If you know what a &#8220;Guido&#8221; is, I have just learned, they don&#8217;t just come in Italian&#8230;.they come in MEXICAN TOO!<\/p>\n<p>I got a match.com email from a guy who had one picture. It was so far away, I couldn&#8217;t tell what he looked like. We had exchanged a few emails, so I told him to just send me a few more pics.<\/p>\n<p>When I got his pictures, he also accompanied it with this:<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It&#8217;s kind of a busy time for me because I&#8217;m opening up a new love coaching business here in town.  My first event is <span id=\"lw_1264733825_0\" class=\"yshortcuts\" style=\"border-bottom: 1px dashed #0066cc; background: transparent none repeat scroll 0% 0%; cursor: pointer;\">on Feb. 13th<\/span> and I&#8217;m hosting a <span id=\"lw_1264733825_1\" class=\"yshortcuts\" style=\"background: transparent none repeat scroll 0% 0%; cursor: pointer;\">Masquerade Ball<\/span> for the hottest singles in town.  Should be a lot of fun and a great way to get my name out there.  I&#8217;m pretty excited.  \ud83d\ude42  Then after that I&#8217;m headed to <span id=\"lw_1264733825_2\" class=\"yshortcuts\">Vancouver<\/span> for the <span id=\"lw_1264733825_3\" class=\"yshortcuts\">Olympics<\/span>.  So that should be a blast <span id=\"lw_1264733825_4\" class=\"yshortcuts\">making new friends<\/span> from around the world as well! &#8221;<\/p>\n<p>I saw his pictures and the first one he sent was of him &#8220;flexing&#8221; in the mirror. You know, that cheesy camera phone shot. What.the.fuck. I&#8217;m shaking my head as I proceed to the other two.  Another in the mirror camera shot. This time he&#8217;s pointing at himself. Kind of like The Uncle Sam &#8220;I want you&#8221; photo&#8230;except, no, wrong, I did not want him&#8230;at all. Especially when I got a close up shot of his hair. That thing, must take, at least a gallon Tres Flores or Aqua Net. Bad call dude&#8230;..oh and get this, he&#8217;s got streaks, like highlights in his hair. This dude is high maintenance, and I&#8217;m not about to start dating a guy who is going to be asking ME to drive him like Miss Daisy to the hair salon on Saturday. I was afraid to look further&#8230;..<\/p>\n<p>Another pic&#8230;of him with Chuck E. Cheese. Wow, not even smiling there! Dude, YOU ARE AT FUCKING CHUCK E. CHEESE! Who tries to look hardcore at a place like that!?<\/p>\n<p>I was waiting for him to send me some photos of him fist pumpin to some house music.<\/p>\n<p>I normally wouldn&#8217;t have responded with anything but the guy is going to be charging people for dating advice!!<\/p>\n<p>Also, his email had his name as &#8220;False&#8221; as in, I got the impression he was sending it from some fake account. Real slick dude.<\/p>\n<p>So this is what I responded with&#8230;.consider it a public service:<\/p>\n<p>Thanks for the email. Ok, so you are opening up a love coaching business? How did you fall into that? Just curious.<\/p>\n<p>I would like to tell you&#8230;I know it&#8217;s not for me to say anything and I would like to say up front, I am in no way trying to offend you-<\/p>\n<p>I am by no means a dating expert but I can I tell you, I talk to A LOT of  women, and the pics you sent me seem like you are a little into yourself. Most women don&#8217;t appreciate the whole &#8220;flexing&#8221; pose or pictures where it&#8217;s just too cool to smile. It goes right along with the guys who pose next to their car etc.<\/p>\n<p>I like a humble down to Earth kind of guy who smiles in his pictures and unfortunately from your pictures, it doesn&#8217;t look like you are.<\/p>\n<p>I just thought you should know because you are going to start a love coaching biz and since online dating is such a big part of dating period now a days, pictures speak volumes. Your clients are going to attract certain women just by the pictures they post.<\/p>\n<p>Like the girls who post EVERY single picture of themselves at the club, they attract guys who like club rats. I am not that girl, don&#8217;t care what car you drive or how many days you are the gym. It&#8217;s so easy to work on the outside. I appreciate a nice body but that alone wont even get you to date number one with me.<\/p>\n<p>Oh and the fake email account, you might want to change your name to something other than &#8220;false&#8221; as I can clearly see that it&#8217;s not your real account. That probably won&#8217;t go down well, with most other women either.<br \/>\nTake care and lay off the hair gel.<\/p>\n<p>Check out this video to get an almost exact idea of what this guy looked like \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=-HOUGDOV4x8\">Mac Lethal-Lookin Bro<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I don&#8217;t date guys prettier than me&#8230;period.
