But, I can't fit all my BS in an ad that is 20 words or less.... But, at least my pic is from last Sunday...so it really is me. Oversell myself? Believe it or not (I know that you probably won't), I am actually toned down on the pc compared to actual real life. If I was on here with no mods to answer to, I am sure many would think that I was just a fake profile. Don't believe him people! I have had the pleasure of spending "real life" time with this man...& other than the constant...uh...priapism (sp?) hehehehe...he's a perfect host & gentleman... Priapism is a potentially harmful and painful medical condition in which the erect penis does not return to its flaccid state, despite the absence of both physical and psychological stimulation, within four hours. Priapism is considered a medical emergency, which should receive proper treatment by a qualified medical practitioner. The name comes from the Greek god Priapus, referring to the myth that he was punished by the other gods for attempting to rape a goddess, by being given a huge, but useless, set of wooden genitals. -wiki |

I think many people try to present themselves as "who the want to be". They have this "persona" that they create and have fallen for it themselves and don't realize what they project anymore.
I know that personally I tend to down sell myself online. But, what you see on here is for the most past what you get. I'm sometimes b!tchy, moody, a smartass, sometimes witty, sometimes quiet, all the time opinionated. When I care about something or someone it is with all I have and sometimes more than I should. There is good, there is bad, there is middle of the road. Take it, leave it... oh well. |

Priapism....hmmmmnnnn....I never knew what to call that. But, it is harmful after four hours? But, I have had it since I was 11.
Yes Que....I know "The Look" you just gave me. That is why I never say "Crazy b*tch" when you are in killing distance....I now only do it from the safety of having 156 miles between us. |

I think people just try to put their best face forward in hopes to attract someones attention. Well then there are some that outright lie of course, but I don't think that's the norm.
One other thing to think about. It's possible the person isn't selling a false ad, maybe it's us who choose to see what we want to see, rather than what actually is. |

I think we all oversell ourselves in one way or another. Who wants to say "hey, oh by the way I have a gambling and porn addiction problem" Seriously though our flaws are what make us who we are. How boring would we be if we didn't have any problems.

online... because they don't have to be accountable for their claims????? I have found some guys whose online personas range into their own private fantasy realm. I think it is a basic personal insecurity for the most part. I feel a person should be honest and up front to avoid false impressions. |
