This is a non-bitter "My membership is expired" post

So today was the last day of my three month eH subscription. I went back and forth on whether or not to resubscribe - and I may come back again - but the quality and quantity of matches I was recieving was going down, and my life is only getting busier. I signed up in January somewhat as a New Year's Resolution, and partially because, once again, I'd jokingly listed "a boy" on my birthday/Christmas wishlist (my birthday being around Christmas), and not only did I not recieve one, I was reminded by a friend that for my 25th birthday, I really should have been asking for a man , and not a boy .

So I was determined to go out and find a man for myself.

Even though it would appear I'm walking away from the experience with little to show from it - I only made it to OC with two men, and only one of those made it past a few emails and the one that did last was a LD match that I've given up on - I still feel like it was a good experience. It opened my eyes to the idea that I can get out there and put myself forward, and that while I may not have every man on the block tripping over themselves to date me, well, those probably aren't the ones I want anyhow. As for the ones I do want... well, I think I've learned that I could just be what they want as well.

Now, lesson number two, how to reel in the ones who have shown interest without turning beet red and getting all tongue-tied...
