Bona Fide Suitors

There are a lot of goofuses and downright nightmares in the online dating world. More Men seeking Women that we can count treat internet dating as if it were a KFC drive thru.

But rather than lament the existence of these losers, I've decided to celebrate the winners. Inspired by from Holly Hunter's character in O Brother Where Art Thou? I call them bona fide suitors. I might not want to date these guys. They may be full of shit, but their profiles are bona fide.

The first Bona Fide Suitor Prize goes to CourageousCat on okcupid, even though he included is income in is profile (I find that distasteful.). Here's a man who can express himself verbally. Here's a man who managed to find a decent photograph of himself. Here's a man who bothered to fill out the questionnaire. (Yes, guys. Showing up is half the battle.) He manages to share is concerns for the world without whining or devolving into negativism. He displays his intelligence with good humor.

My helmet is off to you, CourageousCat.
