According to the match.com commercials, 1 in 5 relationships today originate from online dating. 1 in 5? What is that – 20%? That’s not a high number.
Wait – I don’t even think 20% of my friends are in relationships. Maybe that is a high number after all.
But the idea of me having to pay you to introduce me to someone who may or may not like me is not one I’m fond of. It’s like going to a bar and not drinking. And I’m not fond of that idea either. Then this one day, my roommate told me about a site called okcupid.com. “It’s like match,” he says, “but it’s free.”
I’m sold.
