Spare me those lame Facebook pick-up lines

“I’m in the middle of a class so I cannot chat right now, maybe later,†was my response to a pop-up chat window on my Facebook page. “Okay see you honey,†Ivan replied.

“I’m in the middle of a class so I cannot chat right now, maybe later,†was my response to a pop-up chat window on my Facebook page. “Okay see you honey,†Ivan replied.
This is Ivan Wright my Facebook friend but I have never met him. So I wonder where he thinks he will meet me. He just called me honey and he is not the first to do that.
Why do many male friends on Facebook always want to be passionate and expressive of their desire about ladies?
They meet me online and they call me all sorts of sweet nothings such as ‘my dear’, ‘sweet heart’, ‘honey’, ‘my love’, and ‘baby’.
Do guys who are desperate, single or in complicated relationships always have to flirt to maintain the friendship?
Every time I find Ivan online he thinks I am his honey or his dearest.
Godfrey thinks I look like his ex-girlfriend who left him with a baby girl and apparently the ex-girlfriend and I share a surname.
Ivan always says I am so cute and that he wants my contact to get in touch so we link up somewhere. He believes he is in love with me.
“I love you Annet and I care about you deeply,†he wrote. Oh please!
Then Godfrey always thinks I am hot and that we should meet some place secretive. When I tell him I have a boyfriend, he says it does not matter and my boyfriend does not have to know.
But I know this is not worth it because the guy claims to be in Dubai yet when we chat more he says he lives in Mulago near TASO. Then again he says he travels around so much for business. Hmm, I wonder.
To him I am the best woman he has met who will be a mother to his daughter. He believes that since I look like his ex I will be suitable for him and his daughter.
“Nantongo mukyala wange omwagalwa,†(which means my beloved wife) I love you so much. We should meet and talk about us,†Godfrey wrote.
The most amusing is Arthur who decides to describe me as hot, cute, nice body, very nice lips and soft eyes.
What baffles me about his description is that I have no up-close photo on Facebook.
I asked him how he got all those aspects about me and he says he saw the pictures and imagined the rest.
“I imagine you have a soft body, small waist that would be nice to hold,†wrote Arthur.
But guys you can do better than this. Maintaining a relationship, especially a friendship, does not have to be too sexy with all the endearments.
It gets boring just in case you never knew.
