You Must Be Kidding Me

I am supposed to be in the gym right now but I had to put my bag down and get this post UP.

Yesterday I got an email from one of these sites saying they had found my match. On a whim, with a coworker, I filled out a profile there. And no, I'm not saying which one. This one CLAIMS to really narrow down your matches based on this EXTENSIVE questionaire that you're required to complete. Halfway through, I yawned, stopped answering questions and just saved the thing as it was. I have the patience of a 4 year old and answering questions for TWO hours was not my idea of fun.

My most recent match talked about his best friends, a couple, who led him to Jesus. It also went on to say that before responding to his profile, I should "pray to Jesus".

"Um...Bud, are you really so scary that I should fall into prayer, down on my knees, before even making my first contact with you?"

I also wrote to said site asking if they ever match females with females, males with males....etc. No response. This one is so ultra right wing, Christian focused, that they can't even write me back to say, "You will be cast into hell, you silly lesbian!!!!!!!!!!"

Furthermore, they INSIST that you must stay within a SIX year range of your own age in order to match you. Who in the fuck do they think they are? Do they really believe that dating someone 7 to 10 years older or younger than you is surely doomed to hell? Well, I guess so.

So, either I answered my half stack of questions incorrectly or they are just determined to match me with 48 year old Bible thumping gentlemen. They've done it twice now. Think I'll go take my chances on the Edating section of EBiker (if such a site exists). I'm sure those guys and girls would be much more FUN. I'm leaving to go look now.
