    You probably mean the other girl was a match and this one's a lighter?

    I thought finding your match meant you found someone who can beat you but now I cannot find any references to that?

    I wouldn't get overly excited yet, excited yes, overly no, you just met her today, tomorrow she might tell you of her boyfriend and you'll have to open a completely new thread about how to get rid of him.

    I don't know how many times I heared 'I have a boyfired.' (one time I said 'I don't mind'...but it didn't work). Anyway...perhaps I just am ugly or have bad breath. Make sure you bathe and floss your teeth! You'll probably be in like flint then!

    I'd still like to know whether "I was the best at tennis, but now I've found my match."
    can mean "I was the best at tennis, but now I met someone who can beat me at tennis."
    in addition to "I was the best at tennis, but now I am married and my wife has forbidden me to play and since I depend on her for love I have to obey" ?

    I know loads of British girls who like Metallica
    God, don't even start it. The only girls that like me listen to metal, mainly. This is a real conversation:

    She: "Ah, so you listen to The Band? That's awesome!"
    Me: "Uhhuh! Have you heard of them?"
    She: "Yeah, of course! My father listens to them...he's 60 ;D"
    Me: "..g-great, thanks"

    So whenever we talk about music, I just go on and on about CCR, The Band, The Who, BTO, Lynyrd Skynyrd, etc. I mean, I can't even pronounce all of those Finnish names. :_: Although we usually do share the love for folk music (although they don't all admire Huun Huur Tu the way I do).

    Yes it can. Though 'met' is more common than 'found'.

    That's great indeed.
    Now you know you have something to talk about with her dad.
