Increasingly the responses to my Craigslist ads have been from women who express no specific or immediate interest in going out with me, but merely appreciation and encouragement in my ongoing 100 Days of Craigslist project.
Responses in general have slowed somewhat. That's not really surprising. I assume there are only a fixed number of people who read Craigslist personals regularly, and judging by the increasing number of my ads that get flagged, some portion of those people find my daily posts irksome and pedantic.
I am not discouraged, however. I'm operating under the assumption that some of you are just not responding because you'd rather read the remaining 80-some ads than risk the disappointment of another internet date. I'm hoping for a spike in responses after Day 100.
That (only somewhat laughable) theory, combined with the fact that I'm already up later than is probably wise on a weeknight, means that for today, I'm cutting my ad short and looking forward to Day 100. Regular posting will of course resume tomorrow.
Suggestions for new topics are always welcome.
