OK, I figured it out. Today I read a bunch of women’s profiles on a couple of online dating sites and I realized that I don’t know one guy who fits any of those profile. Oh, I’m sure they must exist somewhere and I know some guys who meet the physical requirements, but those guys are going out with each other, if you know what I mean.

I’ve also spent the past couple of days filling out all sorts of surveys on okcupid. What I found out is that I’m quite boring, good at spelling, and not as smart as I thought. Well, not smart according to the tests people publish (and let me tell you, some of those people couldn’t spell properly even if their lives depended on it.)

So where does that leave me? Where does that leave any of my single friends?

I suppose I should lower my own standards, but that would mean I’d be disinterested soon enough. I’m not a guy who can fool anyone, and I’m not a guy who can lie. I even have a hard time compromising most times. So I think I’ll get off this failed dating kick and go back to surfing the web for ham radio-type stuff.

Oh, and by the way, I was at the ham radio meeting today and, as the treasurer, I wrote checks for about a thousand dollars. If only that were enough to make me feel fulfilled. 🙂
