Back in 2006, I joined a Denver-based dating service called The Right One. I'm sure I've talked about this before, but I was signed up for the service's top level ($8,000) when I wanted the middle level ($5,600.) The service refused to change it or refund my money when I complained.
In late-2010 or early-2011, I asked to have my account put on hold temporarily since my lack of work and money made it impossible to take a date anywhere.
Last week, I called the service to resume using my account. The company has closed its offices and changed its name to "E-Love." Unfortunately, my old account is not valid with the new company.
There is a new dating service in the old one's office (but unrelated to the old one) called Great Expectations. They also have a Colorado Springs office where I signed up. The staff member offered me the $1,295 student rate (for being a "student of life") since I couldn't afford the regular $6,500+ rate and also said I could make monthly payments for three years. Unfortunately, I got a call from the staff member today saying her supervisors wouldn't allow me to use the student rate. At least I got rejected before giving them any money.
I do have online accounts with FurryMate.com and Pounced.org. Even though I'm probably too old for people on there, I hope I can find someone on there. So far, there's no one local who's close to my age on either site.
I attended yet another "cattle call" job interview today. Alorica, a call center who repeatedly rejected me when it was known as PRC and Ryla, is under new management. I think the interview went well, but I also thought others went well until I got rejected.
