I’ve mentioned how little luck I have on match.com or anywhere else. My friend Megan who I am no longer listening to told me that she was mad at me because of my lame profile and how I should get on because she was dating every eligible man in the Bay area because of match.com. Well, I had three “new” emails waiting on match.com and so I paid the $30 to see what they were. (You can create a profile for free, but to read the email sent to you, you have to pay. It used to be you got to read them for free, but couldn’t send any replies without joining.)<\/p>\n

The emails were:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. A message from a woman who said she was from NC but in the email she says she’s from Rus_sia. The underscore is probably to get out of spam filters. Her profile appears to be deleted.<\/li>\n
  2. A message from a woman who said she was 24 and in MD, but who had her profile deleted. Probably for being a Nigerian dude looking for money.<\/li>\n
  3. A message from Megan.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    So I told match.com to cancel my account and I just paid $30 to get an abusive email from Megan when I can get abuse from her for free. It costs LESS to call Paris from a hotel in Boston, by the way. I deleted my account, submitted the information to my state attorney general, and called AMEX who said I’m screwed and out $30. Maybe once I stop being mad, I’ll take Megan out of my blocked email list, but I wonder how much that’ll end up costing me.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
