Getting Back to Online Dating While Grumbling

[1]Match.com just reeled me in. I hadn’t subscribed for a while, but they continued to send emails of potential matches. I’d occasionally glance at the profiles, only to be reminded of why I hate online dating. But home alone this Saturday night, I came across a profile that intrigued me. He was cute, seemed decent, we share political values and he’d just finished reading War & Peace. I winked (my only tool as a nonsubscriber). Sunday morning, I got an alert from Match that I “sparked someone’s interest.” My heart fluttered. And so I reregistered for 3 months, which will take me through the beginning of March and cover my annual New Year’s resolution to get back to online dating. Wouldn’t you know, not a word from War & Peace guy. Keep you posted.
