Ha. I filled out one of those websites for match making.  I think it was match.com.  After reading a few of the people on there I have come to the realisation they really really really need one for Anime/Manga fans  :)

Seriously. Just after my break up, I was bummed and started surfing around for those sites just to check options. After about ten minutes I realized that there was no one interesting there.

It's like... Where's the nerd dating service now adays? o_O

Someone should start one. It could be called like

"Anglebracket Three", or something.

I could see it the picture that you put on the site has to be a cosplay picture  :o

That would be rad.

You don't need a dating service, you can always find interesting people on forums, at con events, etc

Oh I was just bored and saw an ad and thought to take a look.  Like Greyman had said there just wasn't anybody with my hobbies on there.  Plus I have always found that when I search for love it always goes wrong but when it just happens it works out a lot better.

Agreed. Unforunetely, having it 'just happen' takes a lot longer... But it's generally stronger.

Ha ha.  Filled it out but don't expect much.  Though it proves that you can find just about anything on the web.  Now if I could just bump into somebody at Kumoricon.  Hehehe.  Oh well anyways.  :oops:
