Pearl Jam Dating Service

Drowned Out

1ThoughtKnown said:

I must be blessed, met a woman going through a divorce. Told her to listen to a few PJ songs. She was hooked. ("Betterman" had her bawling in the airport of Calgary, "Gone" had her crying on a treadmill) So, I took my time to see how things would shake out,and low and behold we fell in love and now she is as big a Jammer as I am. 7 shows in 5 countries in 10 months.
She even hung with me four back in front of Eddie at Trieste. 3 hours where nothing else mattered, was Us, a bunch of friends and the band.
I will never forget that feeling, was like the universe had completely aligned for me.
Not too mention it is the best concert I have ever seen, and I have seen many.

Awesome. This is the thing...I think PJ's sound and lyrics appeal to a super broad audience. And by broad I mean girly :P totally kidding......but seriously, most people can find something to take away from PJ, and if the person they love is a die hard, they will look for those things. And most people aren't exposed to more than one or two songs per album....so once you start to know a person, and suggest songs from the catalogue that fit their taste as recommendations, it should be easy to find common PJ-ground like you did.
But one question....how the hell had your girl never heard Betterman before you met? I see you're in Edmonton....the Bear and Sonic both play lots of PJ!

Good Question! lol. (you know i had to ask it when we met)

Her story (she is now a 10c member as well and I am wondering if she will stumble upon this lol) is that she got married young, and it was just before the shift in music happened. So she was a Bruce Springsteen, John Cougar, Neil Young, CCR, GnR, Arrowsmith fan. Nothing wrong with any of that, but she had children and just sort of missed it (her words).
She lives in Calgary, where I am soon to move of course, and I am not so sure she listened to the radio much. Then again even if she heard it, maybe it just didn't resonate at the time.
The night I met her I played in Hiding on You tube through my Playstation, the Single Video theory clip. that song was powerful to me at the time. She honestly didn't seem to get it and I was a little disappointed, haha.
I saw a few points on here that it is easier to create a PJ fan as a mate then find one, and that just may be true. lol.
And your point was right, the more songs I would suggest to her because I thought they could help her through the situation, the more she wanted. She wanted to hear them all. Best part of this is that I can share the experiences, the concerts and the cities we travel to together.

For 1ThoughtKnown,

this is a beautiful story and I like to tell you that not only you are blessed with your girlfriend.
I think she is blessed with you too bc you are such a great person to gave her not only enough time to get over her divorce you also gave her this special music to help her get over it. I can only imagine how great it must be to find someone so sensitive like you who loves this music so much and share all this together !
Wishing you both great love and wonderful experiences together from the other side of this world.
Peace - Love & PJ

I'm too chickenshit to use this thread as intended but I can definitely relate to the sentiment!
PJ appreciation, existing or developed, is now a definite deal-maker / -breaker for me!!

Even finding someone my age who has the depth to appreciate PJ's music and what it all means to me for a simple discussion, let alone finding some to date that has that same appreciation.
Oh yeah I'm female, I'm 58 and in California.

Well it's legitimately a place where people can post their age, gender, and location and see if anyone bites....

"See if anyone bites...."

Adding a bit of kink to the forum, are we, PJ_Soul?

I'm in too! Having the same problems but being single after a 13 year relationship is really weird as I'm now 36 and never really did the dating scene before. It might just be nice though to make some international friends who love Pearl Jam too...I should say, I am female, and live in Sheffield, UK x

ahh shit…..what can it hurt…

35, divorced. Michigan guy. Lifelong PJ fanatic, to understate the obvious. I'm the guy to the right in my profile pic. Not really expecting anything out of this post, but might be cool to at least say hello to some PJ fans.

cheers
