Going through some Mutual Match candidates this morning, it struck me that there are some reasonably local people (I have my settings at 250 miles) with really attractive pics. I have always noticed a few trickling through, now and then, but lately it seems like there are more than usual.

The problem is, the MM screen always includes at least a portion of the profile text, and this is pretty much a sure bet to be a disappointment. Most of these profiles are less interesting than the Op-Ed page of Napkin Folder's Monthly; meaning no disrespect to the napkin people, but come on, already....

Beautiful & interesting at the same time? Is that possible? I've run into that....but very rarely....another entry for the Endangered Species List....

It's no secret that finding someone local is next to impossible, but those napkin people can be fun!!

Try handsom, interesting and not a freak of nature.... You think you have it bad?

Nope, no locals I've been interested in.

well... im nether.. so guess im twice as bad!
lol

Nah, but you're 897,000 miles away, so you don't qualify as a "local"!

Must of came across mine.

Well, yeah....but I wasn't going to say anything....!!

How did mine get in there? I am over 250 miles....

I think I have within 100 miles on mine, and I don't think I've gotten a mutual match that hasn't been hundreds of miles away. Wierd. I currently have that "One of your buddies in Sioux Falls has a crush on you" flashing at me. I've never clicked on that, but what's up with that? Sorry, I know that wasn't the topic .

As always, you're the exception that proves the rule....



Beautiful, both inside and out, and your writing is ALWAYS interesting, too....

I find it odd that I never have any compunctions sharing e-mails with you, Lex. I mean mine that I write to others. Not writing to you... Shouldn't I be embarrassed or think they are private?

And thank you, you know I adore you too. I might get a job at a grocery store....

I clicked on one of those once, out of curiosity -- "One of your friends in Voldiliosta has a crush on you." I don't know anybody in Voldiliosta, or even how to pronounce it, so it's unlikely I have a friend there.

Turned out it's just an ad for another site, and they don't really know any of my friends....

OK, so lets say you pick you want them to be beautiful. You meet and stare at them (never saying a word past hi), well beyond the point of uncomfortable, and I'm sure they will get interesting real quick.

You don't know Lex.

Jeez, Lily, you nailed THAT one!

I'm not just another pretty face you know....I'm highly perceptive of people. Moreso than I am given credit.

I understand your pain. Everyone who e-mails me are like 300 miles away. So sad when gas prices are chewing a hole in my purse.

A lot of people tell me I'm like a doctor to them -- what with the confidentiality, the big needles and the rubber gloves and everything, I guess.

A grocery store job would be a bit of a downturn for you, but you never know....!!

I kind of like doctors, myself. Knowledge of anatomy, smart, a bit arrogant (depending on specialty).... did I mention knowledge of anatomy?
