2. I have no idea! It made 'best of' on craigslist, and it sounds
real enough. I thought joke at first too, but then it got kinda pitiful at the end. who knows. I'd like to think it's a joke.

4. I once dated a very religious guy
Never. Ever. Again. He was in his early 30s and never had sex before. And he didn't with me. Within a year after I broke up with him he married a girl he met in church.

7. I am not religious at all
I met his mom before I met him. And she is a very nice lady and I got along with her just great. She wasn't near as religious as he was. The "relationship" wasn't that long. Actually I met him when I was in the States visiting his mom and then he visited me in Germany two months later for a week. He even brought his bible with him :wtf: Longest week ever.
We talked about religion on the phone. His view of life: if something good happens to you - thank God. If something bad happens to you - blame God. :wtf: Nothing I couldn't agree with. After I broke up he sent me an very strange email. Partly insulting on my way of life. When I think about it now he really sounds like a evangelist.

9. English is not his native language
I think most of the wackiness comes from his poor stylistic command of English. For instance, his disdain of people who blink could be a calque (tortured translation) for what we'd call "having shifty eyes".

Of course, the religiomania doesn't help a bit.

--p!

11. I don't know enough about language to judge, but that was the best
part for me...

"Don't be a blinker though. I don't like when people blink too much or squeeze their eyes. I feel like they don't want to SEE JESUS. Sorry I got excited."

:rofl: even if it is a second language, that is really funny. they don't want to see jesus, oh my.
