"Hey _____;
Sharing stories sometime is possibility, but it seems that something just got kind of serious with someone for me here, so I've decided to close my account. It has nothing to do with you, if I wasn't knee-deep already I would totally want to meet you. And who knows, I could be back at any point. We'll see.
Take care,
_______"
And this;
"Hey _____,
I'm not sure if I can pull this off without it being an excuse, but I want to apologize for not writing back to your message. I feel like the online dating thing is a party I went to in another city where I met one or two interesting people but overall just realized the need to get involved in my own community and invest my time here. And though I left early, our brief conversation will probably encourage me to try this thing out again when I'm in a place where it actually works.
Take care,
______"
I feel like I might want to deactivate my account for awhile. I'm feeling like I'm tapped out and the last marathon of messaging/dating has taken it out of me.
We'll see.
Sigh, the problems of a tall attractive white male.
ReplyDeleteBut hasn't it been fun to go out, meet new people and go to new places? It gives you a reason to leave the house! Maybe it's not leading you to the pot of gold you were looking for but isn't the journey kinda nice? Purpose is one of life's great motivators and so I'm sure you'll miss it when it's gone.
ReplyDeleteI don't know, this is all from my view down here as an average-height attractive asian male.
The net effect has been a negative one. And bad dates, even though they may make good stories, are still bad dates. I can only take so much punishment, ha ha!
ReplyDeleteI just need a breather. I haven't given up.
