I’m a Matchmaker

Seriously I have succeeded in an unplanned new path! No, I’m not trying to trap a guy by getting pregnant. That’s not my thing. Mainly because my tummy is flat and I’d hate to stretch it out again.
I officially stand at a 100% success rate for successfully setting up people. I’m a matchmaker. I’m a human love connector. That shit deserves an award. ONE HUNDRED PERCENT PEOPLE! That’s epic.
Let me share a specific story to illustrate my success.
My dear friend (and waxer) was single 3 years ago. So was a guy I worked with. Both had been in other relationships prior. And I’d had known both for many years before that.
One day I had a brilliant idea. I’d set them up.
So we did it. Sight unseen. They both agreed to meet for a cocktail. I agreed to join them with another decoy…the boy’s best friend.
That was July 3rd, 2007.
Soon it will be July 3rd, 2010. And guess who will be getting married that day? They will. Adorable, right?
Here’s my secret. I only set up people who will hit it off for the long haul. And by people, I mean two very specific people. SO WHAT that this is the only couple I’ve ever set up! It worked. And I’m taking all the credit.
Maybe I’ll get a free wax job out of this. Do they call those things wax jobs? Boy does that sound like something worse.

I totally need your matchmaking skills (read as: I’ve been single for 9 years now. And no, the 9 was not a typo….unfortunately).
