Internet Dating...WOW!

Internet dating...you know Match.com, E-Harmony, etc.  Let me just say, this is a great way to view and sort out the weeds in the "Garden of Single Hell".  I have connected to a few sites and have been amazed at how many emails you can receive the minute I posted my picture.  On one site, I was contacted 76 times the first day, on another site, 52 times...so there are a lot of people who are using internet dating sites.  I have met some pretty good men and I have met some losers...but the sites give you the option to chat and email one another to see if there is a connection or to block those you don't want to communicate with.   I recommend the Internet Dating sites.  So, here's the story of one guy, who completely lost his mind and how I responded (This is true factual story)!  Enjoy!

First rule you must observe...DO NOT GIVE OUT YOUR PERSONAL EMAIL ADDRESS!!  Get to know this person better.  I did not observe this rule...so, a serpent entered my email garden.  I will call him BUD!  Well, BUD and I were hitting it off pretty well, we swapped the usual divorce story, children, family, etc...you know all the normal getting to know you information.  Occasionally, some funny, witty banter back and forth about the dating world.  I never disclosed that I worked for a Marketing/Sales firm, just the fact that I worked in Gainesville, Georgia.  So, I gave BUD my personal email address and we began to correspond through that outlet.   Well, later that night I checked my email and I had an email from BUD, he was always so nice and polite (so, I thought!).  First let me give you a little bit of background on BUD...he owns a Karate Studio in Dalton, Georgia, so I thought of him to be well respected and trusted by many parents who send their children weekly to his Karate Studio for instruction in the martial arts.  Looks can be deceiving folks...pay attention to the people you involve your children with...SERIOUSLY!   Well, BUD's email starts out "Hello, Sweet Angel" **(First of all, most of you who know me...knows that is a false statement...LOL!!!)**  "I have enjoyed our many conversations and look forward go getting to know you better.  I have attached a few pics of me so you can get to know,me better."  Now, I was thinking to myself, awwww!  This is a really nice guy!  (WRONG!!)  I opened the pictures from the email attachment and I was shocked at the display of pornography this guy had displayed for me of his "MAN PARTS".  I promise, you it wasn't just one photo it was 5 or 6 different photos of his "MAN PARTS" creatively displayed.  I was stunned and shocked to see these photos to say the least.  But I also felt disrespected, angry and fear for the children he instructed in his Karate Studio.  I could not respond...it took me awhile to collect my composure, plus, I have to admit...the pictures were in great detail and did catch your attention.  I'm not sure what this guy was going for...but whatever effect he was hoping for, it didn't happen.  I had to think as to how I should respond to my perverted serpent in my email garden and THEN, it came to me!!!

I typed, "BUD, thank you for your recent email and the attached photos of your "MAN PARTS", I'm not sure what kind or response you were looking for, so I'll give you the only one I came up with.  I told you I was employed in Gainesville, Georgia, but I didn't say where.  Now, I feel it is time to let you know that I am a Corrections Office and I am forwarding your wonderful explicit photos to one of our Investigators in my office.  I hope you have a great evening!  Sincerely, Angela

Needless, to say, I never heard from BUD again and his account was deleted off the internet date site at warp speed.   I still have the email, just in case BUD, the perverted serpent tries to slip into my email garden again!!!  So, remember, to follow this rule "Don't give out your personal email address".  Guard against serpents in your email garden.
