it's
not the "meeting someone online" that bugs me, it's that it matches you
with someone "based on the 37-some-odd dimensions...."
Why would you want that?
Kinda sounds like a lab rat, and here's your compatible lab rat.
where's the risk? where is the magic that makes you learn from someone?
Ok kids, here's how you're supposed to live...in America at least,
1. Born
2. Elementary School
3. Junior High School
4. High School
(make sure to participate in Scouts and various athletics)
5. College
6. Marriage
7. Kids
8. Retirement
9. Death
It was somewhere between college and marriage that I said - FUCK THIS SHIT, I'M GONNA GO HAVE SOME FUN.
and I went off and found myself - totally liberating, and yada, yada, yada....I see life completely different.
BUT.
Truthfully,
I can't deviate from that pattern completely. I am thankful for many
of the things I got growing up. I think church was a good way to
protect me from bad choices in my youth. Athletics kept me in shape.
Education is by fair the most important. Because I stayed pretty
sheltered, I think my life as an adult is much easier than it would
have been if I had been rebellious when i was a teenager. I do all my
rebellion now...responsibly...well, most of the time. 
So, my point is..
if
I'm gonna stay the pattern that most of Americans and much the world
has, I want to do it my way. I don't want someone "matched" to me. I
don't want much of status quo. I want to stumble around and slam into
someone that I am lucky to meet.
just call me Forrest. Forrest Gump.
