Tonight I got my very first text message from a dude on match.com. Taking Depeche Mode’s advice, I responded. Pretty sure that taking his advice made this the ONLY text message that I’ll receive from this dude.
- Match Dude: Hey, it’s [fake name]. Match.
- Me: Game. Set.
Hello? Anyone? Anyone?

Love it! Haha. No need to “beat around the bush”. Did he literally just say, “Hi, it’s [name]. Match.”?
Talk about building conversation momentum.
He did actually write that. Somewhat lame, but my reply would have made it uber super funny…had he seen fit to reply. -CS
Maybe he didn’t get it. You’re in Philly now? The men here are a bit dumb and not quick to get jokes or they take it as snarky. I did match for 2 years here and can’t say that I met anyone that was truly that with it.
Oh, goodness. Your text? Brilliance. His? Beyond lame. Who writes such a thing? Is it too much to say “Hi, my name is Jeff from match.com”? It is only a few more words.
See, if he’d gotten it, that would have been a good sign. That he didn’t – saves you time and him (we hope) money.
