I think I tried it all

Yes, I am referring to the modern day dating vehicles - speed dating nights, online pages such as match.com, and even private service like It's Just Lunch.  My conclusion is there is no way for that perfect match through pure luck.  It was adverturous in that I meet people I would never have met or would even contemplate a conversation.

At the only speeddating event I went to several months ago, a man in his late 60's or 70 was very interested in me.  I was shocked that he was serious.  Sensing that I was not interested in him, he attempted to sacrifice himself as my teacher in all things I need to know about love.  He was imposing and just felt he was entitled to have me do as he say.  I promised him I'll be in touch with him, and I promised him I'll call him back.  I never did, and I don't feel a bit guilty about it. 

As for the dating websites, it's always a lot of chatter but I did not bother to actually set up a time to meet anyone.  The truth is, I am not interested in anyone I read about on those sites.

The one thing I have always been sure about is he will walk into my life, naturally.
