Online Dating: It's a Jungle Out There

Posted: Feb 01, 2011 |Comments: 0 |

Rita Mae Brown said, "Computer dating is fine, if you're a computer."  However, with all of the dating websites available, many people have signed on and hooked up with potential mates.

One site guarantees you'll meet someone special in six months.  Of course one could argue that the adjective "special" can go several ways.

Getting Started

After filling out an extensive questionnaire that the CIA would admire, uploading a photograph or two (of you, not some dreamboat or starlet) and punching in your credit card, your ready to go.  Be prepared for activity, or "nudges", "winks" and "waves".  At some point you might feel like an air traffic controller, but soon you'll be able to read between the lines and locate the ones you find intriguing. Beware of the phantom prince or princess.  These seemingly perfect people will lead you on with engaging, titillating emails…they'll drive you crazy thinking about how you must see them and spend time with them, so that the relationship can move to point B.  Sadly point B never comes, they vanish like the mist, because they are mist.  Understandably some people like to feel the sensation of what it's like to be pursued, for in the "real" world no one looks at them twice.

Where's the Magic?

There's no disputing that many people have found love online and have been able to take a relationship all the way to divorce court.  And there is definitely something to be said for matching two people with similar interests, goals and beliefs.  For while opposites do attract, they can eventually very easily repel.

It is a good idea to not rely solely on computer dating, get out in public, go to events, you never know, you might bump into someone the old fashioned way.
