Dating Chronicles: Are you looking for Prince Charming on this network?
I’m toying around with the idea of deleting my account with OkCupid. I’ve been on there for awhile and I’ve met a few decent guys on there, but I feel like the dynamic has changed in the recent months. Either the guys go straight for the physical stuff, they don’t make it past the initial grammar check, or I just don’t find their profile appealing. I will check out a guy’s profile before replying to their messages and sometimes when I don’t reply I get messages like “you don’t like what you see?” or “so you’re just not going to respond?”. No sir, I’m not. A couple of times I had some persistent guys who I had to write back and let them know “No, I don’t find anything appealing about you or your profile”. Too rude?
Then come the guys who start off great and then turn douche-y. Exhibit A: details have been removed to protect the (not so) innocent.
See, he starts off all sweet. Then it gets worse.
Umm sir, if I wanted you to call me Jazmyn I would’ve given you that name. Sheesh!
“Yeah, I’m one of those gym rats you hear”? Umm… Then assuming that I only cook ramen noodles?! Sir!! You just blew whatever chance you had.
Prince Charming?! I can’t.
I just stopped talking to him after that. Ugh! Please tell me it gets better.

Awww, Jaz! I think he's a little bad at conversations, but not a bad person. I kind of liked his attempt at flirtation!
