"Memories are designed to fade"
Feb 7, 2010
Ever do or think something that triggers just a glimmer of a memory? Not just the memory of something that happened, but even just a trace of how something made you feel or what you thought about something. Yet you can't grasp onto any specifics other than that little glimmer.
Just memories that you thought were long forgotten, but then spring up randomly from the depths of your subconscious. You twist your brain trying to figure out what the significance of the thought or feeling was or the details of the event...but everything but that little spark is still locked away.
What prompted this? Nothing special or sentimental, just a paper towel laying on my desk. Something came to the front of my mind as I reached for it, a recollection of thought I had had about something long ago. What it was about specifically...I couldn't place it. Even now, that little flicker of thought is gone, probably forever so I'll never really know.
**The title of this is the title of a song that really doesn't have much to do with this concept, but seems like a fitting title nonetheless.
Glad my joining has benefited someone :)

The first night I joined OkCupid back in October, I immediately found someone in my area with very similar interests as me. I sent him a message, and then we chatted intensely for about a week before meeting up at the mall one Friday night.
It went very well, but after hanging out a few more times I just didn't feel anything and let him know. He took it alright and said it'd be a shame not to still be friends and we continued to chat online.
One night my best friend was over at my house and he messaged me. She took over my computer and started chatting with him and eventually gave him her own screen name so they could chat again later.
Soon after they met up and instantly hit it off, a perfect match. It's been a little over two months and they are both extremely happy and I couldn't be happier for them! They are both wonderful people and I'm glad I could have a hand in them finding each other :)
My friend's take on Online Dating

"The issue with it (as we know) is the creepos and that
people can't help but get all choosy. For guys, it would be
like applying for jobs, and for girls, it would (mostly) feel like
being the employer and getting a bunch of terribly-written
resumes. And the qualified ones probably ending
up applying elsewhere."
