Um..please interpret

I had my first online date on Tuesday and there was zero connection. I figured I would just never hear from him and then I just got this text:

"Hey Emma, good times the other night. In person, your personality is a little different from what I had thought on the phone. Still not 100% sure your hair is that naturally blond though. Talk soon!"

Ummmmm what the heck does this mean? I dont plan on seeing him again and letting him know that but I dont get this....

[doriswe]

lmfao....I read that as you should next his ass!

[stephbfan]

hmmm maybe he was joking?

I get why you think its confusing!!!

I have said to several people that they have different personality on the phone and in person.

I don't think I would go out with him again but I would be too tempted to text him back and ask him what he means.

Well, *you* felt zero connection. Clearly, you're still on his roster.

Aside from that, what aren't you getting?

Text fail. And I'm still not clear if the personality thing is a good or bad thing. I guess it's good? Weirdo I wouldn't text him back.

[emma245]

Im not getting the "your personality is different" thing.

[charitylynne79]

Yeah he's still thinking about you. But you seem to have felt the zero connection so it's time for the next one in line.

You came across as different over the phone then you did in person. How, I have no idea, since I wasn't there and haven't talked on the phone with you. If I had to guess, though, I'd say that once you got there and realized you weren't into him, you got more reserved than you were on the phone, before you knew you guys weren't a match.

And he's probably just hoping you get shy, or something.

Again, this might not be it at all. Just a guess.

Wow...that is really weird. And it's not very open ended in case you had wanted to respond to him (I mean, you totally could but what are you supposed to say to that?)

I would just leave it as is since you're not interested in going out with him again anyways!

On a related note, what's up with TV guy?

[jojoandleo]

Uhhhh, with the "still not sure your hair is 100% naturally blond" thing is he calling you a liar? DId you tell him you are a natural blond? That part is so odd! I guess I don't see why he would say "your personality is different, and I doubt you are a natural blond, talk to you soon!" It seems almost like he is insulting you and then wanting to stay in contact? I would either ignore, or send a "not interested, but thanks!" text.

Here's my interpretation:

"Hey Emma, I'm a socially inept guy that says passive-aggressive things in texts because this is how I get women to respond to me. Talk soon!"

Giggle to yourself and delete.

Hilarious!

I remember at some point him asking me about it because he was talking about OC stereotypes. I am a natural blonde so I dont get it.......this is why online dating scares me!!!

[emma245]

PS Redredwine I am hooking up with TV guy next week. We still text a lot but I definitely dont want to date him and will be just hooking up with him......

[turtle1120]

My interpretation is the guy is weird. Next! I'd ignore the text since it really doesn't warrant a response, and hope he goes away.

Have fun!!
