- And now Guy # 3 - George (3/2/2017)
Now the other 2 contacted me first on POF, but this one I contacted. I saw he claimed to be in the army so I sent him a message to see what would happen. Well after 2 mornings of just hellos and how are you, today was more interesting. This is the text we exchanged today. And this was a first for me. I hope you can read this. I did screen shots into power point and then saved it as a jpeg. After the last message I blocked him from texting me. I noticed yesterday when I went onto POF he had blocked me on there. But this is the first time they actually asked me for something. I laughed when I read it. Just when things get boring something fun happens. I can't stress enough to the ladies out there (and men) don't fall for this. Never send money or anything to someone you've never met. NEVER!!!
- Guy #2 - Paul Skroch (3/2/2017)
Okay, so here is the email I got from this one: On 3/2/17, Paul Skroch Hi Angel ....., I'm so excited to read from you so soon. Please confirm you receive this message so I could send more about me. I am looking for my second half, a woman to spend the remaining seconds of my life with. Waiting to here from you, Smiles~ Paul Now here is his second one to me today: Hello ...., I am so happy to read from you and most importantly, to know we are both looking for the same thing in life. Where do I start from? Really, it is disturbing to go on that dating site to see how much people appreciate love, but yet, we have to go the extra mile to get this great status. I have a beautiful home in St Louis and seeks a beautiful angel, both inward and outward. Forgive my manners, my name is Paul Skroch, a global contractor.I own my construction company I deal basically in oil platforms, rig constructions, renovations, over water bridges, interior decors and some art works. Trust me, I can add to your beauty (lol). But I am really thinking of hanging the hat this year. Been through many ups and downs in life, yet, I am blessed in some other ways. I mean after getting to the top of success, I have come to realize that we are nothing without a partner. I mean someone who would stand by me no matter the situation. A woman who I can say, she alone has the right to be womanly irritating to me (lol). A witch who would protect me like a lioness would do her cub (lol). And I can promise to protect her beyond all vices. A woman who tells me, honey, you can do it, no matter what I want to do. I have really worked hard in the past 12 yrs to get to this height. I have seen faces of women on that site, many of whom have been taken for granted, many of whom are not being reciprocated, but I have come with a good news and a bad news. The good news is, I am here to pick my woman to make happy, my second half, my best friend, my co-pilot, but the bad news is, I have only one woman to do this for (lol). I saw something in your face, something that made my heart pause to read you, something that tickles in the heart, could that be love at first sight? Maybe we could find that out (lol). I'm talking about faith here cos when feelings are so powerful, it's as if some forces beyond your control are guiding you to someone who can make you happy beyond your wildest dreams. I hope we can now have a direct communication via email cos I do not want to go on a dating site ever again Paul I can't help but laugh. The wording and the things that are said. LOL!!!
- Guy # 1 Tony Williams (3/2/2017)
Okay, I couldn’t wait to get home from work today so I blog about a couple of guys. I will do separate blogs for each of them. The first one is Tony Williams. (If that’s his real name). I have to share the 2 emails I got from him. This is the first one: On Mar 2, 2017, at 2:32 AM, Hello, I jut need to remind you about my profile or our chat also tell you more about myself, My name is Tony Williams, I am 56 years old. I am Irish National but i live and here in Lake, St.Louis Missouri. Am divorced because my best friend slept with my wife and i do not want to remember that day because life goes on > > I have one Daughter who live away from my home and her name is Linda and she is 10 years old. Well I do really wished to know you better and to meet you one of these days. I do not care about distance as traveling is one of my hobbies. I do travel every month because of the kind of job I do. I am a mechanical / Electrical Engineer by profession and work in a shipping line as the director of operations. I have been with the company for 11 years > > I`m an athletic build, mentally stable, physically fit, a bunch of laughs, warm, caring, honest, a good listener, God Fearing, and a positive person. I am real easy person to talk to and a loving and outgoing father. I enjoy playing sax which i do often at my leisure time. I like going to the movies, or watching movies in my room or Cabin, I like swimming, listening to music and dance to any kind of music, i sing, sailing, going bowling and also a good cook. I am a family oriented person, love children and there is more, but it would be better for you to find some things out for yourself. Looking forward to hear from you about yourself and please take good care of yourself and have a wonderful day while waiting for your response. I care, Tony And here is the second one I received this morning: Hello Charla, I was so much excited to read your mail and thanks so much for taking your time to write me in spite of your busy schedule. Content of mail well understood and noted. I am confident you are in good health. Honestly, there is so much I want to tell you and so many things I want to ask you, I don't know where to start I am new at this online dating thing so please understand if I am a little awkward at it. I am writing this message to you not for the fun of it, but because I want you to take some time for yourself and read carefully. Let me start by saying that I thank God since I met you. As you may have known, the fountain of any relationship must spring up in the mind. It is very important for me to express to you how much you really mean to me. I wish I could do this in person while gazing into your eyes, but since we are physically separated by distance of emptiness, this expression must come in the form of letters such as this. To me, you are