16: The Perils of Internet Dating (or What I Have Learnt!)


Just because a man gives you flowers,
doesn’t mean you’re going to swoon.
It’s really not that stylish,
wrapped in a yoghurt pot
and the swarm of ants released at home,
was an experience I’d rather not..!

Just because they post a good photo,
doesn’t mean they’ll be well groomed.
Those ugly stains on his shirt,
I really can’t admire.
Pay attention to your grooming sir,
if you want me to desire!

Just because he tells you things,
your ears long to hear,
don’t forget that he may lie.
Check him out before you date.
It’s not stalking to do your homework.
Look him up, before it’s too late!

Just because one man walks away,
when he discovers you like science,
don’t run and hide those books you love,
the ones on quantum physics.
Be proud of who you are,
‘til you meet the man who gets this!

Just because the first is dull
and the second older than his photo,
doesn’t mean you should give up,
wait and see what’s ‘round the corner.
Number three, might be your dream,
just what the doctor ordered!
