When I first signed up for the Matchmaking service, I didn’t have a lot of preconceived notions. I had only heard of one person who had used one and even in entertainment, it’s not that common. Since then, though, I have heard some different things and even felt different emotions when it comes to Matchmakers. […]
When I was in college, I had a professor say that it was harder to meet guys out of college than it was during. As I didn’t really have that much luck in college, I was both skeptical of the statement and praying that it wasn’t true. Now that I have been out of college […]
When it comes to finding the one, there can be a number of different avenues to choose. Do you meet him in a bar? Does a friend introduce you? Do you take the leap and join an online dating site? Or what about hiring a Matchmaker? It’s hard to know which will be successful and […]
Before I first started using online dating, there were a few common misconceptions that kept me from taking the plunge and signing up. But then it seemed like everybody was talking about it and trying to convince me that I should use it, because you know they knew such and such a couple who had […]

If you’ve read Misadventures in “Talking,” you might have noticed that I’m not very good at spotting the signs. Or probably more accurately, I’m guilty of over analyzing situations and reading into “signs” that are generally not real. Unfortunately google doesn’t help. I can look up anything that I might think is a sign and […]
I haven’t always enjoyed being single and to be completely honest, I still find myself struggling with it at times. The most important thing, though, is to not wait to live. There are some things that I’ve done that I anguished over because I had thought that I needed to be married to do and […]
As I mentioned in the post about my blind date, I had fantasies about what it would be like to go on a blind date. Those were completely wrong, so I thought that I would illustrate the differences between my fantasy and the actual reality of my blind date. Everyone you know will want to […]
The older that I get, I guess the less idealistic I become. When I was younger, I thought that I knew exactly what I wanted in a guy and I had a very specific non-negotiables list. Now, the list isn’t as long and probably more meaningful or at least realistic. Obviously what is important to […]
