okCupid

I trust you sha’n’t be shocked to know that my social life is dead enough to drive me to sign up on a matchmaking website. It’s rather entertaining, actually.

I am amazed (and a wee bit dismayed) that only two or three of my top twenty matches are over thirty. And now it strikes me that the criterion questions don’t mention age. Not that I have any objection to squiring a lass of 19 summers, but if she has a problem with 25 years’ difference it would be good to know in advance.

The profiler says of me:

Compared to males his age:

• He’s more scientific
• He’s more mathematical
• He’s more capitalistic
• He’s more introverted
• He’s more independent
• He’s more progressive
• He’s more literary
