Except for a tiny bit of traipsing around, I have lived in Southern California all my life. My Internet profile says that I am willing to be 'matched' with someone who is 50 to 60 miles away from where I live. No big deal right?
In my opinion after living here all my life, I should not read the name of a man's town and respond, "What? Where?" I've never heard of some of these places! And you know why?? Because they are no where near civilization or actually even in this state!
The Internet sites call this 'flexible matching'. I call it ludicrous! Meeting at Starbucks for a latte is out of the question with these 'matches' not only because they are too far away, but because there are no Starbucks in these towns, if there is actually a town at all. If I want to date someone far away, at least I'll pick someone who lives in someplace I want to go.
Lola
- Ellen
- Southern California, United States
- Lola - no not my 'given' name. This is my "Starbucks" name. For some reason they are unable to manage my simple name, so my aka has become 'Lola'. It is very handy. Although, I may have a creative streak. All the stories are true, even I could not make this stuff up. Other than a few faithful friends, I actually never know when and/or if anyone is reading this stuff. Feel free to drop us a line once in awhile and let me know, that perhaps we are not alone! :}
