Throw Some "D"’s On It?
Just when I thought I’d seen and heard it all…
A few weeks ago, during the ever-coveted May sweeps, BFam (that’s the hubby to you newbies) and I were glued to the set watching yet another riveting episode of ‘Heroes’ (awesome television, let me tell you). Typically, we watch all our regularly scheduled programming on our DVR. ‘Heroes’ is not one of those shows we like to wait to watch. It’s just so good we’re willing to suffer through ad after ad. Somewhere in the mix of being bored to tears and trying not to fall asleep, a commercial was shown that I thought was a joke at first…
I’m still thinking this is a joke. Is there really a site out there for gay people to make matches? And, what’s this whole thing with being rejected by eHarmony? I have friends who went through that piece of crap service. It ain’t all that great. One friend was hooked up with a married man. He may have neglected to tell eHarmony he was married at the time of setting up his profile. Some of my friends have used Match.com, too. Same crap, different service. Gay people should not be complaining about these stupid match making sites. They’re all a sham.
After seeing the first commercial, I still laughed it off. Then, I saw another one…
OK, this one is not even about being gay. This girl was just rejected for not being nice. Wait… Hold on…
What’s the deal with THIS dude, other than the fact that he looks like Dave Chappelle’s younger brother? I’m so confused right now. Why’d HE get rejected? Is he a not-nice-gay person? I’ve heard of getting a loan rejected because your credit is jacked up… but, c’mon!
So, what the blood-clot is going on over at eHarmony? I’m either extremely lucky because I’m married and don’t have to deal with crap like this, or I’m completely out of touch. eHarmony? Discriminating? What’s the basis?
If my husband ever decides to leave me, I think I’m going to have to kill him. I can’t go back out in the dating world with mess like this going on.
Okay…when I heard about the lady sueing EHarmony, I was reminded of the section on the site of ‘most asked questions’ directed to the founder, “What’s his name”. He said that while they don’t discourage interracial dating, the problems with finding a proper match in love and life are complicated enough that the service does not encourage these kinds of matches. LOL I was registered for 3 months and got 3 African American matches. Everyone else was White. I wonder what that was about. I didn’t list a preference, and being an African American female, I wonder what would cause this phenomenon. It really didn’t matter to me, but with that last video…I’m beginning to wonder. They didn’t mind hooking me up with a married guy and even one whose profile kept changing physical, family, and residential information each time he meet someone. I’m just glad the membership fee was a gift.
