, but he brought up his good clean bill of health again in the next message. I could tell he was fishing for me to ask about it, but I wasn’t about touch that with a your-health-is-none-of-my-damn-business foot pole, so I glossed over it yet again. Not to worry! He decided to spell it out for me anyway:
“Clean bills of health are always good especially when those STD test come back 100% negative. i am going to celebrate by going to bed at ten.”
Yes, ladies and gents, he felt it necessary to tell me he is free of the herpegonosyphilAIDS. Now there are two ways this can be read. First, he wants me to know because he wants to get me into bed and not worry about catching anything from him. The second, however, seems much more likely given the context of the rest of our conversations, and deducting that he is definitely not Mr. Popular with the ladies: this is the only time he’s ever been tested for anything and he felt the need to share the fact that he has actually had sex with someone before with a random stranger. Seriously.
Happy hump day all! See you back here tomorrow with the write-up for Experiment #5.
I’m so glad I missed out on that creepy part of dating “Hey let’s go get tested together..” Relationship Defining Moment…yick

Round about aids test is what it’s all about. Do you know anyone with aids? You don’t? Good, cuz you know me..

[...] to talking and there is nothing this man felt uncomfortable sharing with me. I mean, he wasn’t sharing his STD test results with me or anything, but I learned all about his dying uncle and his cousin in Iraq, which was a bit [...]
