Even More Internet Dating

December 6, 2010

Once upon a time, dear reader, I was an internet dating website addict.  I used to come home from work, turn on my computer and open up Internet Explorer.  My home pages were Yahoo! Personals, OkCupid, PlentyofFish, and eHarmony.  (Hell, I might have even had my IE in my startup folder.)  Then I’d spend the [...]

eDating Profile FAIL (in my opinion)

March 31, 2010

So as you may or may not know, dear reader, I’m an avid internet dater.  I’m on the injured reserved list right now, so I can only spectate.  I’ll be back out there soon:  I don’t anticipate being an emotional cripple for all that much longer.  I have the OkCupid iPhone app (don’t judge), and [...]

Dear Secret Blog – I Mean Didi

December 24, 2009

Oh, to be a fly on the wall of my brain.  I’ve been meaning to write Didi a nice loooong email for a little while now (as though there were another kind).  Too much shite is running around in my brain right now, and I haven’t been blogging it out like I usually do.  Quite [...]

Headshrinking/Heartshrinking

December 10, 2009

Know what I’m wondering, dear reader?  I’m wondering if I’m getting too comfortable in my singlehood.  That maybe I’m actually afraid of trying to date again. I’ve been on a total hiatus from dating for quite a while now.  Months ago, I realized that I was completely obsessed with internet dating:  I’d come home and [...]

Trolling for Chicks on the Internet

October 8, 2009

I’ve been feeling like I’m halfway getting a cold over the past couple of days.  On Monday, my head felt a bit congested – but not in my sinuses, kind of like over my ears.  You know, where my brain should be filling the space?  I don’t get it, but it was worse today:  I [...]

Still MORE Internet Dating Pickup Lines That Didn’t Work

September 9, 2009

My sister Katie (who always remembers to bring the awesomeness) suggested today that I post some more stuff about internet dating.  I think she’s probably looking for a funny-ish rant along the lines of “Yet Another Reason Why eHarmony Sucks“, but I don’t know if I have something like that in me tonight. At this [...]

A Few Quick Things…

August 13, 2009

It’s now seven past midnight. I’ve been up ’til 1AM for the past several nights and haven’t been very good about making it to work on time (8:30AM). So, while this won’t be all that short, my actual intellectual contribution to today’s post will be. Ef a bunch of BS, I ordered the internet today [...]

Yet Another Reason Why eHarmony Sucks

August 6, 2009

Dear eHarmony, Blow me, you fat ugly bag of worthless money-sucking and time wasting boring profiles. Your website sucks.  And I’m not just talking about the bullshit “people” you “match” me with after I’ve logged in.  I’m talking about the rest of the site.  You know – the only parts that I can see right [...]

Yahoo! Personals Blows

June 4, 2009

It really does.  Maybe I shouldn’t be biting the hand that feeds me:  I’ve been on more dates from Y!P than all of the other dating sites combined.  And I am and have been on quite a few (dating sites – I’m not on a date right now). No, dear reader, I’m in the office [...]

Internet Dating: Art or Science?

May 15, 2009

Thanks everybody for the comments to yesterday’s post.  I’m always happy to receive (and mostly discard) internet dating advice.  I don’t know that I’ve mentioned it recently, but I’ve been doing the internet dating thing for about three and a half years now.  Whether I’ve got the whole thing down-pat is certainly up for debate.  [...]
