One of my friends has decided to put up a profile on Match . com. She’s pretty, smart, accomplished, etc. But, she just can’t seem to meet the right one. Story of my life, really, minus the pretty, smart, and accomplished bit. Anyway, she’s been trying to convince me to put up a profile for myself too, but I won’t. She lives in the city. I live in the sticks. If I put a profile up there, everyone’s going to know about it. I’ll be walking down Main St, and some random folk will honk their horn and go, “Hey, you’re on Match, right?”

But, out of curiosity, I wanted to see what kind of people are on it. So, I went and put in my zipcode. Well, it makes you log in first before you can see the profiles. So, not wanting to have any connection to the website, I created a fake email address. I could use one for junk mail anyway (sha right!). So, after 5 minutes, I was able to log in.

And I was actually quite surprised. The people who are there look normal. Some are even nice looking. They all say they just can’t seem to meet the right people. Even the girls are normal and nice looking. Heck, I even saw someone I know! And she’s both normal and nice looking.

But, nevertheless, I’m not going to put myself out there like that and not just because it’s a small town. Besides, I can’t exactly see myself going out with a stranger anyway – no matter how normal or nice looking they are. I’d be a nervous wreck. Oh well, I had an entertaining 30 minutes looking through the list. It’s always fun reading what people say about themselves. And here I am writing about it. Oh what a sad life I lead.
