I'm a bit confused by the answers my match sent me. I can usually read between the lines, but the lines are so blurry on this one.

My questions and his answers.

1. How important is chemistry to you?

E) it is important,click is great yet not required,feeling we have sparks between us now

3. When in a relationship, are you a jealous person?

E) slightly under choice one,you are so........

I'm really confused by the second answer. I am so.... what? The odd "feeling we have sparks between us now" makes me think he is expressing too much attraction. Yeah, I know, possibly reading too much into this, but his other answers kinda make me scratch my head as well. I'm going to continue on with the match, but wanted other opinions on these, too.

Wow! Replying when drunk can lead to unintended hilarity

To decode, we've got to drink as well

I'd just ignore the weird parts if everything else is fine.

Is English his second language?

No, English is not his second language. At least it isn't indicated on his profile. The lack of spaces between punctuation marks seems consistent with him, as well. No spaces on his profile.

Based on those 2 answers, it either reads like someone who is drunk, or you got a sc?mmer there.

this is why guys on here get no results. the first response is just a lame attempt at flattery and seduction. the second response is indecipherable.

don't bury it though. take this guy through to OC and see what his email is like. if nothing else, it will make great fodder for the boards!

I think he's flirting or trying to make a pass. He could be drunk, or high...

Or he passed out and his forehead hit the "....." key...

What was choice one for that question?

Keep communicating! This could be good!

Honest to God, I'd say that it's a person trying to pull a fast one on you. They don't seem to have a good grasp of the english language, and my first communication matches were people that were not who they appeared to be. They don't tell you about this, but some people mascerade as a false identity on a dating site to get people to send them money. I noticed the ones that were trying to dupe me because they had no grasp of English in their writing, only on their profiles, which someone else may have done for them. That's my 2 cents, watch out for sentences that make no sense.

HA! Bad grammar showing human indecency!

possible he is not a real person. I kinda question his photos. IDK, the sparks comment makes me more leery than anything else. I know sc*mmers use this fake chemistry or spark to lure women in.
