A dating project

When two gals meet eHarmony…

This is what happens when I say “never.” August 1, 2007

Hi, my name is Megan, and I recently decided to throw off all my inhibitions and sign up for eHarmony.  I’ve long been that girl who has sworn never to do internet dating “never, ever, ever, no thanks, never” but yet, here I am.  With the heavy encouragement of a few friends, the fact that everyone I know is either seriously dating or newly married and my own introspection, envisioning the cold and lonely future of an old maid, I decided to take the plunge.  Getting a 60% off code for 3 months of eHarmony in my inbox finally sealed the deal.

I chose eHarmony because of that deal.  Sometime last fall I filled out the free personality profile at a time in my life that I had nothing but time on my hands and was one of the seemingly few who was not rejected from the service.  This instantly began filling my inbox with discount offers which I quickly deleted lest someone see an email for eHarmony over my shoulder in a public place.  Something about the idea of internet dating just sounded sour to me, like I was finally admitting defeat in the “normal” dating world.  Heck, I don’t even like being seen holding a dating book at Barnes&Noble.  But I can see God doing something in my life and have decided to make some “personal growth steps” and see where this goes.  Anyways, it’s only 3 months until the price skyrockets and I cancel my subscription.  :-)

Here’s to a 3 month adventure!
