Your poem is very funny. I like the rhyming scheme, it's very creative. I can't relate because there were no computers or web sites back when I was young and my siblings were dating. But my daughter, who's now 52, was in high school she dated a guy for over a year who was a lot like your sister's friend. I rejoiced when they broke up. I really liked the last two lines of your poem.

This is well written and the clever rhymes give the words special meaning. I don't like dating apps. They have no value in the world of dating. They seem to go after the losers instead of the winners. I often hear of disastrous dates after someone meets on a dating app. So if I come across this man I will surely shoo him away.

Rhyme scheme is solid, rhythm is as well. Well chosen words. Imagery is superb. Hopefully your sister will recognize that perfection is a lie sooner rather than later. Well written.

Oh this is awesome. Not only did you do the monorhyme in every stanza, but you did it in multi-syllable words. Way to go Jess. What a hilarious collection of words to describe this "Bozo!" Not only that, but now you have me singing the song, "You're so Vain." I will get you back for that one! Hehehe! If I were you I would hold onto this and show it to your girls someday on what they cannot bring home for a date. This is a great entry for the rhyming contest, and I love that you do not mince any words. Why beat around the bush when the word you need fits in there so perfectly. Lol... I am sure you will not need it, but good luck in the contest, Sweetie.

This contest entry was well written rich in Theme and Imagery.

My Complete Synopsis:
The Adjective and Objective Contents were both Excellent and Exceptional while Descriptive Measures aligned Perfectly.

Note: I have been involved off and on in a dating world for almost 19 years since the death of my spouse.
And I would call most and almost everyone a louse!.
Good luck with your contest entry.

Very funny. Narcissism personified. I wonder why so many women are drawn to men like this?

Well composed poem. Good meter. Your structured rhyme tells a story in a witty manner.

Not from a dating site, but I think I dated that guy! This certainly sounds like my sister's reaction to my last boyfriend. LOL. You did a great job with the description of this narcissist. Thank you for sharing, and best wishes to you.

This guy sounds like a manipulative loser. Your poem certainly captures his less than savory disposition. Hopefully he'll be out of her life very soon. People like that come a dime a dozen. Anyone who meets one should be looking for the guy who's applying the dimes.

I haven't had much success with dating sites, I have some no hopers who always want something from you and are not satisfied with just meeting and chatting, they all have an agenda, this is a strong and powerful write and might need a warning for the sexual content at the end, love Dolly x
