Countryboy!

In honor of Valentine's day, a post about my most recent match.com communication. Tell me this- how do the crazies find me? 
(And to my favorite step-cousin three times removed: YES- they find me, I don't find them. 
p.s. Happy Anniversary!)

Who does this happen to? This is the third email I received from CountryBoy*. What preceded this email was pretty normal- "what do you do for fun?"; "where do you live?", etc. And THEN he hits me with this. And this is his email, word for word, with no changes except for the name. For that, I gave you a nice variation on his match.com screenname. (Notice the awesome spelling/grammar below.)

heyy

yea busy is always good im kinda slow right now cuz grass season aint here i did do plumbing but got laid off from that not to long ago. hopefully my business will pick up soon though. theres something i have to tell u about me an if you dont wanna talk to me anymore i understand . but im bipolar an on meds an see a doctor. i recently got on disabilty only stayin on a about 6 months. im goin to school in the fall for horticulture. an gonna work my business an another landscape business in town. i eventually want to work for uva grounds department or jmu grounds. My family is great im vary close to them an we get along good. i see your a preachers daughter do you go to church? i dont go much .. so do you have your own place? im workin on mine... what type of work do you do? well if you still wanna talk to me after readin all this get back in touch have a good evening
countryboy*!

Because I always put an exclamation point at the end of my name. Don't you?

After no response from me, (honestly- what do you say to that?!?) I got another message:

not intarested?

Yep, 2 days later, one more. (at 2:41am, I might add.)

its a damn shame ur gonna judge someone on if they have a disorder im a really nice guy an have alot to offer please talk to me rachael

Here's the thing. If you are going to call me out, at least spell my name right. Come on, Countryboy*. How do I tell him that the poor spelling and grammar is really the issue here? Anyone who types "aint" and can't spell the word "and"? Deuces.


Happy Valentine's Day! (Or Singles' Awareness Day, as I like to call it.) Please share your crazy Valentine's day stories with me if you have them!

  1. How could you not email him back??

    "Dear Countryboy,
    I don't discriminate. I regulate.
    Thank you very much.
    Sincerely,
    Not Rachael."

    You can use that if you want. I won't be mad.

    PS. Thanks for the shout-out, but I think you must have special pheromones or something. And by special, I mean, the kind that crazy people like.
