So I got this email today from a complete stranger I have never seen before. It's not like we have ever spoken or have any kind of history to where we joke around or banter back and forth.


"don't u think u are too old to consider yourself quirky. That type of thing is cute when u are young, but u are 37 years old and your biological clock is running out, if not stopped already. you seem like the type who prefers men much younger than your age, maybe even men that are actually young boys. Wait a minute...come to think of it you are a teacher."


So I was a little offended, and I replied with the following:

"Uh...thank you? Not sure what you were trying to accomplish with your email...was your goal to insult me?

I had no idea that quirkiness had an age limit. So kind of you to enlighten me."


Then he replies thusly:

"are u sure you are a teacher? not very good in interpreting dialogue"


Pray tell me...was there ANY other way to interpret what he said? I thought he came across as a total wanker!

Wanker seems like a fitting term.

I would feel insulted too!

silly kids

Sounds to me like a cretin trying to get a rise out of you. Not worth your time.

One thing I've learned is that the world is full of idiots, and they are all either on dating sites or driving the car in front of me.

I'm sorry.. I promise I won't send you anymore emails, Teacher.

Are you thinking of that Van Halen song also...

Did somebody say something?

(Wanker is blocked)

Smack him with a ruler & be done with it!

Tell him he has a small ineffective penis, bad breath, no education past the fifth grade and should not be trying to communicate with a higher species with such small words. Knuckle draggers like you belong in a forest somewhere away from the rest of us non-knuckle draggers.

Also include his acne and lack of bathing also are very offensive.


That should get a rise out of him instead!

I remember being HOT for my son's grade 3 teacher...


Unfortunately my son told him I thought he was HOT!!

Wow, any guy who has the audacity to say something like that to someone he doesnt know will be single/ miserable forever.

Responding to that comment was not even necessary. Trying to say that a personality characteristic and an age don't mix might show a lack of tolerance for self expression. Let it go.

Im wondering if this is someone who you may not have been interested in in the past, creating a new profile to be rude to you.... it's happened to me before

I don't know. I guess maybe he wanted to see if you were able to laugh at yourself.

He's still a wanker because he surely went about it in the wrong way. Do you think anyone here finds his comments humorous?

I dont seem to get those types of emails.

My emails seem to be like.......

Hi.......how are you???


or Hi!!! or





Hi!!!

I think someone like that would be too afraid to email me. Its not like I chop off mens feet.......everyday!!

Sounded like this guy needs to get a life.
Block him from your email.

I think...he prob gets off on older women liking young boys...and hoped your were going to be part of his fantasy.

You may be right one that. But as a guy like me, I find insults or rudeness as somewhat funny. If any person is insulted, then it is best to acknowledge that it isn't funny to them and not do it again.
