Fat AND annoying. Tries to make up for her ample size by being the
life and soul of the party and fails in all respects.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Gosh.. i didn't know i am fat and annoying.. But maybe truth in

      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;'Tall, dark and handsome turns out to be short, fat and
ugly': Learn how&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;strong&gt;to read between the lines with
our online dating dictionary&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;hr style="color: #f1fcff;" /&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;Some Online/Internet
Dating Tips - Reading between the lines in the profiles. Good humor
yet factual - Enjoy yourselves.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-size: small;"&gt;Five-times-married Jan Leeming
claimed in Femail last week that internet dating has given her a
new lease of life - and she's not alone. A staggering 65 per cent
of British singletons now turn to the internet looking for love.
But everyone who's ever dated online knows personal profiles can be
a minefield - too often a tall, dark, handsome millionaire turns
out to be a short, fat, ugly geek. Here, to help you read between
the lines of adverts, CLAUDIA CONNELL brings you a handy his 'n'
hers Dating Dictionary.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-size: medium;"&gt;&lt;span style=
"color: black;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;WHAT WOMEN REALLY
MEAN&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: x-small;"&gt;ADORABLE&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;
Wetter than Pamela Anderson's swimming costume. She'll be forever
showing you pictures of fluffy kittens on her mobile phone and, on
your first date, will have given pet names to all your fingers
before the main course arrives.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;CURVY&lt;/strong&gt; Fat. Forget any silly notions of Marilyn
Monroe's softly sensuous body. This girl is more pint glass than
hourglass.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;VOLUPTUOUS&lt;/strong&gt; Fat and shows too much flesh in clothes
two sizes too small for her.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;BUBBLY&lt;/strong&gt; Fat AND annoying. Tries to make up for her
ample size by being the life and soul of the party and fails in all
respects.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;img src=
"http://i.dailymail.co.uk/i/pix/2008/10/01/article-0-02DE052400000578-92_468x286.jpg"
alt="" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;em&gt;His ad says he's attractive, sporty and 5ft 10in. That means
he's ugly, 5ft 3in and plays snooker&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;CUDDLY&lt;/strong&gt; Morbidly obese. A date would necessitate
the removal of the roof and a whale sling. Cuddling is very
unlikely, although squashing is a distinct possibility.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;BBW&lt;/strong&gt; Stands for 'big, beautiful woman'. Well, two
out of three's not bad. She's certainly big and female. But it's
doubtful many beholders will consider her beautiful.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;SIZE&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;strong&gt;10&lt;/strong&gt; In Uzbekistan. On the UK
High Street it's a completely different story.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;FIERY&lt;/strong&gt; Psychotic. Cancel a date with this girl and
you'll come home to find your car has been keyed and all the
sleeves have been cut off your shirts.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;VIVACIOUS&lt;/strong&gt; Aggressive. An opinionated
finger-jabber. She's got views on everything and she's not afraid
to ram them forcefully down your throat.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;GREAT PERSONALITY&lt;/strong&gt; Ugly as sin. If a woman is
selling her personality, then her face looks good in a paper
bag.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;ARTISTIC&lt;/strong&gt; Drama Queen. Welcome to a world of
slamming doors, smashed crockery and huffy silences.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;ATHLETIC AND TONED&lt;/strong&gt; Flat chested and shapeless. A
sexless, lumpless and bumpless Tomboy.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;AGE 34&lt;/strong&gt; Age 43. There's more chance of winning the
Lottery on a double rollover week than there is of being a woman
over 35 and getting a date on the internet. It doesn't matter if
the guy is 60, he'll still confine his searches to '35 and under',
so any woman's age should be taken as a ball park figure.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;PLAYFUL&lt;/strong&gt; Hussy. Working her way through the
internet site and it's your turn.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;GIRLY&lt;/strong&gt; Thick. Shallower than a mouse's foot bath.
High School Musical is her idea of high brow. She can tell you the
name of every character in TV teen drama Gossip Girl, but has no
idea who the Prime Minister is.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;LIVES LIFE TO THE FULL&lt;/strong&gt; Alcoholic. Likes to start
the day with a couple of Bacardi Breezers. Happy Hour is her
favourite time of day.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;I'M INTO WHIRLWIND ROMANCES&lt;/strong&gt; My visa runs out in 10
days and if I don't get married I'll be deported.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;CHALLENGING&lt;/strong&gt; High-maintenance pain in the
neck.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;HOMELY&lt;/strong&gt; Frump. You want to paint the town red and
she'll want you to paint her living room beige. Brace yourself for
a world of cup-a-soups and novelty toilet roll holders.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;LOYAL&lt;/strong&gt; Stalker. She'll have Googled you and looked
you up on Friends Reunited before you even meet. Her brain cannot
process the words: 'I don't think you're quite right for me.'&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;LIKES THE FINER THINGS IN LIFE&lt;/strong&gt; Gold digger.
