Buggeration.

Saturday, May 3rd, 2008 | Idiocy, Insanity

In a moment of weakness, I signed up to Match.com’s online singles site. I figured I could meet a few like minded people to share a coffee with occasionally - oh how naive.

The whole excersise was doomed from the start. I was so focused on publishing the profile that I really didnt stop to check that all the details were 100% accurate. The day after I published everything I was totally devastated as I didn’t receive even a single ‘wink’. I thought that I’d at least get a wink from the legion of dirty old sleaze bags.

After careful examination, I realised that my profile indicated that I was a:

28 y/o Brisbane women looking for woman.

*blink*
Um?

And I didn’t even get any takers!!! With so little interest, my career as a raving lesbot was cut drastically short. I instantly corrected my mistake, and started getting loads of winks from the afore mentioned sleaze bags.

With exception of one or two people who resembled humans, I didn’t really find anything that took my breath away. I’ve now retired my profile. I’m not convinced that Match.com is the site for me - nor am I totally convinced that the whole concept of online dating is really for me. I’m having fun meeting new people face to face, so I dont really need to PAY for the benefit.

At least I can look back and laugh at my very short stint as Brisbane’s newest Out-of-the-Closet Girl!
