I hope that everyone had a great week. I have been writing this blog for days! You will all be happy to hear that since the last blog I have been appropriately dressed for work! haha Since this coming week is supposed to be so cold we can wear jeans and college shirts all week. Don’t worry I won’t be wearing that TCU shirt! haha I spent today just kinda hanging out. I got a hair cut, I found 2 geocaches that I had looked for and hadn’t found before. I watched some tv, I drew in my wreck this journal. I wanted to keep y’all updated on how online dating was going!
So just a quick story about my classroom before we get into the online dating situation. If you don’t know I do free choice seating in my classroom. I also do flex seating where I offer different types of chairs that the students can use. I have collected chairs from different places. I have a chair that someone rescued from the side of the road for me. He power washed it and I reupholstered it. Well let’s just say there was obviously a reason that this chair was on the curb. This screw fell out of it and this happened! Don’t worry the child sitting the chair said that she could hear and feel it going so when it did crash to the ground she was ready for it! So needless to say we are down a chair! Don’t worry no 6th graders were harmed! We quickly threw the chair away and moved on! haha
Ok so on to the online dating. It is going… so well! (That was sarcasm in case you missed it!) I am trying a few different sites so it is not just the one. On Bumble their whole thing is that the women make the first move. So my conversation starter is that I teach middle school and for them to give me their best middle school appropriate joke. I am asking for some pretty minimal effort here. I mean if you don’t have one maybe google one? I mean come on… There are some of the responses I have received.
So as you can tell guys are super on top of it! Then there are times that we get past that for whatever reason and then we just have super strange conversation.
I did not check to see if telegraph is an app or something but either way… REALLY?!?! The religious baggage guy sid on his profile that he grew up Mormon and left the church and basically just wants to have random sex for a few years. That Chris guy and his question marks like if I was just going to be like yup in the past 19 minutes I changed my mind!
So yeah! That is how that is going! haha I have also realized that I just don’t have the patience for it. I have been single for a long time and I need a guy that not only sees and recognizes that but understands that I am looking for someone that makes being with them better than being single. Really it’s not about the joke, I have heard or told most of them, but it really is about the effort. If they aren’t willing to put in that minimal effort to start a conversation then what else will they not put the effort in for?
Well I really should be working on some homework or something! I hope that everyone has a good rest of your weekend!
Here are a few jokes that guys did start with:
Why didn’t the toilet paper cross the road? It got stuck in the crack!
What do you get when you cross an elephant and a rhino? Elephino
What is the easiest way to get straight As? Use a ruler!
