So I've decided that the problems with the girls that read personal ads is that their expectations are too high. By the time you've resorted to personal ads, you need to be able to accept the absolute bottom of the barrel. That's all there is on personal ads, people that have exhausted all other resources and come to the inevitable conclusion that there is probably nobody other there for them. It's like fishing high, you don't really care if you catch anything, you just want to be able to tell people that you tried so you don't seem uninterested.
