Dear Mimi,
Here’s my problem. I am not getting any responses to
my Internet ad? Why I am a fairly good looking, well educated
personable guy. My user name is dicketydo1.
Dear
Dicketydo1.
First off, change your damn user name. What were
you thinking? Wait Stop I don’t want to know. A girl
doesn’t want to tell her friend “I met this really
cool guy on edate.com check him out. His user name is dicketydo1”
Yeah right! . We want smart, hip real guy usernames. I read
your bio, you are a catch. But, no one is going get past the
dicketydo1. Get on it and get on it now! Change your nickname
baby. Be creative darling, and be smart.

Dear
Mimi,
Every time I meet someone realtime after connecting
with them on any dating site, even if I’ve spent hordes
of time chatting & sending them more photos of myself
they are turned off by me? what’s up? Real-time.
Dear Real-time,
Okay, now are you being totally strait up, when you’re
chatting to them? Are you sending pictures that are less than
10 yrs old? Are you portraying yourself as who you really
if you hadn’t met online? If you answered YES to all
of the above, then maybe what your problem is that you’re
expecting too much of yourself. Maybe, baby, you’re
going overboard & the gal is sensing that you’re
a nervous tomcat. First time jitters can make even the most
sensible feller say, or do, stupid animals tricks. Next time
you find a really cool doll online & you agree to meet,
take a deep breath, put a 100 watt smile on your face step
up to the plate and relax baby, relax. Let her do most of
the talking, be a gentleman and by that I mean standing up
when she has to use the little lady’s room to powder
her nose then when the little feline comes back you get up
again, & move the chair in for her. Let her do the talking,
you do the listening. God, if there is one thing we like to
do it’s “talk” So smitten she will be that
you will have her lapping up her bedtime milk and you will
be her Tiger in her dreams. All because you didn’t trip
head over toes to impress her, but rather, you snared her
with your “good manners and gallant charm”
Of
course there will be females that will write in, as well.

Dear
Mimi,
Why is it that, for the most part, the men on these dating
sites bio’s are so damn cheesy & well dumb? If I
read one more time “I like curling up in front of a
roaring fire with a nice bottle of red wine on a cold rainy
nite” I’m going to puck like Linda Blair in the
exorcist.
Dear
Ms. Blair,
Agreed, agreed darling. But, let’s face it times they
are a changing so fast that the poor lil’ creatures
don’t know what the heck we want to hear. Does she want
a real dude, a real gentleman, does she want the equal treatment
kinda guy, or does she want someone just like dear ol Dad?
Wouldn’t you be confused??? My advice to your little
dilemma is this. If there is even a “small table scrap”
in his ad that appeals to the cochelles of your heart cut
the poor guy a little slack. Forget his dull boring bio. His
Mother might have written it for him. We, as women, always
want JUST what we want, no more, no little. But, come on,
do we ever really get just what we want? No. Double ditto
for guys. Get chatting to him, ask him pointed Q’s.
Men respond to direct questions, just like we respond to the
word SHOE SALE. Have a list of questions that are important
to you & ask. Your head list of what’s important
to you. If he gets at least 4 out of 10 he’s worthy
of at least a second chance. Everyone is worthy of second
chances. You might be passing up a “real hot”
opportunity. Being persnickety will get you “0”
results.
Mimi
