Granted, I do agree that he is overreacting. But at the same time, metaphors like your examples aren't cool when it comes to describing oneself. Unless maybe you're writing poetry or something creative. Even then, terms like you used are sorta corny.

The way I see it, if you're having to describe yourself in the first place, you are obviously using either the internet or some sort of dating service, as people who have met in person, don't generally describe themselves to one another - so you're already "that person" anyway.

I'm not sure what everyone else was referring to, but I don't internet date. I was referring to some of the blind dates that I've had.
