One hundred cups of coffee with 100 men.
Until recently, some bankers tried trading on their lucrative professions to attract members of the opposite sex. And as with many of the shaky transactions leading up to the financial crisis, the strategy used to work.
Guys can be fickle, or, as the French say, "huge jerks who don't call women back." Sometimes, though, we've got a pretty valid excuse for not picking up the phone. Here are 10 reasons why men might not call you back for that second date.
"Just being boring," says the star of the new flick Love Happens
On her second time around, 51-year-old divorcee Susan Potter decided to try online dating to find her perfect match.
Though one or two exes might dispute this, I've never been one of those crazy girls. Under normal circumstances I don't snoop, don't obsess (too much), and am generally fairly sane(ish) in my dealings with the opposite sex.
In January, I left a live-in relationship after three years. The experience was all the sad adjectives you can imagine. But after the sobbing spells and the heavy drinking, the fog lifted -- I was finally single again for the first time since after I graduated college.

I've been doing the online dating thing for a while. Match, Nerve, JDate, OkCupid, you name it. Generally, I'm a fan (it feels sort of like shopping for boys, no?). That said, there's also a lot about it that never fails to appall me. Namely, what guys seem to think is attractive, funny, or sexy in their profiles.
