HAPPY BIRTHDAY VELVET!!!!
I have temporarily disabled my OKCupid account. (Don’t worry – I have another – the Cat Lady Chronicles shall continue.) This was done in a panic after seeing a far too familiar face pop up as a match for myself.. My ex-boyfriend’s brother. Apparently we are a pretty strong match, which is pretty hilarious because.. No, we are not a strong match at all.
But – I did not want him clicking on my page and seeing what I had to write about myself. This is my actual page. The sad part is – if for any reason he has “anonymous viewing” turned on – he may have already seen it. Disabling my account did two things for me. 1) If he hasn’t seen it – he won’t. 2) If I am just that lucky that he DID see it, he may notice it’s gone, and word may travel around a family that I once was a part of that I could be seeing someone. Although I am keeping my fingers crossed it’s option #1.
But – until it’s safe to return to OKCupid, I have a few things going for me. Super hot POF guy appears as though he wants to meet me.. which will be a good lesson for me in trying not to overdo the awkward. And I fully plan to at least give a random high five to a cute guy who, like me, takes a morning walk around the business complex in which I work, usually around the same time I do. (Despite being awkward on dates, I am really amazing at initiating conversation with strangers..)
..I need a drink..
I refused to have my OKC profile set to my home state for that reason. Luckily, since I first got on OKC, I was only ever home for 1-3 weeks at a time. But for awhile I was looking at jobs near home, and I decided I would delete my profile if I moved back. I had no desire for anyone to know i was trying online dating unless I myself told them.

Funny, I got an email from OKCupid. They sent me a message saying that they knew I was in a happy relationship, and happy birthday. I thought that was pretty awesome! 🙂
