This text message conversation I just had is just too good not to post here on TWW. (if you don't want to read a lot scroll down to where it's bolded)

Back story: This is a girl I found on Match who shares a lot of interests as me, mainly cars and modifying cars for motorsports related stuff (a rarity). After one email she gave me her number and said to text her. Anyway, the below text conv took place 2 days after we first texted (about an hour ago), and started off as talking about going out tonight (which we'd discussed previously).

me: hey what are you up to?

her: running some errands

me: anything interesting?

her: not really

me: so for tonight, how's 8?

her: IDK

her: Not really looking to meet a bar trivia partner...not for me

(my tagline [which is a joke] on match says i'm looking for someone smart for bar trivia)

me: haha, that's just my tagline on Match. I'm not really a bar hound. You and I both seem to share a great interest in cars. It's not often I find that.

her: yeah yeah

me: so you have no interest in meeting or chatting on the phone? We haven't really talked so I don't see how you could already have formed an opinion of me

her: just tired of dating is all

me: you're not looking for someone or you're tired of the BS of dating? I can relate to the latter.

her: I'm always looking

me: Well, what's the harm in giving me a chance. AT least for just meeting up.

her: what do you drive anyway Mr gearhead?

me: S2000 and Integra GSR

her: Blah blah...all shit! That's something a high schooler drives dude

me: Wow. Well all the Porsche drivers that I passed at the track last wknd didn't think so. And what's that make your Lancer?

(at this point I thought she was throwing some sarcasm around)

her: Porsche ha I hate those too. Want a medal? Who cares if your cars fast it's a POS. Damn you're one of those assholes good bye

me: Now you're just being silly? What type of motorsports do you like to do?

her: Um fuck you dude I'm not sitting here saying my cars fast n shit leave me the fuck alone. You're a loser!

(in her Match profile she talks about modifying her Lancer to get it read for the track) At this point I start to troll her a bit

me: You said you wanted to take it to the track, I was just politely asking.

her: this conversation is over. I'm busy bye

her: Dude stop being a fuckin moron and stop texting me already

me: You're a curious individual. I still think we should meet

her: Curious? Not really. I don't wanna meet your dumb ass. Take your garbage integra n try picking up 16 yr olds...bye!

me: Not sure how you can consider me an asshole? I haven't said anything mean. And I think a '92 Integra makes for a good beater.

her: Ok stop I don't wanna talk fuck off

me: I just want to know why you got so mean all of a sudden?

me: No explanation? Alright take care then.

her: I'm not explaining shit to you

me: Come on, Let's meet up!

I realize this thread is about bitches bein crazy, but hear me out, maybe I can offer some insight.

I am in outside sales, which is currently salary+commission, but will move into straight commission starting at the beginning of July 2010. I have been in this position since July 2009. I have competition from several direct manufacturing sales reps, large distributors, and local distributors. Here are the advantages and disadvantages of each:

Direct Advantages: Immediate knowledge of new technology, no middle man mark up, one shipping bill (paid by manufacturer or buyer of goods), access to larger range of non-commodity items, control inventory, have access to many distributors that can effectively sell their goods which increases market share, and set prices of commodity they manufacture.

Direct disadvantages: Typically have 1-3 sales reps per region (i.e. southeast, mid-atlantic, northeast, etc.) limiting the number of accounts they can successfully manage/cold-call, lack physical customer service or physical technical service available to or affordable for smaller users or altogether, are sometimes not trustworthy because they will go in behind their distributors that sell their commodity to one account in large quantities (i.e. they missed a big account, and have found out about it through a distributor selling their particular product) which leads to the distributor not selling their product anymore, have too many distributors selling the product ultimately driving the set price down through deviations, possibly rely on distributors to actually sell the product, and competition from other direct sources.

Large distributor advantages: have access to other commodities that go hand in hand with other manufacturers (poor example- grocery stores sell milk as well as cereal), get direct pricing, many locations regionally or nationally easing the shipping burden of buyers with multiple locations, personal service either customer or technical, many sales reps that are able to cover a broader territory, access to multiple manufacturers of the same commodity allowing to keep prices in check, service programs that smaller companies can't offer and direct providers can't match in price or value, and experts of many many commodities as opposed to one or a few.

Large distributor disadvantages: smaller local distributors creating price wars (think Michael Scott Paper Co vs Dunder-Mifflin), direct mfg's going in behind and stealing business, limited access to all of the mfg's (you won't find Harris Teeter name brands in Food Lion and visa versa), can't truly set prices because it's based on both supply and demand, territory management, and tough growth prospects in slower economies (this is true for direct as well really)

Local distributor advantages: Typically a good ol' boy setting where the seller and the buyer know each other for years (this does happen at all levels, but mostly at the local level), local folks are right down the street and can be used in emergencies, if the local guy buys at high enough volumes then there is no shipping charge to the end user, and access to both direct mfg's and large distributors.

Local distributor disadvantages: easily beaten in price, array of commodities, array of technology, lack of trained staff, low cash flow, etc etc etc.

