Testing out the online dating scene for a bit. I've been trying out a few services, none of which have really knocked my socks off. Right now, I'm trying out AmericanSingles.com. What I don't understand is why I get responses from guys all over the planet except my area. It boggles my mind.

I could go into a lengthy diatribe about people who obviously don't read profiles, but I'll spare you all. All I'm looking for is a guy who's reasonably attractive, has a few working brain cells, a j-o-b, and can write a grammatically correct sentence. Is that too much to ask?
