Just kidding, but seriously

[No image]

The other day I was riding around town with some friends and I can’t remember what sparked the conversation but we must have been talking about relationships because one of the persons in the car mentioned that they were on match.com.

I wasn’t completely sure how to take this at first so I didn’t say anything.  One of the other persons in the car laughed and said, “You’ve got to be kidding me”.  A third person quickly chimed in and said, “No, he’s on ‘match’ and I’m on ChristianSingles.net, but only because eHarmony rejected me.” 

Now, it seemed that this person was joking, but I couldn’t tell if the first person was joking or not.  The conversation went on for a little while. I can’t remember the particulars, but it didn’t clear up the joking bit.  Still, now as I write this I wonder if that person was serious or not.  Because I could see how that could be something you would joke about.  However, I can also see how if you were on there you would want people to think that it was because you wanted to joke about it, and not for real.

Regardless, the point of today’s post is this:  Make sure that when you joke, its obvious; otherwise some people might get the wrong impression.

Looking out for you,
