"He might not look like much kid, but he's got it where it counts."
And so it begins... After an all too long hiatus of living like a sheltered, half crazy hermit in my man cave I have decided to enter back into the world of mate-seeking. I'm fully healed and recovered from my time with "the-one-who-shall-not-be-named". It only took several years but what can I say? I am a slow healer and don't forget easily. I have a spring in my step, a permanently pasted cheezy grin on my face and a general aura that shines with possibility and adventure of meeting someone just as messed up and crazy as I am. But where to begin?
It's been a while since I've dated. I'm not going to say how long but let's just say the internet was still dominated by AOL and dial up modems. Internet dating was confined to chat rooms and only visited by thirteen year old girls and 37 year old boys. There was one reputable dating site and if you had a profile you might as well have tattooed a very large and dark L on your forehead. To my great relief, those days are gone and over and internet dating today is a booming billion dollar industry and is quite the norm.
Before beginning any adventure, be it taking a a vacation, going to a new restaurant, or online dating, I do some research into what to expect. My first stop was match.com. I felt like a diabetic kid locked inside Willy Wonka's factory. There were thousands of attractive women online in my age group and within driving distance who seemed they have the potential to be my next ex-girlfriend. I was immediately sold on this crazy interwebs dating thing. I couldn't get to bed that night as my thoughts were filled with all the beautiful, smart and funny women who soon would be begging and pleading for a chance to date the one and only me.
