Let's see if I can make it through this entry without too many spelling errors. I seem to have a typing disorder today. In fact, ten points for every misspelled word you find, ok? Ok.
Meanwhile, there's me. I'm still guyless in the physical sense. However, and it would have remained forgotten had he not sent me an Icebreaker, some guy in Sugar with the handle, bgctryboy found my profile on Emode.com and he seems interested. If exchanging generic one liners that Emode lets you choose from constitutes interest...
Why haven't we emailed and gone beyond the now irritating Icebreakers? Because in order to email the person whose profile sparked your interest you have to pay and sign up for a subscription to Emode's newsletter. I'm not paying $19.95 for three months and it isn't looking like he will either. I don't know 'bout him, but I don't have the money nor the desire to look at something I have no interest in. As I told Heather earlier, "We keep circlin' the airport, but we will never land."
I tried a suggestion Heather gave me, sneaking my email in to my profile by some innocuous and devious method. Didn't work. They asked me to change it. So, we'll never land or go beyond these stupid Icebreakers. 1) One or the pair of us will either fly away because we're low on fuel (gave up and lost interest) or 2) neither one of us has the money or desire to give in to Emode. The chances we will land just before we crash because he bought a silly subscription because he's hooked and really interested are about 10,000 to 1.
It really irks me that such matchmaking sites make it nigh on impossible to just email one another to see if you really want continued contact with the person. 'Course, I know why they do it. Revenue. And the only reason I embarked on this "flight" is because Heather encouraged (twisted my arm actually *winks*) me with the line "What could it hurt? You may be the one to turn him to the gospel."
Uh huh. Sure looks like a smashing success so far.
I still stand by my original feeling. Whomever my eternal companion/soulmate is, I doubt very highly we'll meet through cyber connections. And right now, I'm doubting he's anywhere on this planet. For all I know, he may be waiting fer me on the other side. I just don't know, but it would be wonderful to feel his presence again, like I used to... Please, Father, let me feel him again. It was such a comfort.
