eHarmony

Does eHarmony work?  I have a lot of single friends on it.  I know one couple that got married from it.  That's about it.  Saw this article about eHarmony...  Does their algorithm work?  Like OkC, a lot of the questions are answered by the users.  So, let's say a guy believes he's adventurous, but he's really not.  That would impact the compatibility factor, wouldn't it?   However, eHarmony does expose users to a wide range of people you know are single (and basics, such as, age, city, etc), that probably wouldn't happen on your standard Friday night barhopping excursion.

Memorial Day

I've completely forgotten what I've named him, but this guy likes to text me on every holiday...he struck again last night.  I haven't talked to him in at least 12 months, probably more like 18 months.

Decided The Brain doesn't deserve any of my time/attention until he does something substantial (like actually ask me out and set a date vs just texting me to see how I am doing; that's just a waste of a text).

Friends And Significant Others

I want my friends to be happy; if having a significant other makes them happy, great.  I must say, when more of my friends are single vs paired up, I don't feel as much pressure to be paired up.  If I didn't have coupled up friends, would I want to find a guy?  The answer is not a strong "Yes." 

Topping This

Unfortunately, I've been giving The Brain some thought.  He's always trying to top this (find a cooler girl than me), fails, and comes around my way.  Yes there are two sides to this:

1. I can be flattered because he always comes around my way
2. I can be annoyed because this has gone on for YEARS and that would imply he thinks I am just okay if he thinks he can top this and fails

I really want to stop thinking about this stuff (usually happens right after I see him, otherwise, out of sight, out of mind) and "go with the flow."  It's not like I am putting my life on hold waiting for him, but I also haven't met any spectacular new guys.

Puzzled

Saw The Brain last night.  Every time I see him, I end up a little puzzled.  What do I want from him?  Do I think he's grown up enough to be good boyfriend/husband material?  Is he someone who I could be happy with if we got back together?  Do I think all these things because he is a fun friend to hang out with and confuse it with something more?

Then other ridiculous thoughts enter my mind, such as, what does he want from me?  That is a pss poor question to ask because what he wants from me does not matter!  I need to figure what I want from him first!

What?

The Brain emailed me on OkC today (which I found to be odd since he has my phone number and my real email address). 

And, Smart Guy texted me AGAIN.  I haven't responded to any of his texts since 2012.

Is there something in the air?

And Again

And again, The Brain texted me an invite to do something with no date or time.  So, no point in responding, but I probably will say, "Okay" and nothing else.  I know my response is most likely infuriating and I don't care.
