Ready
for a heart-to-heart?
Fernando
Luera, Match.com
I suspect
that Cupid doesn’t have a sexual preference; that’s a
human quality. So when it comes to us gays and lesbians, I bet Cupid
is an equal opportunity matchmaker—just as likely to shoot
an arrow at us as anyone else. But somehow the arrow has missed
you so far, and you haven’t made that heart-to-heart connection
yet.
After
all that
You went to all the trouble of waxing and shaving and plucking your
unwanted hair. Or not. You did the manicure and the pedicure, the
facial and the body mudpack, the steam room and massage, the tanning
booth and sensory deprivation tank. Or not. You bought new clothes
and had the makeover. Or not. You changed your hairstyle and even
your hair color. Or not. You ate right, exercised and watched your
in-between-meal treats. Or not. The options are there anyway.
It’s
possible that your stars and planets weren’t in romantic alignment
during February 2002. Or perhaps your chi is blocked, or you’re
in karmic debt. You may be powerless against those forces, but one
thing’s for sure, your chances are better if you try a quick
search on Match.com.
Take
control
Remember that the world is your oyster! Your connection is out there
(or in here) somewhere; you know it is. With new thousands of new
people daily, maybe your match just joined, and it just so happens
that he or she lives one block too far to ever meet you at the local
bar.
Don’t
lose heart. You’ll need it when you meet someone and want to
share it. You’ll also want to share yourself emotionally and
intellectually—completely. Can you really hope to do that while
competing with loud music and drinking and dancing crowds?
Your
free
profile allows you lots of room for self-expression. It’s
your opportunity to be thoughtful, meaningful and profound. Don’t
be shy and don’t hold back. Someone’s looking for you,
too. Open up your heart.
Here’s
your chance to be completely truthful and honest—nothing to
lose and everything to gain.
