Facebooking

I JOINED FACEBOOK several years ago out of curiosity to see what all the fuss was about. I soon found out.I soon realied that I could use Facebook to promote this website, one way or antoher,and that I had no interest in messaging or making friends online. Or chasing women. I can do all that in person, right here where I live. I have no profile, and I never message anyone, except a rare remark on messanger made to a nice lady I befriended quite by accident. But I get a near constant stream of messages from attractive young women. It amazes me. Always has, still does. I did the math, and calculated that if every man on Facebook receives as many messages from as many atractive young laides as I - and why wouldn't they? - then the average man on Faceboook gets several dozen messages per day from dozens of different attractive young ladies, or, there are literally billions of attractive young ladies on Facebook, messaging men. All of them want to see a picture of me. I reply that there is a picture of me on my website, (this website), and nowhere else. That completely confuses all of them, for some reason. Most of them it angers. They never ask politely for a picture of me; they demand one. "Send pic", is the most common phrase. As if it is my solemn, sacred obligation for me to give everyone who messagess me a picture of me, on demand. As if they have never heard of a "website" before, and have no idea how to access one. As if the phrase "The Truthless Reconciler" is inherently incomprehensible. I honestly explain that I do not know how to take and send a "selfie". They ignore that. Only rearely does a young attractive lady ever actually make it to this website, which is too bad, but, oh well..when they do, they seem to find these essays incomprehensible, or,if nothing else, unworthy of their opinion. I never get the feecback I want. Ever. They uniformly insist that they are looking for their one true love in life, a serious relationship. When they find out that I am sixty eight years old, they almost always seem undeterred. Age is just a number. Often, they ask me "what are you looking for here?" (Facebook). I always give the same one word answer, and its honest every time. I tell them: "nothing". This too seems to thoroughly confuse them. Often they make no response at all, and I never hear from them again. As if anyone who uses Facebook and responds to messgaes from attractive young ladies must be crazy, to not be looking for anything. Only an idiot would want nothing. I realize that I do not have to respond to messages from attractive young ladies. Several reasons why I do. For one thing, courtesy. For another, I joined Facebook for the online experience, and, by god, I am going to have the online experience. And then too, I participate for what I might learn, from a psychological and sociological standpoint. What I think I have learned so so far I do not entirely like. Everyone of these attractive young ladies looking for the love of their lives eventually asks me for money. Every single one of them, and there have been hundreds. Sometimes they try to scam me, although usually its the men who do that. I could have given away a fortune by now,if I were a gillable idiot. This constant money grubbing upsets me; maybe I should just smile, and think of it as normal.
