OkCupid - A Sign of Insanity

Filling out a profile on a dating app is very important to most people. You can't just have one photo or no photo along with no info. That is completely and totally sketch. It does not make me want to find out more about you. Instead is does the opposite, it makes me want to completely avoid you. The profiles are pretty easy to fill out on most dating apps with super easy and quick questions. They can be filled out when you first sign up and then you don't have to worry about it again. Today we find someone with their profile not filled out might be insane from Sarah.

We are going to call this guy Brad just for the sake of this post. I don't know what kind of dedication he has to message once in September and then once again in October with the same message as if that is going to elicit a response. If the first message doesn't work try something different. That doesn't seem too hard now does it? Apparently for Brad it is.

I think Sarah has the right approach in telling him that she isn't comfortable talking to people who don't have their profile filled out. It isn't that hard of a request to fulfill. I can't imagine that Brad has had a lot of luck with matching and having conversation with anyone considering he has nothing filled out. It makes me think of talking to a brick wall because there is literally nothing to see and nothing going on.

There might be some weird thrill or excitement in talking to a guy you know literally nothing about and haven't seen before and I just don't know it. However that isn't for me. Especially if it got to the point of meeting up. Can you imagine meeting up with someone you've never even seen before? That would be terrifying. Also it is ten times easier to have a conversation with someone when you know you have some things in common. It helps break the ice and lead to more thoughtful conversations.

The way Brad responds makes him sound like a bot almost. I am a real person is super reassuring Brad. If anything you could at least offer to fill out your profile or just take the hint and leave Sarah alone. Instead there's nothing until he messages again in December and then April. Honestly Brad what are you hoping to accomplish? I am baffled by the way that he is approaching this conversation. The one time he got a response from Sarah he did nothing with it.

Isn't the saying that the sign of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a different result? I think if anything this shows that Brad is a bit insane. Maybe he is a broken bot and we just don't know it. What do you all think of Brad? Is he going to have any luck finding someone? Let me know in the comments below. (:
