Survival of the fittest
What's the most insane idea you've seen put forward for a date with someone from the interwebs? Other dating sites have an 'ideal date' section to profiles - I guess on here people don't articulate mad ideas for dates, it's more a case of 'here's my sexual fantasies that confirm I drool in my sleep and should really be taking anti-psychotic drugs'

Anyway, on a certain other site I saw a profile for an Army fitness instructor. As regular readers of this blog know I'd happily flush most people in the Army down the toilet, but I guess I could reach a temporary accommodation with with a female member of the armed forces if they were REALLY hot and they kept quiet about their job. Her ideal date scenario kinda showed how Army people often 'don't think things through' in normal life situations. Her dream date consisted of going down the gym, putting a guy through his paces with high intensity circuit training until he passed out or threw up.

To be honest I wouldn't ever want to go on a date with someone where it replicated their day job situation in any shape or form - it's a date, not an exam, not a job interview, not an audition. Secondly I don't think it's such a great idea to get to the point of being caked in sweat, breathing heavily, veins bulging, turning purple on a first date (maybe 4th date, but not in front of 40 other guys in a weights room).

I have blogged about fitness and lifestyle before. Yes I am physically fit, yes it matters to me that I'm slim to athletic and that the people I meet aren't huge. I detest physical laziness. However I'm not expecting every woman I socialise with/have sex with to be fit like Jessica Ennis. Lots of women online are super-demanding about physical form and say nothing about personality on their profiles. Then they're shocked and disappointed when the guys they meet are vein, boring, self-obsessed and don't treat them right. What else do you expect from a 'guilty pleasure' who isn't boyfriend material? I just want someone who looks after themself, scrubs up well when it's a special occasion, but just as importantly is a nice person who can string a paragraph together. Asking a lot? I'm happy to be written off as 'hard work' if you think so, at least I'm not going to put you through your paces because I need to know you're Army Strong.
