The society in which we live in today means its easier to email and facebook people than it is to pick up the phone or go visit. So in today's world how is a girl to find a man?
The traditional routes of 'hitting the town', set ups from friends, joining a gym (ehm who wants to go to the gym face full of make-up? and looking good in gym gear...not me for one! I am there to work out!) / course or even through work are all well and good but where do you go if all else fails...the internet. We use it most days and if in doubt we turn to our trusted friend google lol.
So in this day and age can we just 'Google a man'?
So in the name of research (ahem) I have joined a dating site (this is not my first flurry to the dark side). It is a free one and quite popular among the young uns so with my laptop at the ready I typed up my profile (witty, clever and slightly cheeky), attached a recent picture and waited for the emails to come..and boy did they...from every Tom, Dick and Harry. Some were brief (hi...there was it no puctuation or even a do you want to chat), some were long and slushy (ehm you dont know me so stop declaring your undying love) and some were without pictures (if i can attach a picture then so can you matey). So it's been a case of reply to some and delete some.
It's been a week since i joined...and i've had a few dates. While I'm not looking for a knight on a white horse, the idea of meeting someone i get on with would be good. So who knows what this might bring...(all in the name of research of course ;p)
