Lucky me...way to buy a car AND get a man!
Being in the midst of looking for a car online, I started thinking about the similarity in the process of how to get a man through online matchmaking services.
Online dating wasn’t as widely used sixteen years ago when I was “on the market”, but the comparison with my car search gave me a real sense of how overwhelming the process can be today.

The sorting process is confusing and distressing with so many factors to consider, especially if it’s a used car. Even though you might like the brand, model, and age of the car, you really don’t know for sure how comfortable it’s going to be on a long drive,if there are any hidden defects, or if it’s going to cost you too much in the long run with ongoing problems. Sounds like a man search to me!

but THE GUY you want to spend the rest of your life with. Welcome to the information age! You can do your own sleuthing and learn just about anything you want to know on the Internet. Now since you’re reading this blog post, I’m assuming you have a modicum of technical ability online.
Let’s start with the basics: Internet research.
So you have a first date set up and you don’t know too much about the man in question.

I really want to find my soulmate
I just finished reading Patty Stanger’s book called Become Your Own Matchmaker.
Stanger is best known as the Millionaire Matchmaker with a popular television show by that name. While her TV persona is somewhat brazen and raunchy, she comes off more empathetic and kinder in her book. I think she’s pretty sharp and gives great advice to women who come to her with the recurrent request to help me find my soulmate.
Stanger has good suggestions for places to seek out the coveted soulmate,
some of which are highlighted below. I can only give you part of the list without her permission. (more…)
