Match.com strikes again.

Well, if you've been following this blog for any extended period of time, you would know that my last leap into match.com was around a yr ago, maybe less. I dont really remember. I havent touched the thing since I landed in Denver, but after talking with my mom, she convinced me to once again jump off the bridge of sanity and into the online dating pool.

I love/hate it. What happens is that I usually find a couple guys who are obviously intelligent, well-written, and attractive which also leads to them being most likely out of my league, so I tend to fuck with them through email correspondence. Well, this time, I'm on the side of getting fucked with but not in the way that is intentional.

I send this guy an email. He's all three of the aforementioned qualities. Like I'd friend the shit out of this guy and love him from afar. So I sent him an email that was something along those lines, saying we have alot in common blah-blah-blah. Within 20 min he writes back agreeing with me and "hahaha"ing my email. Then, like a pinprick to my heart, he hits me with this piece of info:

Looking over your profile I do agree that we have a lot in common, but the oddest thing is you look pretty much exactly like my little sister so that is what would weird me out the most...

And underneath this, he sends me a link to this picture:

REALLY? REALLY? We DO look exactly alike. Apparently, I have a long lost twin and it's this guy's sister. So he goes immediately into the lost cause section of my mental dude file, because if he was attracted to me, I'd be worried. And if he wasn't attracted to me, I'd be attracted to him.

This is the match.com hand that I've been dealt. To "hit on" guys and then have it thrown back in my face that I'm already pretty much their sibling. Unbelievable.

Fuck you, Match.com. I want my $26 back.
