Would you date [her](http://members.aol.com/_ht_a/mary1777/needs.htm)? I wouldn’t. I can’t even read her page without wondering, “Just who does she think she is?” ---

That was a joke, right? If you read the whole first page, you did a whole lot better than me. Where did you find this nut, anyway? But I still think it has to be a joke. Or maybe performance art. ---

I’m a woman also, and I can’t help but think this site must be a joke. I didn’t have the patience to read through most of it, because I was rather bored. I’d be highly surprised if she got any takers among the living and breathing (I’m feminist but she’s weird). ---

um…PSYCHO! But at least honest about what she wants. But like she said, if the site is still up, she must not be getting any takers. Please, please, pretty please submit to Weird Earls! ---

Okay, I had to go back and read more. It’s like a car wreck…can’t help myself. I esp. like this part: > [@](#): > > Even though this is a firm date, I’m going to make three calls to you, just because they help you, especially in knowing whether or not to wash your hair. The first call will be the morning of our date, as soon as I get up. The second call will be when I’m leaving to come to see you; that is, when I’m just going out the door. The third call will be when I arrive at the \_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_, which is very close to your home. “In knowing whether or not to wash your hair” WTF is that supposed to mean? I mean couldn’t she figure it out herself? Apparently she has two daughters, if this is a real woman, I see much therapy in their futures. ---

Oops forgot to say (for those too smart to waste time going to the site) that the above quote is part of a script she has written for potential dates to read to her, upon making a date. ---

It seems she’s serious. If you check out her [e-mail page](http://members.aol.com/_ht_a/mary1777/emailmixed.htm) you’ll find that she’s posted many, many ads on AOL’s singles sites. I found her on [http://www.memepool.com](http://www.memepool.com) ---

My overriding impression is, If she has time to crank out this website and to be constantly available for calls, why doesn’t she have a job? Then I saw, “I expect you to bring me a gift.” Ah, I see she _does_ have a job. Yeah, Suo, she seems terribly full of herself. “_Letting him get to know me is one of my very favorite things to do._” How can a guy possibly resist this? “_I ask any man who wants to meet me to give me a small gift when we meet in person. I do this for two reasons—first, I don’t work and I could use a little extra help right now, and second, then a man can demonstrate whether or not he has a problem with helping a lady in this way or whether he has a problem with a lady who would ask for such help. I’m not looking for a man for money; I’m looking for a man for the love that we’ll eventually share._” When someone like this says it’s not about the money, it’s about the money. All I wanna know is, WHERE THE FUCK DO I SIGN UP? :rolleyes: ---

Well, she’s fairly physically attractive. She claims she doesn’t want a man for his money, but for the love they will share. But she wants to be taken care of, and 48 and doesn’t work, what the hell does she do for money? Live off her parents? Alimony? Her kids? Also, it’s obvious she doesn’t want to get to know a man, if all the talking he’s going to be doing is pre-scripted by her. Recite the creed, and I’ll go out with you. Huh? I think she’s a wacko. ---

I didn’t read the whole page. My goodness it was long! I got hung up where she started saying exactly what the man was suppose to say when he called. I did scroll all the way down to the bottom thought to read the FAQ. My favorite was this: > [@](#): > > Are your daughters available for dating? > > No, they’re not. One is married, and the other one is in a relationship, but even if they were unattached, I wouldn’t feel comfortable referring anyone to them in this context. I hope that you find someone just right for you. The idea that she had been asked that frequently made me laugh. ---

I thought the scripts had a real legal feel to them. As if they were there so that she could point to them and say that any guy who went on a date with her and gave her x dollars knew exactly what he was getting into, and that she hadn’t given him any expectations to the contrary and hence didn’t have to give the money back. Of course, I can’t imagine she’d get many takers after looking at her webpage. Scary. ---

Why didn’t she just say male doormat wanted, apply within? Think of the bandwidth she could have saved… (OK, maybe male doormat wanted who doesn’t bore easily, apply within) :rolleyes: ---

Other highlights include her desire to remain celibate prior to marriage, which is fine if that’s important to you, but this is celibacy to the extent of no hand-holding, no kissing, absolutely NO physical contact at all prior to marriage. Then there’s the oft stated requirement of totally foregoing one’s own desires if they at all conflict with hers. All actions and decisions must be in order to make her happy. While she would like her special man to occasionally take charge, in any conflict, her decision will be defferred to. I suppose I can admire her knowing and stating exactly what she wants, but what she wants seems selfish to the extent whereby it alienates any and every potential partner. Fortunately, she understands that, and understands as well that she’s unlikely to find an SO. Truly an interesting eccentric. From a distance, anyways. ---

From her page: \*In the four-month period ending mid-September 2000, exactly one-third of the total dates that I made resulted in my being stood up. \* Well, isn’t that a shocker? :rolleyes: ---

Ok she’s desperate and I don’t think I need desperate and I’d look funny as a doormat. Probably not even her real pic either. Maybe we should e-mail her this link so she knows how stupid she really is. ---
