More online dating app travails

First, the guy who types "Liberian" instead of "Librarian," and then just goes with it:



Then this guy:


And my weekend wouldn't be complete without some heartbreak: I was messaging with a guy (late) Saturday night who seemed normal and pleasant, and was actually local. He started by saying "you seem fun and interesting" - the first person since Bobby who said something like this. Heady stuff. Then, the next morning, his profile and our conversation were gone (the conversation reappeared because he messaged me late one night in November, but before I could respond, his profile was gone again). He's probably some married guy who was looking to hook up. So frustrating. Why are the appealing ones either psycho or ghosts?

Yikes

I was chatting with an older woman at work and she said something about having gotten to the age where she doesn't care what people think of her. And then she said I'm lucky that I got to that point younger than she did.

Wait, what? So the people I work with think I don't give a fuck what they think of me???

That didn't end well

I took the plunge and had my 1st coffee date here in North Dakota. Not particularly surprisingly, it was all for nought. This guy was being very cute and flirty in texts prior to the meeting:


However, once we actually met, he was giving off an intense "nope" vibe and even cut the time short. 

I don't know what happened. I paid for the coffee, which may have put him off. Maybe it's all the tattoos, which are not visible in my photos on the dating site. No idea, but if he's deterred for some minor reason, good riddance.

He sent me a "thank you" text the next morning, which really threw me off. I didn't necessarily think he was trying to extend our acquaintence, however, I did wonder if his general demeanor is just very low affect, as opposed to him being uninterested. Even if that's the case, I'm not tempted to pursue him - I want someone with some zest for life, or a least a bit of energy. It really can't be all that hard to find one person who would be good company...
