Hi, handsome man! How is your life?
Not a man. And okay, I guess.
You have no idea how unbearable it is to sit here all alone!
You have friends, I'm sure. Call one of them.
I dream of having sex with a stranger like you!
I'm not sure which part scares me more, the fact she wants sex with a stranger, or that she wants sex with someone like me.
I want to meet you online before seeing you in real life!
Y'know, it used to be the other way around. How times have changed...
I am dreaming to show yu my funny photos to wind you up!
I would LOVE to know the original words for this, because I'm pretty sure, no matter what country of origin "Isabella" lives in, this sounds like a radically different phrase IN that language.
You can find me any time at the hot dating site. Enter my private chat, honey!
I am waiting for you!
No.
You can find my profile here: [link redacted]
No.
With kisses,
Sophia
I thought your name was Isabella?

Hi, handsome man! How is your life?

You have no idea how unbearable it is to sit here all alone! I dream of having sex with a stranger like you!
I have heard this before!

So wait, you're all using the same script now??
Same message, pretty much, with more spelling errors, but at the bottom was something interesting:

Here we go again.
Hi, handsome man! How is your life?
Yeah yeah yeah...but I read 'til the end, and discovered this:
With kisses,
Emma
So...each of these are from one female name, are signed with another...WTF?
Going through my folder, I also heard from Chloe/Mia, Emily/Ava, Alexis/Hannah, Kennedy/Melanie, Ariana/Alexandra/Eva (ooh! Three names in one email!), Brooklyn/Teresa, Aubrey/Sofia (another triple!), Genesis/Alexandra/Andrea, Bailey/Caroline, Melanie/Brooke, Amelia/Leah, Lucy/Alexandra/Faith (wait, so the triple names only happen with Alexandra?), Scarlet/Madelyn, Zoey/Charlotte, and a second one from Kennedy/Melanie.
And all of them were the same basic text, with only a few variations. Frankly, I liked it better when they just threw word salad at me...
