If not, I'm not going to sweat it.<br /><br />-- SarahSarah Marchildonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17604609825576716332noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8646612.post-1103181369080278332004-12-15T23:16:00.000-08:002004-12-15T23:16:00.000-08:00Check out the NYT story 'E-Dating Bubble Springs a...Check out the NYT story 'E-Dating Bubble Springs a Leak' (Dec. 12 - note: available for free until Dec. 18; must be registered with nytimes.com).<br /><br />URL: http://www.nytimes.com/2004/12/12/fashion/12DATE.html<br /><br />I tried LL myself. Dated one woman for a while, met some nice people but felt no 'click,' had a few excruciating evenings and ran into one wacko -- which outperforms the real world, come to think of it. :)<br /><br />What I found was you can't predict chemistry from either e-mail or even the phone. In one case, I got on famously by e-mail with one woman, but when we approached on the street, I almost immediately thought, "Oh oh: This isn't going to work."<br /><br />Ultimately, I found the consumerist aspect of it to be a drag. People think they'll be able to grab a relationship off the shelf the way they would a can of peas in a supermarket. Life ain't like that.<br /><br />Bill D.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8646612.post-1103169028451623912004-12-15T19:50:00.000-08:002004-12-15T19:50:00.000-08:00Trying to figure out the secret is the fun part!

Though not really so secret because I know who you are, Tamara.<br /><br />I wish I really did have a secret admirer. That would be so cool!<br /><br />SarahSarah Marchildonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17604609825576716332noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8646612.post-1103042853724657592004-12-14T08:47:00.000-08:002004-12-14T08:47:00.000-08:00Sarah, this one made me smile a lot and even get a...Sarah, this one made me smile a lot and even get a tear in my eye. When you do get the guy (and you will) he will be incredibly lucky. I as always, wish you the very best.
