Man, this internet dating is depressing. I rejoined this site that banned me. I've only sent about 20 messages out. Got a couple of moderately-positive replies. One was from some crazy 18 year old who I already blocked the last time. She "liked" me again and then didn't realise that I've already spoken to her.

The other is some Chinese woman who barely speaks English.

But another depressing aspect is the unattractive women who stalk you. I mean...imagine if I did that for every woman who didn't reply. I'd have to quit my job to stalk hundreds of women full-time. If somebody doesn't "like" you back or reply to your message, just move on.

I got "liked" by some Asian woman. So far so good. But she's 34 and not particularly attractive. That's me being kind.

She says in her profile that she's a smart and nice person and I have no doubt that she is. But she's also 34 and doesn't do it for me physically.

What else...she's a Londoner. Pretty bad English for presumably a native speaker. For example, she claims to be both smart and intelligent. And kind and nice. These are synonyms.

She likes the usual stuff. Theatre, art galleries, restaurants. Going to concerts...weird. Why not "gigs" as in the British vernacular.

Used to be interested in money but not any more. Learning French. Likes yoga and meditation. A big paragraph of fruity new age stuff. Ooh, but she name checks Taoism. It's also in the same sentence as Buddhism and "Chinese philosophy" though, so kind of a jack of all trades approach. No Confucianism, at least. Confucianism is the worst Chinese religion of them all and responsible for much suffering.

Enjoys learning new recipes. Sings in a choir? Non-religious. Maybe there are non-religious choirs.

She challenges people not to judge others by their photos. It's a noble sentiment but not one generally shared by the more attractive among us. If she were more attractive, I can assure you that she would be judging the appearance of men much more harshly.

Works in finance.

Let's take a look at her questions using my backup account. Maybe she answered "I like it" on the anal sex question or something.

"More wholesome". "Less sex-driven". This isn't looking good.

Sex after six or more dates. Try anything once. Sex every other day.

That's it for sex. Rarely drinks alcohol. Wouldn't date somebody who's really quiet.

Oh, this is interesting. Would prefer dating somebody not of her own race. Why is this? Because Asian men are smaller and less masculine physical features? Guess she's somewhat superficial after all. Also, she's disgusted by the extremely obese.

So her advice about not being so superficial just applies to men. And it's because she's not particularly attractive.

Also demands a university education. That's not superficial, of course, but it is elitist. Because somebody didn't go to university whether as a result of lack of funds, lack of interest, or lack of academic ability, they're not worth your time?

Doesn't believe that men should be the head of the household. Asian women usually do. Those from Asia, at least.

Would date somebody who has children so at least she's realistic about her prospects in that sense.

That's it for the questions. It's sad. There's a lot of people out there like this. Lonely, mid-30s, desperately looking for somebody.

I'm sure she could find somebody if she lowered her standards. Try a big fat Asian guy who never went to university. Why not? They're people too. They have value.

I wonder why people answer these sex questions, by the way. I never do. What if a co-worker or something saw your profile. I don't want them knowing how often I masturbate or if I enjoy biting or taking part in master/slave scenarios. I mean, I don't like those last two things but even the fact that I'd answer such questions isn't something I'd want my co-workers knowing.
