Ouch. That is one chick that I wouldn't spend 5 minutes with. She is a "changer" ... one of the types that lures you in initially by pretending to be something you would like, then once you are hooked, slowly manipulates you into becoming more what she had in mind originally. Those relationships have a 5 or 6 month shelf-life, max. Much less, if you are lucky.

Beyond that, the whole online dating thing has seemed to me, from day one, to be a refuge for desperate losers with unrealistic expectations.

Maybe its just where I live, but finding women to date in Atlanta is pretty easy to do. And if your expectations are realistic, meaning that you're not constantly on the prowl for a life commitment, expecting everyone you date to potentially be marriage material, then it can be enjoyable almost all the time. Have drinks, go to a play, or a movie, have fun, but don't make every date like a damn job interview.

What is it with women who want a man to change? Honestly, I don't get it.
