I met my man on match.com.
After many years of being single and kissing a lot of toads, it seemed an unlikely place to find love. I was beginning to believe I was unlovable!
However, I work about a bizzillion hours a week, don't go out much, live in the boonies, don't go to church or other more conventional meeting places, so an online meeting was perfect for me in that it allowed me to respond at my own pace and in the safety of my own home. By the time we finally met in person, we realized we knew many of the same people. (Of course, I had done thorough Google searches and workplace inquiries on him before meeting him being the cautious person I am.)
As a writer, it was lots of fun to get to know someone this way, though Brian now confesses that he was always anxious about constructing grammatically correct e-mails to me. He's an engineer - totally left-brained (unlike me) and the contrasts work nicely together.
Of course, I have many funny online dating stories as well. I've written them all down for inclusion in a book about savvy dating after 40...someday...in my "spare" time.