Looking for a new wardrobe, jewellery and a few weekends away
before she dumps you for a 25-year-old Adonis.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;HONEST&lt;/strong&gt; No social skills. The censorship button in
her brain doesn't work. Says whatever comes into her head.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;SENSITIVE&lt;/strong&gt; Cry baby. Woe betide you if you don't
notice she's had her hair cut or that she's wearing new
shoelaces.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-size: medium;"&gt;&lt;span style=
"color: black;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;WHAT MEN REALLY
MEAN&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;ATTRACTIVE&lt;/strong&gt; Plain. Everyone in online dating is
'attractive.' In the real world it means 'pleasant to look at' - in
the internet-speak it means: two eyes, two ears and a mouth.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;FAIRLY ATTRACTIVE&lt;/strong&gt; Gutchurningly hideous. When he's
not even claiming to be attractive, it's time to worry. Andrew
Lloyd Webber will look like a Calvin Klein model next to this guy.
Meeting under the cover of darkness is advised.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;TOLD ATTRACTIVE&lt;/strong&gt; By my mother, the only woman I've
every loved or am ever likely to.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;RUGBY PLAYER'S BUILD&lt;/strong&gt; One who retired 10 years ago.
Stop thinking: Jonny Wilkinson. Start thinking: Johnny Vegas.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;img src=
"http://i.dailymail.co.uk/i/pix/2008/10/01/article-1066311-02A2C8B6000004B0-903_224x390.jpg"

alt="" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Translation: When his ad says 'rugby player's build' he doesn't
mean Jonny Wilkinson, he really means Johnny Vegas&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;DISCRETION EXPECTED&lt;/strong&gt; I'm married and don't want my
wife to know.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;DISCRETION OFFERED&lt;/strong&gt; I don't care if you're married
too.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;HOPE YOU LIKE MY PICTURE&lt;/strong&gt; Taken 10 years ago and
bears no resemblance on now.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;MODERN MAN&lt;/strong&gt; We'll be splitting the bill 50/50. I go
on three of these internet dates a week. So unless you're a sure
thing you pay for your own dinner.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;NOT JUST LOOKING FOR SEX&lt;/strong&gt; I am just looking for sex
but hope you won't see through my cunning reverse psychology.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;img src=
"http://i.dailymail.co.uk/i/pix/2008/10/01/article-1066311-02DE058200000578-628_468x286.jpg"
alt="" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;WILLING TO TRAVEL&lt;/strong&gt; Lives in a filthy flea-ridden
hovel that he can't possibly let you see.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;ADVENTUROUS&lt;/strong&gt; Pervert. He can turn anything into a
double entendre. On a date he'll order graphically named cocktails
and talk dirty with you over the garlic bread.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
NORMAL KIND OF GUY&lt;/strong&gt; Normal in a Norman Bates kind of way.
Normality should be a given, so run a mile from anyone selling it
as a good point.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
GSOH (GOOD SENSE OF HUMOUR)&lt;/strong&gt; No sense of humour. The golden
rule of internet dating is that anyone who feels obliged to mention
they have a sense of humour is usually devoid of one.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
EARNS A SIX-FIGURE SALARY&lt;/strong&gt; Yes, he does. But he includes
pence in that figure.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
NEVER DONE THIS&lt;/strong&gt; Have done this a thousand times before,
but I'm too embarrassed to admit it, so will pretend that you're my
first.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
FUN AND ZANY&lt;/strong&gt; Mental age of a 12-year-old. Your date will
be a riot of whoopee cushions, itching powder and
fake-dogpoo-filled fun.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
LOOKS NOT IMPORTANT&lt;/strong&gt; Barrel-scraping beggar who can't
afford to be a chooser.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
5ft 10&lt;/strong&gt; 5ft 7. It's safe to deduct three inches from any
man claiming to be between 5ft 7 and 5ft 10.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
SPORTY&lt;/strong&gt; I watched the Olympics and play snooker for the
local pub team.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;UNIQUE&lt;/strong&gt; Sex change. Best not to hang around long
enough to find out whether it's pre op or post op.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
NOT INTO EMAIL TENNIS&lt;/strong&gt; I need to secure a date as soon as
possible, before you suss out what a tedious dullard I am.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
OLD FASHIONED&lt;/strong&gt; Male chauvinist pig. A woman's place is in
the home and, more precisely, the kitchen - preferably cooking his
meals and elbow deep in his dirty shirts.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;TRADITIONAL&lt;/strong&gt; Patronising. He'll order for you in a
restaurant and pat you on the bottom and say 'don't you worry your
pretty head about it' when you ask him about his day.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
MANLY&lt;/strong&gt; Hairy. Only to be pursued if you like men who moult
all over your furniture.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;DISTINGUISHED&lt;/strong&gt; Old. Speak slowly and clearly and
always be within five minutes of a toilet. The good news is he
travels for free and gets in half-price at the cinema.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
INDEPENDENT&lt;/strong&gt; Lying, cheating commitment-phobic scum.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
UNCONVENTIONAL&lt;/strong&gt; Insane. The sort of person you cross the
road to avoid, even if the road is the M1 in the rushhour.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
ASPIRATIONAL&lt;/strong&gt; Broke. He has lofty ideas, but not a penny to
his name. Expect early-bird specials on your date.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;ROMANTIC&lt;/strong&gt; Oily creep. The flowers come from the
garage forecourt and he calls you 'babe' or 'sweetheart' because he
can't remember your name.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
