Oh jeepers. Thank you for gracing this Earth with your presence.
This is so bizarre. If a new person signed up to post this...they'd be crucified as entitled, selfish and plain *****y. But if they are in the Good Ol' Boys club, bad behavior is just simply encouraged. You guys are not doing "friends" any behavior by kissing their butts and telling them they are awesome. Quite frankly, you've been going running every night for a reason. And only the "weirdos" are contacting you...because that's all you attract.
This post is about as weird as they come. She's obviously not attracting them all.
To rephrase your last "he's probably the type of guy most women would love to have", to "he's probably the type of guy most women think they would love to have".
Ha ha, you're probably right about that.

This is why I hate email communication, we read thoughts,feelings and reflections into the writing but it may or may not be there.
I think that is what he was trying to say based on a couple other things I didn't post here. Still, he words things a bit odd, I think.

Instead he's sitting on his computer.
Every time I sent him a message today (about four messages spaced out over the whole day) he wrote back within a minute or two. I'd send one and get an instant response but since I was kinda busy today I didn't answer right away - but sure enough, when I did, he was right there to answer. My guess is he's writing to several different women. His last e-mail was one 4 word sentence so I didn't bother responding to that one, and won't until tomorrow night if at all. He's just not expressing any interest in getting to know me.
So far I've learned that he moved to Texas because of a girl, that he used to be in the military (fuzzy math says about 7 or 8 years) and that he's traveled a lot (mostly with the military). That's pretty much it after five e-mails from him. He hasn't asked me anything more about myself.

I think you can do better Ms. Trouble.
One problem with military men or even men in general is they look at going out with women as a war. I know that I had that mindset when I was a younger lad(military brat) and just didn't know any better. Maybe a war is not the most perfect way of saying it but they strategize it like going to battle. It's all battle planned out with ambushed, diversions, bombardments and encirclements and finally objectives.
This guy sounds like one of those paint by the numbers types and dunno it doesn't sound all that kosher to me. My instinct would say that something that awkward and halting in written communication is not likely any better in person. Sure we all make our little personal communication foibles but this is one long train of them.

I beg to differ. Seriously. I've dated a few, and am involved with one now. He is the complete opposite of what you describe. Perhaps I've been lucky, but I've only run into military men that left a good taste in my mouth (so to speak!)

I've pretty much only dated military or former military and with a couple exceptions, they were decent guys, just not right for me. Sure, there were two cheaters in the bunch, but the rest were OK.

Nope. I've offered information but he hasn't asked me to expand on it. For example when I mentioned to him that I'd been to one of the countries that he'd also been to, he didn't ask why I was there and still hasn't asked what I do for a living. Not everyone goes to Kosovo and I'd be curious if a guy said he'd been to some off the wall place, and I'd ask him why he was there and what he thought about the country, etc.
why still email the guy back in forth? he sounds like a dud
and why did you go to kosovo? at least i'm intrigued! :P

I don't think so. As soon as I see "I could literally get a date for every night of the week," the as@ would be out of my mailbox.
Yep. Even if it's true....ZERO class to say that. Immediate nix and I'm a fairly tolerant person.
