so i’m stuck at work killing some time, waiting for a meeting to be over. it’s 8pm and i’ve been here since 9 this morning.

    anyhoo…

      a friend of mine (and really it’s a friend, not me disguised) set up one of those online dating service profiles. she found this dude and it seemed like they had so much in common!! they both wanted a honeymoon in the same place! they both studied the same type stuff, have similar advanced degrees!! have similar religious views! WOW! it was soooo surreal.

        then he came to visit.

          upon spending time together, they realized, nah, they actually aren’t quite a “compatible” as the website said.

            but honestly, should they really be so surprised that it seemed like a good match at first? Come on! the reason why they met in the first place is they filled out the questionnaire the same way. but just because you both want 3 kids and think a good sense of humor is so important doesn’t necessarily mean a good match. i think it can give a false sense of compatibility. not always, but probably often.

              i’m seeing a guy right now… and on paper we probably wouldn’t be the e-match. like different music, have lived in very opposite type places, i had never been on a 4 wheeler before meeting him, etc. but it works. it just works. we do have other big things compatible like our faith and our outlook on life. both like sports, even if we root for different teams. :)

                so i’ll take the real-life match over the e-match! but more power to ya if that e-match was fantastic. i’ll see you on the commercial!
