Roommate: I'd rather be crazy and interesting. I’d rather crazy and interesting, than sane and dull. Roommate: Well, to eharmony, crazy and artist are the same thing. Susan: That’s not because you’re crazy, that’s because you’re an artist. They said some of my answers were contradictory. This time I asked my roommate how she knew they rejected people they thought were “crazy.” How sad is that, to flip back every few months and see that no one wants Mister Right? I never got more than four words out of him. Men with handles like ShiningArmor, Heart4JesusNYou, MisterRight. Not only the men from months before, I recognized men I'd seen them at every singles group in Southern California for the last 15 years.

In those ten free days I saw the same guys on line. Several month later, Christian Café sent me ten free days to try to get me to come back. He worked at the White Castle on I-85? Hey, can I read you my screenplay? He seemed fun, but in our first phone call, he talked about his friends like I already knew them.įilm: Charlie's having a hard time because Thelma just died.įilm: My college roommate.
Then I got an email from some church boy who worked in film. "Hi I'm Skippy, do you like iguanas?" I had to hold a conversation with the kid for seven minutes. Five seconds into our first phone call, puts his 8-year-old son on the line. Finally I got matched with this Christian man who owned a vending machine company. But all the church boys had NO mojo WHATSOEVER. At best, the guy says, "that's great for you." And doing the spiritual life alone got really lonely. I already tried dating men outside my faith. But none of them shared my religious faith. Lots of interesting, successful, men with mojo. Then a woman instant-messaged me because she was going through a crisis and needed a "Christian sister" to talk to. Who emailed me? Men in drag, magician outfits, a guy who looked like Santa Claus on a bender. Then I tried this internet dating site another friend told me about, called Christian Café.
Now, whenever I see those perky couples on eHarmony ads? I think to myself, they're shallow. If you're honest, you'd be a liar NOT to answer yes. Or, Does life sometimes seem meaningless?Įven if you're not going through a heart-wrenching breakup. My roommate said eHarmony rejected a percentage to weed out "crazy people."Īlright, so maybe it was the way I answered some of the questions. As if being 41 and still single didn't tell me that already? That's because you're unique, a friend comforted me. eHarmony REJECTED ME! Come on, I didn't get even ONE of the 24 dimensions right? So, 45 minutes and 100s of questions later, identified my 24-dimensional personality. What if I'd like to spend a week night alone with a black man? Dimensions being a new way to market the human character. I started by taking the eHarmony personality profile which matches you to, as they put it: a highly select group with whom you share things like character, intellect, passion. Why not just try internet dating? At least I'll be able to see who's out there. Mail-order brides, ex-nuns with facial hair, obese IT nerds who live alternate lives online as robo-cut Japanese animé heroes.īut today we do so much over the internet: banking, shopping, heck these days I prefer email to talking on the phone. I tried internet dating.įive years ago, internet dating felt like a realm reserved for the desperate. So I did something I swore I would never do. It had been five months since we broke up, and he managed to meet someone the following week. Two and a half years ago, I decided I needed to get over my ex. How do you get rejected by eharmony? Start by telling the truth