first of all my friend and then something more greater in the near future. God willing. To be honest with you, I am really short of words here, but one thing I do know is that I have the arms to give you a hug, ears to listen to whatever you want to talk about through chat, mail or phone, and I have a heart; a heart that is aching to see your smile. I would like to use this opportunity to say I am delighted to have met you. To tell you more about me, I am an honest, kindhearted, hardworking man who does need the support of a loving woman. Ideally, l am someone who is confident in what he want and who he is. We all face tough situations in our lives and we sometimes tend to be mislead by it. A lot of times we often tend to give up. In this life, I have chosen to give up numerous times but I am proud to say that I have also chosen to stay strong and be patient all these years. which has now led to my finding you. He who seek happiness; they say, by changing anything but his own disposition will waste his life in fruitless efforts and multiply the grief which he purposes to remove. Your living is determined not so much by what life brings you as by the attitude you bring to life; not so much by what happens to you as by the way your mind looks at what happens. This is the reason I have decided to move on in life in spite of my incalculable loss. Yes! Distance doesn't permit the action to be seen, rather, words convey the feelings when distance hinders. No matter the distance that separates us now, I can assure you that this gap will be bridged as we really get to know each other. As the saying goes: "True Love and Friendship knows no boundaries and no distance; miles and obstacles mean absolutely nothing in the face of love" Though miles may lie between us right now, we'll never be apart forever, for friendship doesn't count the miles, it's measured by the heart. Now that dishonesty and disbelieve seems to be taking over our souls these days, to know there are people like you makes all the problems look smaller It’s great to be your friend and to be able to look into the future and see a mix of serenity and hope. This fairly recent friendship is something I consider to be sacred already. It makes me have faith again in some simple but fundamental human values which sometimes; for the lack of practice, we swipe under the carpets of our memories and of our hearts. For me, this new friendship is precious and that’s why I will intend to keep it till the end of my days. I believe we can achieve that, because I have faith in you and I have more and more faith in life and in the future. Those who have a friend like you fear nothing. Always bear in mind that my affection and true friendship will be yours forever. My job will be taking me to Australia by Saturday (Sailing for a month and I will really like us to line of contact open so as to know each other better) Take good care of your self and have a wonderful day. Hug and sweet kisses. Sincerely, Tony Are you laughing yet? Well first I am not Charla. I emailed him back and asked if he was emailing the right girl that Charla wasn’t my name. Then at lunch I wrote this back to him: I don't think you are real or sincere. I think you are a scammer so please don't contact me anymore. Patsy And I haven’t heard back. Which I didn’t expect too. The wording and the way he writes shows he isn’t an American. Now he’s not in the army but these nut balls are out there.
- My Blog business card (2/27/2017)
I had a fun weekend. On Saturday night I was out to dinner with my best friend MaryAnn. We’ve known each other since we were kids. Been through everything together. So nothing I do out in public embarrasses her. I created a business card to advertise my blog. And I pass it out any chance I get. I put them in the folders when I pay the bill at a restaurant. Well on Saturday we were at Biggies on Watson (good food and fun atmosphere). So behind us was a table of people. One guy and several girls. He was telling his story about his being the “Rebound guy”. Meaning the girls he meets they are on the rebound and he ends up there. Anyway I thought this was a good opportunity to give out one of my cards. When we paid our bill I went to his table. I said I couldn’t help but hear his Rebound Guy story. I gave him my card and said you have to read my online dating blog. It is funny and I think he would enjoy it. I told him I also had a you tube channel and my interview with Channel 5. He was so nice. He asked if I was on facebook and I said I was. He said he would friend me. Anyway, if I was with my 17 year old daughter she would have been embarrassed and ran out the door without me. LOL!! But not MaryAnn. She got a kick out of it. I couldn’t tell if he was wearing a ring or not and if he was I do apologize. I in no way want to come between him and his girl. But his story made me laugh and I love sharing my card and stories with everyone. I am having more cards printed up. I also order a dozen pens with my online blog on it to pass out her and there. I want to have a t-shirt made too so I can wear it out and be advertisement for my blog. I think when you are out and you see a guy you think you’d like to get to know, you should be able to walk up to them and talk to them. It’s the 21st century so I believe women can make the first move. I think guys would be flattered. Guys: What do you think? My next post will be a list of my tips for your online dating profiles. I posted a couple in my earlier blogs but will put them together and add some more. Of course, these are just my suggestions. J Lastly for tonight, this Friday begins the fun Fish Fry season in St. Louis. Not sure how other cities are but the fish fries in Lent are huge here. I want to put in a plug for the one I work at every Friday. St. Cecilia’s Mexican Fish Fry. Besides the usual fish dishes they offer Chili Relleno, Cheese Quesadilla and Bean Tostada. They also have a tamale cart that goes around while you are in line (and the lines are long). They also have pico de gallo and the best Margarita’s (so I’m told). All Mexican dishes are made by the wonderful Mexican community at St. Cecilia’s. The school kids doing Mexican dancing through the night and a strolling Mariachi band is there as well. It’s a fun time.
