Today, it happened.

"You've Got Mail"

This is actually the 3rd response to my profile on a G.O.D.S. (Godly. Online. Dating. Site) The previous two rated no mention at all as one was a Nigerian email offering me ridiculous amounts of money for giving out my credit card details. As if... I might have been snared if it had been from somewhere like Madagascar but Nigeria? Will they ever learn???

The next response was from the West Indies. Now that's more like it ... Dreams of Sun, surf and cocktails on the beach... However the prospective beau was spamming the newbies on the site with an automated email selling himself as a Godly minister and inviting me to his lovely church and to check out his website. Sadly he was somewhat older than my ideal... by about 20 years... To add insult to injury I don't think he had even looked at my profile, guess he was going for the shotgun approach...

Today's offering has prospects. Right age, apparently articulate, close enough that meeting would not be complicated to arrange (in the future...) and far enough away that we aren't going to bump into each other on the street! Nothing startling about the correspondence but seems like an interesting addition to the day's goings on...

As usual, will let you know if anything develops!
