I was recently divorced and lonely, so I decided to check out some guys on the Internet. After going through numerous jerks and nerds, I found one that I thought I might be compatible with. He was very handsome, tall, and had a wonderful sense of humor. We talked on the phone a few times and decided to meet at a local restaurant. When I arrived, I looked everywhere for the guy in the picture he had sent me, but I couldn't find him. Finally this very short character with a strange resemblance to Howdy Doody came up to me and said, "Hi, are you Sharon?" I was furious. He was a total liar. This was definitely not how he had described himself. Then I felt like I was being shallow and decided to give him a chance. So we went into the restaurant and were seated. He then proceeded to tell me how he had done many voices for various cartoons. The worst part was that all he did throughout dinner was speak in extremely loud cartoon voices--loud enough for the whole restaurant to continuously stare at us the entire night. Needless to say, there wasn't a second date. -- Sharon, 39
