ohhhh, they're getting clever. either that or desperate. Suffering from ads?

Ok, what do you think about this? I'm on match.com, one of those online personals websites. i like meeting new people, and this is a pretty good way to meet people from all over the world . . . anyway this person "winked" at me (thats what you do to show interest in another persons profile on match.com) and her profile seemed interesting, so I winked back. We chatted VERY briefly online for a bit (maybe a few minutes) then she said she had to go, but she'd send me an email with a more lenghty introduction, and some more pics. Several days pass. then i get this email from her
quote:
Hi! How are you? Can you believe it's November already? 2003 is gonna be over with a blink of an eye. Days are just flying by! I finally had some time to contact you back. We were chatting the other day on match, and I'm sorry I had to bail so soon. You probably didn't believe I'd write you, but I did! =)

I have to say, I feel kind of weird using personal ads to meet a man, but the ones I've met at bars or clubs usually are putting on an act, or are too busy trying to be cool in front of their friends. Don't get me wrong, I'm an outgoing and social person but that scene gets old really fast. Anyway, my girlfriend told me she met a guy that she hit it off with on the match website so I'm giving it a shot )

Well, about me, I'm an active person and like to experience new things and meet new people. I'm not that complicated to please, unlike some women, so an expensive date is not what I require. When a man puts some thought into it shows me he cares more than just throwing some money around. Intimacy is an important part of a relationship but I'm not someone who sleeps around. I just don't get intimate with someone I don't know. I'm not saying months or even weeks, just long enough that I know you're not some guy that loves playing with different women's heads!

If you're looking for the same then we should get to know each other better and maybe get together sometime. Let's shoot for next weekend. That will give us some time to talk. To be honest, the pic I had up on match wasn't me because I don't completely trust those things. So here are my true pics. *here she inserted her website address* I'd love to hear your opinion,there are a few surprises I think you'll like.

xoxo's....Teresa

and i go to that website(don't worry, there's no porn here), (conveniently linked for you here )

Ok, so after I see that, the *this person is trying to sell me porn* alarms start going off . . . but this has gotta be the most time-consuming approach i've ever seen to selling porn before. What do you think?

ehh, that's not my point. my point is, i don't think she's a "real person" . . . maybe that's really her in those pics, but she's not interested in meeting people, other than for an opportunity to sell her porn site. i'm not interested in meeting people so that they can sell me things, i can find porn by myself, thank you. ya know?

man, you go look at her profile, and then think "does any thing seem out of the ordinary?"

NO, it doesn't! she seems like any other normal person out there, that just wants to meet people online! it wasn't until i saw her "website" that anything seemed amiss.

Maybe I'm naive but it where exactly does it say it's a porn site?
Of course it could still be that she's not real and its' a "trick" to get you to join and eventually give them your money...

i don't know if it's a porn site or not, i'm not giving my money to find out though. my point is, she's trying to sell something and this is one of those oddest ways to so do that i've ever encountered.

Please!

This is so contrived! It's obvious the lady in the website is trying to self promote. She probably wants to build interest in her website by appearing "real" and not having to do any nasty stuff, like have sex with guys.

She's probably one of those lipstick lezzies.

If I'm wrong and she ends up being your girlfriend, my apologies.

It's not a porn site. The person you "chatted" with was likely a bot or some wage slave to hook you. "She" was just a clever ploy to get you to come to "her" datinging site.

It's not at all obvious from her match.com profile alone. if it is to you, tell me why.

Connor, this really looks like a very sophisticated con game. That letter to you was obviously "canned."

As well, I think she may be interested in a "personal" one-on-one for a few dollars. Definintely not "girlfriend" material.
