I was going back through old facebook messages and I came across this one that I received a few years ago in my inbox:
U.r. beautiful and i luv the glass. u give me hope that maybe there stile innacent in this world. that 4 add me as a friend.but anyway was ur new years. do u have a resalotion.
I think what he meant to say was this: You are beautiful and I love the glasses. You give me hope that maybe there is still innocence in this world. Thanks for adding me as a friend. But anyway, how was your New Year's (Eve/Day)? Do you have a resolution?
Needless to say, I spurned his advances and did not respond. This was not the first message he had sent, and I was polite in my replies before but was tired of keeping the conversation going. I always accept friend requests because I think it's mean not to. And unless someone is ultra creepy, I won't un-friend them. And I'm always very nice if men send me messages, but I make it clear that, though I am flattered that they are interested in me, that I am in a long-term, committed relationship. If they persist (like this guy did), I just start to ignore subsequent messages. But even if I was single, the spelling carnage would be more than enough to keep me from writing him back.
Spitting game on facebook is NOT what's up. Especially if said game needs translating.
