And the search continues...

And so the search continues...

Upon re-joining Match.com, I quickly started to search for new boys, started winking at a few, and getting ready to prove Match wrong that 6 months is not long enough to find love. The first few searches yielded little fun. In fact, many of my past "dates" ended up in the results. They were quickly "x'd" out to prevent them from continuing to come up in the searches. (And odd that so many of them were still on there. I'm telling you, Match, love can NOT be found in 6 months.)

After a few different tweeks of my profile and my "search" requests, I started to find some new, slightly more interested men on the internet. I quickly started throwing out some winks and an email or two. Then I took a moment to reflect on the whole process of online dating and match.com as a whole. In reality, there aren't too many aspects one can "search" for another, but online dating tries to make it easy for you by giving you all these "characteristics" that one can search. But they are ridiculously mundane and simplistic. For the most part, there is an age range, height, hair color, eye color, faith, ethnicity, etc. There isn't a "psycho", "obsessive", or "socially inept" buttons. I mean, really? But I guess everyone has to start somewhere.

Anyway, I'll close letting you know that there are a few conversations, a potential "In N Out" date, and maybe a few boys that everyone will enjoy hearing about.
