HOLY F***
Happy Tuesday! I received an email from Ron this morning. A portion of it:
"It sounds like you had a tiring day but an energizing one as well. Wouldn't it have been nice to have been met at the door when you came home with a kiss, hug, and a drink followed by an already prepared candle light dinner, followed by a full body massage and. . . . Just thinking of an alternative to returning after a long, hard day to a dark and empty house."
I'm thinking 2 things: 1, it's a little early in our "relationship" to be danging that carrot in front of me (so to speak!); and 2, I went home alone, but not to a dark & empty house -- I went to a home that is bright, vibrant, warm, peaceful and full of the love of my 4-legged & feathered children. I had a wonderful evening; alone but not lonely. :)
You know, there's always a question that NO one in your life has ever asked..... e-v-e-r...
"Just out of curiosity, what do you carry in your car? (HUNH?) I carry a lot of sports equipment in mine for volleyball, tennis, frizbee, and racquetball. Obviously the acoutrements of a jock extrovert. Right? But I didn't tell you about the tools, ropes, tarps, and fire extinguisher I also carry. Maybe I'm a pessimist and doomsayer who always expects things to turn out bad."
I'm warped, so my mind automatically says, well, yeah, sure, you're a boyscout & you like to be prepared and all... but wouldn't those items also come in handy if you were a serial killer and we were on a dark lonely stretch of road between here & Orlando? (Obviously I've seen too many Lifetime movies. Or was that the News?)
"I am a very gentle, kind, considerate, expathetic, compassionate, and easy-going person. You'll find yourself feeling very relaxed, comfortable, and accepted for who you are in my company."
What I'm feeling is the beginning of a hypnosis session..... Now, granted, this isn't the whole email. Just these excerpts do not relay the entire tone. Really.
WELL, either God has a crazy fucking wicked ass twisted sense of humor (he has to have peed his pants on this one), or I have reached a whole new level of being the most amazing manifesting motherfucker imaginable. Why?? Well, just a few hours later, this is the email I get:
Dear eHarmony Friend,
Making your eHarmony experience safe and successful is important to us. As a past or present user, we want to inform you that eHarmony has taken action to remove one of your matches, Ron from XXXXX, from the eHarmony service. This decision was made in accordance with our terms and conditions.

What the???? You're damn freakin' right I'm going to click on the freakin' links!!
Q: Why did I receive a match termination notification?
A: eH may determine that an acct should be closed based on routine monitoring & review of acct activity and/or info received regarding a member's acct or activity. If an acct is closed by eH for Terms & Conditions violations, eH will make every effort to notify any past or present customers matched to the users whose acct has been closed. If you have received a notification re a match's acct being closed, we strongly recommend that you discontinue any further communication with this match.
Q: What are the most common reasons for closing a match's acct?
A: The most common reason is a violation of eH's Terms & Conditions such as the misrepresentation of personal information (name, identity, address, age or marital status)
Q: Would this type of notif be sent if my match made the decision to close the acct themselves?
A: No, eH only sends this type of notif if the decision to close the acct was made by eH. If you have rec'd this notice, we can confirm that the acct closure was an eH decision & this action was not taken at the request of the match.
Q: I have been in communication with this person. Should I discontinue communication with this match?
A: As stated in the notification, we would like to reiterate that we strongly discourage any further communication with this match.
'kay. Decision time. Do I just stop communication with no explanation? Do I continue v-e-r-y slowly with emails only, wait until I spot a deal-breaker & then break it off? I don't want to ask him what the hell he did, because that just opens the door up for a bunch of explanations & excuses which actually could end up with a date on that long, dark, lonely road between here & Orlando..... Do I email him (thank god we didn't exchange #s yet) and tell him about the email from eH, and that I do not want to communicate any more? Shit. That sounds like the ADULT action to take. BUT I DON'T WAAAANNNNNNA BE A GROWNUP.... not in this situation anyway. What am I afraid of? That I'll hurt his feelings? We've never even talked or met! And, even though I don't know what it is exactly, he HAS misrepresented himself in a big enough way for eH to dump him. He must know that I've been notified, right? There are too many damn questions in my head right now. I just won't do anything until I sleep on it & the drunken monkeys in my head slow down.
