A strange thing happened on here a couple of days ago. (And yes, I do know that strange things happen here every day.)

A new member messaged me, and started a private conversation. He then went on to say some really flattering things, about how brilliant my posts were, how insightful my comments and how witty my humour. ( Yes I know. If it sounds too good to be true, it probably isn't. ) Then he wrote. " So how come a nice lady like you is still single then ?"

So did he not read my profile where it quite clearly says both 'male' and "Here for the community." And I am sure he was not gay, just hasty. Now it seems that he has disappeared and his messages have gone. So I wonder, was he kicked off, or did he realize his mistake, get embarrassed and then deleted his account. And if so, is it not sad that he had such a fragile ego, I would have been quite happy to share a laugh with him when pointing out his mistake.

Pleased to say that you "ladies" may have been spared a fragile narcissist, but on the other hand his flattery was really very good, made you feel quite appreciated.

Do you think that I should change my profile picture, the portrait is of me at twelve years old, I was a pretty boy, though sadly aged very badly ?
