Match.com stats: Total profile views: 884 ( 44 since yesterday) New emails: 2 (“falafel” count: 4/16, sent email: 1) New winks: 3 Optimism level: Gotta spread the eggs to several baskets For some reason the page views dropped significantly today. It can’t be because of the new narrative because they’d have to open my profile [...]

Last night I scrapped my old profile narrative and made a brand new one. I’m glad I did. The one that’s been viewable [...]

Well, today I did something that could land me in some guy’s blog of Match.com horror stories. I’ve been feeling bad about not responding to the emails. I could have [...]
Match.com stats: Total profile views: 655 (130 since yesterday) New emails: 2 (“falafel” count: 2/13) New winks: 5 Optimism level: Things seem to be picking up. I’m sure my blog is becoming a bit redundant; guy sends me an email and I pick it apart. But as I mentioned, I’ve been holding off on contacting [...]
Match.com stats: Total profile views: 525 ( 59 since yesterday) New emails: 1 (“falafel” count: 2/11) New winks: 4 Optimism level: They’re all turkeys. One of the winks came from the guy on day #2 who emailed me saying my profile was “seductive.” I have to give him points for following up and for replacing [...]
Match.com stats: Total profile views: 466 (75 since yesterday) New emails: 2 (“falafel” count: 2/10) New winks: 3 Optimism level: Nothing to be thankful for…yet I seem to recall that when I tried Match the first time, I received around 7-10 emails a day instead of the two or three I’m getting this time. Maybe [...]
Match.com stats: Total profile views: 391 (83 since yesterday) New emails: 1 New winks: 0 Optimism level: Attention drifting to humorously bad profiles I haven’t received any winks since the first day. It occurred to me that all the winks came in the wee hours of Saturday morning when I happened to be logged on [...]

I realized that today is the last chance I have to change or cancel my subscription (I signed up for six months) so I decided to look into eHarmony and see what [...]
Match.com stats: Total profile views: 239 (127 since yesterday) New emails: 1 New winks: 0 Optimism level: Testing, 1, 2, 3. Is this thing on? Only 48 hours into this journey and compared to yesterday, I’m down two emails and four winks (though I got an extra 15 page views). Perhaps on this, the day [...]
I started by weeding out everybody I couldn’t possibly imagine having sex with. Let’s face it, if the main picture a guy chooses to represent himself shows absolutely no potential, it’s not likely there will be any improvement in person. I’m trying not to be too picky on looks (which has been my downfall in the past), but online personals just don’t afford one the opportunity to win another over with a fabulous personality. I don’t need an immediate or strong attraction, just a lack of repulsion.
I’m taking the plunge…again. I tried Match.com briefly a few years ago with no success. I actually went out with three guys I met online and surprisingly, they were decent guys with good jobs: an engineer, a dentist and an actor. Ok, so just two had good jobs. I didn’t feel chemistry with any of [...]
