I may have the unpopular opinion here, but I really dislike receiving 'blast emails.' You know, the cute or inspirational messages that someone decided to send to 30 of their closest friends. And you.

So here's the thing; I have a first date with a long-distance eH match tomorrow. Looking forward to it. Today he sent me an email with a funny video of dancing women who are very acrobatic and ... limber. Um, okay. In the header I could see that he also sent it to 15-20 other email addresses with names included. All female names.

I laughed when I saw all those other women's names -- I'm not reading that much into it. But ... isn't that a little odd? Is it me? Again?

I agree.

I usually have to instruct each new partner not to send garbage e-mails.

Frustrating.

People that send me forward spam get black-listed. I don't care if it's my mother. They get two warnings (requests), then done.

I accidently one-starred you! Didn't mean to do that, Nanette.

Yes, he said something about 'chemistry juices' in a ... text or phone call I think it was...
