I've heard it all:"When you're not looking, Mr. Right will show up."
"Seek and ye shall find."
"When one door closes another will open."
But when does one finally take responsibility for her own happiness? In my search for Mr. Right and Mr. Better than the Previous Ones, I've found that taking advice from friends, family and even myself, just doesn't cut it.
That is why I'm writing this blog, to chronicle my dating adventures. As a co-organizer of social events across metro Detroit, I think this blog will be helpful for me and the many singles out there trying to find love.
For me, all roads led to hiring a professional matchmaking service. After watching epsiodes of "Matched in Manhattan" and "Millionaire Matchmaker," I thought I'd give it a shot here in the Detroit metro area. I never thought it'd come to this but I'm taking a chance.
Why not!
Corporations seeking qualified employees hire recruiters. Does anyone tell them to just sit back and wait patiently until a hard-working, dedicated and skilled candidate magically appears at their office suite? Of course not.
I'm taking the same approach as a corporation. I am a 30-year-old single woman seeking a qualified man 28-40. What are the qualifications? I'm happy you asked:
- Single
- Educated
- Ambitious
- Good sense of humor
- Open minded
- Attractive
- Non smoker, non substance abuser
This generic description is one in which thousands of single ladies can probably endorse. It's just an abbreviated list of qualities I'm looking for in a potential mate. Let's see if my matchmaker can help me scout out a good one!
Which matchmaking company are you using?
ReplyDeleteI will reveal that information once I've gone on the first date! Don't want to give them props just yet. I have to receive my intro letter and turn in my "first date cheque." It'll be interesting.
