Game, Set, Match

Match, Match, Match...that's what us online daters call Match.com. We are too cool, I guess, to say "dot com" after the word "match". So, yes, I admit it...I did the online dating thing for a little while. It was interesting to say the least. I recently stopped - for now - only because it takes a lot of work and attention and honestly, I'm just not in the mood for that right now. But I will remember my days on Match fondly. I will especially remember the men who were sweet, sincere and charming. Even if I didn't meet these men, I will remember the way they made me feel inside just by being themselves and sharing a piece of that with me. I think an example or two would be helpful here.


We have the men who are very sentimental and sweet...
Example 1:
Hi sweetheart, I read your profile and you seem very interesting to me. I like what you are saying in the profile and I am looking for only one and one girl like you to be my life partner with whom I can stay forever together. I believe in commitment and one day I would like to get married and I have not found beauty with brain like you in my life. Your photos are great too; especially I like your beautiful eyes and nice hair. I like your dress too. I am not looking for quantity; I am looking for the quality girl like you. If you liked my profile please write me back so that we can start communicating.
I have been living here since 8 years by myself and sometimes it gets lonely, now its time to start my own family. I would like to have woman like you in my life.


We also have the comedians...

Example 2 (In response to my naming of my best feature as my hair):
just a note................HAIR ? My dear you don't know us(men) very well!!!!!!! LOL take care

And then we have the nearly speechless...

Example 3:
WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Do i need to say anymore, but again WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Example 4:
I think I'm in love..........................

As much as receiving emails like these has meant to me, I feel like my head might explode if I have to read another one. Goodbye for now Match.com, may we meet again someday...if you're lucky. :)
