Is he for real?

I have just spent several minutes looking at someone's eHarmony profile trying to work out whether he is being serious or not. I am sure the look of puzzlement/disbelief/confusion/amusement on my face was an absolute picture.

This guy has sent me questions so I checked his profile. His "name one thing you are passionate about" lists numerous items (not a problem, most people give more than one), one of which was he is an unpublished writer with a fear of being ostracised by society if he writes his thoughts down. That sounded a little odd but we all have our quirks so I read on.

The most influential person in his life has been himself. Ok, so he's very self confident.

Next, the one thing he wishes people would notice about him. He does start by acknowledging that it will sound like he is boasting, then goes on to say that women always fail to see that he is far better than most men. He says that they don't see that they will have a much better family life with him and that they fail to see beyond his racial stereotype. And almost as an afterthought he states that he comes from a superior breed (naturally selected) and hence "our offspring will do very well".

I stopped reading at this point to have a bit of a "What??? Did he really write that???" moment. I then carried on and wasn't surprised to find the rest of his profile in the same vein.

The things he can't live without included food and sex and sharing his life with someone deserving. So should I feel privileged that he seems to think I might be deserving???

The first things people notice about him are his public school accent and his confidence and assertiveness. Well, yes, I can imagine his confidence would be noticeable to say the least.

His answer to some additional information he wants matches to know declares that she shouldn't make any assumptions about him until we have meet at least twice, and concludes with "Its an awful shame on all you good women out there that i am still single".

Oh, and he also spelt sharing as shearing and achieving as archiving. Which was obviously the dealbreaker for me and the only reason I just pressed archive this match despite him being so much better than most men ;)

I have concluded that he has either joined up to have a laugh, or there really are men out there who think like that. Luckily I am communicating with a couple of fairly normal sounding guys so it's not a complete disaster on the online dating front, but more of that once I've recovered from reading all about Mr Super Confident.
