    Years!!! YEARS.......I tell you!! Married Men? yeah, they seem to flock to me......... :(

    I only usually meet women
    So the men I meet are their boyfriends/husbands.
    And honestly, I'm never very impressed with any of the men I meet, available or taken.

    That's why I've stopped with match.com- I'm still not that impressed, but I end up dating them anyway (not my last boyfriend, he is a great person and we are still friends)

    I gutta say though, eharmony is freaking creepy. I took the "personality test" because they offered it free once...all they ask you about is religion. and all the guys on there just want to get married NOW. it's like for people who are watching the clock going shit, I'm supposed to be married by now.

    Definitely true. I finally figured out why they all want to get married - they're looking for a freakin mother for their kids!!

    We tried.......we really did, over 5 years ago. I couldn't do it and neither could he. We're still wonderful friends ( i know the dumb cliche ).
    My heart always thinks of him first.

    That's him and I and the gorgeous pink roses he brought me when he picked me up at the airport.

    One of the best weekends of my life...............Yes, bittersweet it is.


    (I kinda resent that "some-other"........lol)

    "I hope you're not Pearl Jam-ming it in anyway"
    -he know's me well :D

    well thats good. I'm glad you guys still have that. I always hate to hear people that have these really messy or hateful relationships with their exes. Ive been fortunate in that department

    where were all you "hotty home-wreckers" when I was married?

    give a listen to Dave matthews Band's "Say Goodbye" for the lesson learned..

    My experience with Match so far, is that there is a reason these people, including myself are PAYING to find a date. (My reason being I'm pretty shy)

    from an average Guy on Match.com to most Women

    1) If you sorta look like a guy..we are not going to date you.

    2) If we can't figure out which girl you are in your pictures that have group photos, we know you are not the 'hot" ones..

    3) If all of your photos are from the neck up.. we are not going to ask what the rest looks like..

    4) If you post a list of complaints about who you are "not looking for".. we are not going to date you.. hello! you are already nagging us!

    5) We don't like profiles that describe your "ideal man"... "about my date.. you cook, clean, are in perfect shape, give to the poor, and are wealthy"... its like you are placing an order for take-out!

    6) Give up on the "perfectly comfortable in a black dress or jeans"... overdone... nuf said

    7) Don't tell us how great a relationship you have with your ex... You may want to hide the fact that we may be a "rebound" thing..

    8) Don't brag so much about how many "winks" you are overwhemled with and won't respond to.. If the phone doesn't wink, you know its us.. moving on Ms. Conceited!

    9) All posters named "Red Sox girls" (or insert your local team here) we're not buying it... putting a red sox hat on in your photo is the oldest trick in the Matchbook.

    10) If all your photos have you wearing sunglasses.. call me when you get out of rehab!

    (Feel free to add to this list!)

    this is funny!

    #11: Please don't pictures of you with your kids. Or just your kids. They really shouldn't be on an internet dating website. It's creepy.

    #12: Guys, the obligatory picture of you at either Fenway or with the Red Sox Series trophy is another overdone cliche.

    #13: Okay sorry but, seriously. Seriously. Put your shirt ON. I just don't want to see it. Yet.

    #14 That picture of you holding up the dead fish is not a turn on.
    When you're married, you'll understand the importance of fresh produce.