- So what happened today! (2/17/2017)
Okay, so today I had a new guy contact me on POF. We exchanged 2 messages and then he asked about my luck on the site. So I told him. A minute later he blocked me. SCAMMER ALERT!!! But the other day after my interview I received a facebook message from a guy. It's not just the guys going after women to scam them, women also are doing the same. I got his permission to share his story but I won't use his name. "It's just as I said before. Match.com, I go on trying to find someone because eharmoney completely failed me. I get one person in my inbox that was interested in me for what they claimed was who I was. They claimed to be a descendant of royalty that's been cast off for whatever reason (or might not have) but they make a living traveling and selling what they buy back here in the states. After a week or so of talking she said she needed help (this was back before I knew about this kind of scam) and wanted me to transfer funds to her so she could get through customs and if she didn't she would be forced to be homeless and whatnot. I took the stimulus they sent to everyone that qualified at the time to the nearby money transfer place and when they asked what I was doing with it they refused to transfer for me explaining why. I told her I couldn't and she basically begged me till I said no...that was the last I heard from her....2 weeks later or so I get matched again with someone and when I message them back I get the same starting conversation as before and I told them kiss my ass." Thank you friend for allowing me to share this story.
- Today's story
So today while I was at work my co-worker Sharon showed me a guy on Plenty of Fish. He sounded cool. Looking for someone bubbly (me), sense of humor (me), positive person (me). So I looked him up and sent him a message. We sent a few short messages to each other. I mentioned about my interview and he said awesome. Then says “I love sex.” I laughed. I sent him a note back “Thanks but no thanks.” Click send and then blocked him. LOL!!! At least he wasn’t military. (At least I don’t think he was). I did have a nice chat with another guy. He was getting ready to meet someone who he was really interested. He asked how I was doing on the site. I told him about all the liars etc. He said he had the same. I mentioned my blog and my interview. End of conversation So this morning I get message from him. He saw me on the news last night. He said he said he thought this was great that I was doing this. And said a few other nice things. He said he liked the girl he met and he would be removing his profile but wanted to let me know. That was nice. He wished me luck. And I wished him luck too. My old school friend Pam is trying to get the word out even more about my blog and interview. She is on a mission to make this go national. I am trying too. I am going to update my card a bit this week. My co-worker Rosa said we should do t-shirts. I was also thinking about bumper stickers. We’ll see. :)

- Happy 2017 (2/5/2017)
Sorry I haven't posted lately. I have more stories. Are you really surprised? :) A friend of mine has called this a sport for me now. Spotting them just gets easier and easier. I have about 3 more fake military guys. Had one last week, not sure he was military, he sent me a message on plenty of fish. I read it and he just sounded too good to be true. So I responded back with a short message: "Thank you for the lovely compliments. The picture of you and your daughter is precious. Are you for real or are you a scammer?" Yes I did send that message. The next day I checked on POF and guess what? He blocked me. SCAMMER ALERT!!!

- More fakers!!! (12/3/2016)
Okay, I don’t know what it is, but more and more fakers are coming out of the woodwork. I think since my last post I had about 4 more guys claiming to be in the army. I may have said this before but it I’ve read they target women over 50 and who are lonely. Well, this chick isn’t lonely or desperate. But of course they don’t know that. J I have another one today who claims to be in the army. I’ll let him tell me all about himself and then I’ll slap him with my story about how many guys on here have said they are in the army and really aren’t. Again, this is disgrace to our military men and women. I have a great idea on a dating website. No written profiles!! It should be videos. You have to record a video of yourself where you talk about yourself. What better way to show who you are. I think you would get a better picture of the person and hear their voice and hear them speak. Being fake would be harder. I know some will try but maybe this would slow them down. I love this idea. I work in the IT department I should see if anyone is interested in creating a sight like this and I could run it. Any takers? I’m serious!!!!! Don’t forget to check out my You Tube channel.
