I get set up on a dates a lot. Normally, our first intros are over e-mail because that’s the easiest for everyone. Opening e-mails can be awkward, for sure, so I typically give dudes a lot of leeway with their first messages. But, this one I got yesterday totally turned me off. Here’s how it went:
Hi! Got your e-mail from our friend Rachel. She really sold you hard. It kinda felt like she’s your pimp or something. Which I guess makes you a crackwhore! Ha ha! Would you be free for a hang out next week?
Am I overreacting or is calling me a crackwhore in our first electronic introduction a total no go? I haven’t written back yet.
What should I do? Go out with him or not? Let me know if the comments.

This or That
Honey, what a DOUCHE… just saying. Regardless of if he was joking or not, his sense of humor when trying to impress a girl is obviously immature and obnoxious. You don’t have to go for a prim, perfect gentleman, but at least date someone with a higher standard than that!
He sounds like a complete tool!! I wouldnt respond becuase he already dosnt respect you as a woman becuase hes already insulting you!! I wouldnt!!
Personally I find what he said sort of offensive. I’m not sure if it was a joke or not, but, this is the first time he contacted you and it’s not a great first impression. But then again if you honestly think he was just kidding around and you’re comfortable and ok with what he said, i guess you should go for it.

This kind of sounds like a joke to me…
He sounds a right idiot!:L Although he could’ve been joking…
i really wouldn’t go out with him. he’d probably make weird jokes like that all night :/
Weird, but maybe he was just nervous and was joking, I don’t think it’s a HUGE deal.
Sounds like he has little respect for women…
I don’t know, I know people often joke around like that, but I feel like that’s not something you say when you’re trying to make a good first impression.
I definitely wouldn’t meet up with him.
Um no. He’s a little to comfortable writing that to someone he doesnt even know and wants to potentially go out with and imagine what he would say once he really gets comfortable..O.o I know, scary thought right. I know not everyone has the same sence of humor, but you’re clearly not digging his, so I say pass. Good luck girl
So true!!
Ick… trust me, there are PLENTY of other non-creeper-make-you-feel-uncomfortable- guys out there. Forget him, girl :/
He could either be a guy who likes to tell jokes and was trying to be funny (guys can have an odd sense of humor) or he is not that great a guy. You can’t really tell just with this. I say go out with him and see, have an open mind, but be prepared to leave if he is inappropriate.
What a creeeeeep!!!!!! forget him!
Hellno! I would totally wait for someone else. Maybe even someone that your friend didn’t pick out for you would be nice. Sounds like if she thought he would be a good match for you she doesn’t have very good taste in men, but it’s awesome that she tries to help!
She’s totally overreacting. He’s obviously just trying to make a joke and he’s probably nervous. If you don’t feel compfortable with that type of joke then maybe you shouldn’t date him. I definately don’t think he was trying to be too rude though.
