In this day and age, just about everyone who has been single in the last five years has used a dating app or met someone they think is hot on Facebook. It's such a convenience to able to get on your phone and swipe left or right and decide if you find someone attractive or not. Long gone are the days of being pursued by a man and him asking your fathers permission to court you, we now live in the time of a guy sliding in your DM's and asking for your snapchat name, shawty.
Online dating has made it especially easy to determine who you don't ever want coming within a fifty feet radius of you. In my opinion the absolute worst guys are the "send me a pic" guys. They are usually extremely boring and relentless. Their conversation contains absolutely no substance and they continually message you instead of taking a subtle hint, which usually results in them getting upset.
Which brings me to crappy online guy number two, he is the guy that messages you and lets you know how gorgeous and perfect you are immediately without any previous interaction with you. Him and "send me a pic" guys are at times interchangeable. They try to pressure sex on you and when you deny them romantically they result to calling you names. Completely ignoring the fact that literally minutes prior they thought you were hot and wanted to sleep with you. Stay FAR away from these guys. They are genuine basket cases.
Last but not least goes to the guy that type like it's 2007 and we're on Myspace. Scene is dead. Not even Oli Sykes looks like Oli Sykes anymore. "Hey x) how are you???!! ;0 ;) :) x) xDDDDD!^$~~." Seriously, I take back what I said about "send me a pic" guy being the worst. These dudes are the cherry on top of the douche frosted egomaniac cake. They tend to have catch phrases and sayings such as "Rawr means I love you in dinosaur" and "so fucking metal". They listen to music like Blood on The Dance Floor and they sleep in their moms basement 9 times out of 10.
Just a small disclaimer: Don't get upset at my article if you stumble upon this and any of it happens to pertain to you or rub you the wrong way. It's all in good fun. I'm obviously just as pathetic as these guys for being on a dating website at the ripe age of 21 anyway. I'm not expecting to find the best quality guys on the internet. I just like sharing my thoughts on the entire dating process. Once again, no hard feelings to anyone. If you do any of these things and it works for you, then keep on, pimpin'. It's just not for me, personally, and these are the guys I avoid like full priced clothes.