This is what I have noticed in my six months, I am sure there are plenty more that need mentioning. The way I am setting myself apart as a sales person is this: I go after the big accounts right now while I am new. The big accounts, if I land them, will take care of me while I am new and building a customer base. The money made off of those allows me to focus free time on smaller accounts that get me higher margins. I build up big accounts, I would like to have 5-10 of these, then get 20-30 medium accounts. If I lose 1 or 2 big accounts, the 20-30 medium accounts keep me afloat while I go after new big accounts. I don't really waste time on small accounts simply because they basically pay for breakfast or something really small.

I will say this, if you can't get a big account in the first 6-8 months (assuming you have cash flow that you can ride this long) you could be in a world of trouble. If you can get one, it will really make going after the others a lot more enjoyable and less stressful. It's simply just very exhausting wasting any time on anything other than big accounts in the very beginning. You work just as hard on the medium sized accounts and see 1/3 to 1/36 of the money in my situation.

If you have any other questions, you can PM me. I hope this helps in the slightest!

8/31/2011 1:37:25 PM

So basically...

You sound just as crazy as she does. Trolling or not, the fact that you responded in that way or even cared enough to keep it going shows some hurt feelings. She's just not that into you, so why make a big deal out of it?

I think this conversation shows what a loser you are. I don't blame her for telling you to fuck off.

Calm down, Drew Barrymore. The mere mention of his cars drove her away in disgust. He was cordial until she wasn't. Please tell us how she's the sane one.

8/31/2011 1:44:12 PM

Further proof (most) women men are crazy.

Um you went on Match what do you expect. When she wasn't interested you hounded her and became a creeper.

Not saying she was a catch or anything but it was obvious she wasn't interested.

8/31/2011 1:44:52 PM

a girl that's into cars? lol, good luck with that.

8/31/2011 1:46:14 PM

I would have stopped after about the 2nd text. Being a bitch already? No, thank you.

8/31/2011 1:46:43 PM

Not sure why she gave you her # in the first place if those were her responses, even her initial texts seem distant. I used to find that if they don't ask you a question back within the first or second text, then that means they are a GINORMOUS CRAZY ASS BITCH.

Or just not that into you... but I would never admit that to myself.

8/31/2011 1:46:52 PM

Thought it was pretty obvious once she flew off the deepend he was fucking with her.

Also, her profile doesn't read like she's the sharpest tool in the shed..

this is probably the reason she is on match.com

she sounds like a crazy bitch who obviously has some serious social issues as well


the fact that she makes fun of an Integra and is modifying a Lancer is absolutely hilarious.

[Edited on August 31, 2011 at 1:54 PM. Reason : and also shows she knows absolutely nothing about cars, the value of cars, performance, etc.]

8/31/2011 1:57:28 PM

Give her number to drunknloaded

8/31/2011 1:59:30 PM

the moment she responded with "not really" you should have said fuck it and done the one last text move

8/31/2011 2:03:09 PM

I'm gonna email this chick on match tonight. Will report back...

8/31/2011 2:06:33 PM

30 posts in before someone asks if shes hot

Is she hot?

8/31/2011 2:07:42 PM

being a creeper = cray cray.

Come on TKE you are a not a bad looking dude and a social pariah so you shouldn't be on match in the 1st place...

8/31/2011 2:08:19 PM

Body seems tight; face is a little... Long.

Dumb as a sack of bricks.

Rule # 1 about getting women don't care about the women.
Rule # 2 do not try too hard

@ 1st sign of disinterest walk away carefree and half the time you'll be followed

8/31/2011 2:11:28 PM

And for fucks sake. Listen to what people are saying.


If someone says NO at least 2 times in a row... turn around and walk away!

8/31/2011 2:12:09 PM

Also think you should give up looking for girls who are into cars.

1) You'll be hard pressed finding attractive ones.

2) Just seems a little "off" if girls are into cars that much.

3) You can let it be that one hobby that you have to yourself.

8/31/2011 2:14:24 PM

at least she showed you the crazy now instead of 3+ months into a relationship


she sounds like some dumb white trash anyway- good riddance

about any of this

there is no proof needed really

yeah, I too, think you were talking to a guy and got trolled

You kept texting her even though she told you in her 4th reply she wasn't interested. While she should have just stopped responding to you, you really don't see why she finally got exasperated with you?

8/31/2011 2:18:06 PM

Didn't seem like anything he/she typed registered in TKE's brain.

Like she could say anything, no matter how vulgar, and tke-teg would keep bulldozing his way into the conversation.

I guess some of yall are failing to read the backstory here- he says they had exchanged info and been texting over a period of 2 days. If that were me, and I all the sudden got the cold shoulder, I'd want an explanation, if for no other reason, to see what I was doing wrong

Yea...I don't see how anyone could not consider her the crazy one if you cut the whole conversation off there. After that...

Edit: I think he was talking to someone who wanted to steal his car, then when they find out what kind of car he drove, they no longer wanted to steal it. (Not that I'm dissing your cars...just saying...)

explanation is pure simple. She met a dude, she fucked dude, she gets text from TKE, dude asked "who is that?" She says "some fucktard that keeps bothering me". He says "let me handle this". Both get LuLz for the rest of the day

8/31/2011 2:22:23 PM

Also sounds like she found someone more attractive on match and was trying to give you the cold shoulder.

I would say, "good troll"...but in the end you just look really pathetic to her...so I don't see the point.
