This is the response I get this morning:
You should probably spell-check your copy & paste e-mail before you send it out to a bunch of people you're "interetsted" in
My response: Excuse me? Wow, I accidentally inserted a letter and you turn around an insinuate things?? Why are you even on here?
Him: I insinuated what I did because your e-mail was so blatantly generic that I'm sure it was sent to a bunch of people, typo and all. And you're absolutely right, I've resorted to internet dating because of my inability to hit it off with a cat lady/CougarLife.com reject who struggles with spelling
I didn't even respond. WTF is that??? I mean unbelievable.

LOL wow... He was really rude for no reason. I thought men on dating sites usually complain about women not writing them back and he had the nerve to complain when someone actually initiated contact with him?? Either he's some stud who's used to women falling at his feet or he's bitter that he's not getting attention from the women he wants, so he took it out on you when you wrote to him just because he's not interested in you. I don't think it had anything to do with the typo, really. I don't know why some men and women think they're entitled to anything more than a "generic" first contact message. Why put special effort into a message when you don't even know if the person is going to write you back? I think if he had liked your profile, he wouldn't have cared that you sent him a "generic" message.
Also, the first guy obviously had issues, but I can understand how he felt he was being jerked around since you only told him "something came up." It doesn't excuse his behavior, but at least he showed his true colors before you met him.
