Soy un perdedor I'm a loser baby so why don't you kill me? --Beck, "Loser"
I had my first unsolicited email in months yesterday. I was so excited. The woman said she thought I sounded fun. Cool! I AM fun! She's so perceptive! Then I read her profile.
See, this is where I explain that I have a dirty little secret or two of my own. In my profile, under "marital status", it says, "Prefer not to say". Now, when I see that in that block, I assume that the person's married and just doesn't want to spell it out for everyone. I've gone back and forth on this, thinking it's better to come right out and say it, maybe it's better not to say, I don't know. Really, I probably should change it to Married (because if you haven't figured it out by now, I am married), but I just haven't gotten my brain and my hand to hook up and do it yet. So I'm not, not listed as single. I prefer to think of it as listing myself as... discreet.
OK. So back to the story. I write back to this young lady and let her know that I might enjoy having a cup of coffee sometime, but that there might be a problem. She says in her profile that she doesn't condone cheating, and that she won't meet married or attached men. So I come clean. Right away, before either of us have wasted any time getting to know each other.
About five minutes later, I get a very terse email in return:
"forget it, you are a loser. cheaters are just huge losers"
I didn't even merit capitals or punctuation. That's how big a loser I am, people. She won't even waste a period on my sorry ass. Oh, well. At least all of you still love me, right? Oh, wait! Where are you going?
Crap.

So here's the thing. I'm a little confused by people on this site who are looking for men who are "well-endowed". I ran across an ad today where the woman is looking for a man who is not just "well-endowed", but that is WELL-ENDOWED. Hm. Nice emphasis. Now, obviously I know what the expression means, but what I don't know is what these women are looking for.
Well-endowed is such a vague expression, you know? With the woman I referenced earlier, it occurred to me that she's not really going to know how well-endowed the guy is until she actually passes the point where it's easy to extract herself from the situation. But then again, from the profile, pointing and laughing might not have been out of the question.
I think this is the point at which I should say that I stand by my profile's description of Average/Thick. That's all I'm going to say about that.
But what does that even mean? And the body type thing. Don't even get me started. I list myself as Average, but I run 4-5 times a week and my legs are pretty muscular. Does that mean I should switch to Athletic? On the other hand, once I turned 30, it seemed that all of the fat in my body migrated to the center of my body, and I've actually lost 15 pounds in the last month with a certain healthy online weight-loss plan that shall remain nameless. Should I list myself as Ample, or even a little extra padding?
All this vagueness. I'm not endorsing a plan where we all have to disclose height and weight to the world, or where a photo is necessary to prove that what we have in our pants or bras is what we say (I have no naked pics in my profile, nor do I plan to add any), but I'm just... ranting in the wind, I guess.
What does well-endowed mean to you?

How many people out there are completely honest when it comes to writing their profiles? I feel like I've been lucky so far, finding people who have more or less represented themselves in a relatively truthful way, but I've heard so many stories now about people who really misrepresent themselves that it really can kind of make you nervous, you know? And I'm a pretty trusting guy!
It's interesting, though, because just the fact of being on this site is such a dishonest thing for some people. Many of us are not being truthful to partners or loved ones (or not-so-loved ones, as the case may be) about what we're doing here. I'm certainly not going to judge them, since I'm one of those people, and I certainly have some disappointment with myself about that. But I'm here nonetheless, and I'm doing my best to be honest and forthcoming about who I am. It doesn't seem to be helping, but I'm going to continue that way, just because that's who I am. And who I am has gotten me some friends and experiences that I won't be forgetting anytime soon.
So here's the question, for those of you who happen across this page in a revelatory sort of mood: What's your dirty little secret?

So I've finally decided to begin blogging. I've been reading blogs for years (back when they were called "online journals"), and have always thought about starting one of my own. Not that I think anyone's actually going to read this or anything-- I'm optimistic, glass-half-full, whatever-- but I'm not deluded. I'm a straight guy, like roughly 80% of the people on Local Adult Companion. But if you stumbled onto this, welcome. Enjoy.
