I have been overwhelmed by the responses to my profile posting.

The quick fix I wanted I got! As I stared at the computer screen I was like a child on Christmas Day and did not know what to look at first. There were smiles, instant messages and messages.

The smiles are an immediate way of making contact without having to say anything but simply expressing an interest in a  profile.

The instant messages are a way of communicating whilst the writer is online and you can have mini chats whilst online together.

And the  message where you send it like  an email  but within the confines of the site with the added bonus of not having to hand out your personal email.

I opened the first message with trepidation -  it went like this " Hi honey your’re so pretty would love to hear from you xxxxxxxx".

Well if this was how things were going to continue  I was gonna need a very big bucket, because of the rising sensation of nausea,  I FELT SICK!

I can handle being told I’m pretty, who wouldn’t, but the honey and kisses made my skin crawl. I think you need to be embedded in a relationship of sorts to receive those kinds of words and familiarity - call me old fashioned if you like but I can’t entertain it.

I was now scared to see what came next, this was not the attention I wanted!

I politely returned his message thanking him for his message and that honey and kisses was a little too over the top for me at this  early stage of the game.
