A little update on my Match.com adventures. Basically there is nothing going on. That isn't really an exaggeration. That could very well change this afternoon, as I am either talking to no one or emailing 5 guys at the same time. I feel like this time around there are not as many options as last time. I am hoping this is a good thing and maybe a sign of some slight maturity in a year's time. I learned from last time that it is a good thing to be picky, and that is what I am doing. I also learned that if a guy suddenly becomes uninterested, it is not the end of the world, he is just not interested and there will be another one eventually. Truthfully, why would I want to spend time talking to a guy who doesn't really think I'm awesome anyway? No big deal. Move on to the next prospect.
The main thing that I am doing differently not just on Match.com but in the dating world in general, is to keep my standards where I want them. I don't want to "go out" just to have something to do when I know the person is not going to be someone I am interested in moving forward with. I think girls and maybe guys too make this mistake often and it is a reason for a lot of unnecessary heartbreak. There is absolutely nothing wrong with being single and enjoying this time in your life. You should never feel alone enough to be with someone just to replace being alone. This does not mean I am cancelling out everyone that emails me, but I am definitely looking a lot closer into the fine print of the profiles.
God has a plan for me as he does for you too. I do hope He uses His sense of humor on some of my dating adventures (not forever haha) just to keep things fun and interesting, but I am being patient and just enjoying the ride. This blog may be a little deeper than the others, but quite honestly I just don't have anything worth mentioning and I think this is the reason why. I do have a friend who has met a guy on match.com and they are moving forward in their relationship and she is very excited. I am so happy for her and it was a reminder that there is hope that eventually "When you know, you know" :-)
