Yes, I Do Online Dating



The faces people make at me when I tell them I do online dating is mind boggling to me. They scrunch up their nose, crinkle their inner eye brows looking like they just ate and handful of sour patch kids and say, “you do online dating? Why would you want to do that?” Yes my people stuck in the 19th century, I do online dating. I mean, why wouldn't I?

I can literally sit at my house on a Wednesday night and pick up chicks by clicking a mouse. Why Joe Blow spends $80 at the bar I have my feet propped up on a couch watching the Sox game setting up a date for the weekend for free in my sweatpants. What guy in their right mind wouldn’t sign up for that? You can simultaneously watch Big Papi hit home runs and flirt with Jenny_617 from Quincy all from the comfort of your own home. I still don’t understand how some single people think online dating is taboo.

“Well, aren’t there a lot of strange people online that lie in their profiles?” I hate to break it to ya, but that’s life. You don’t think there are a bunch of strange people chilling at any bar or establishment that you try to meet other singles at? You come across just as many “strange” or “weird” people online than you would come across in public.

Single people out there, stop using the excuse that there are creepers online for your reason to not embrace the 21st century style of dating. Online dating is here for good and it’s not going anywhere anytime soon. I suggest you get with the times and join the world of online dating. You can meet other single people you normally would never cross paths with. Who knows, one of those people you meet could be the person you spend the rest of your life with. I wouldn’t let a few odd balls online prevent you from having a successful single life. In later blogs we’ll talk about how to avoid these people and not go on any bad dates. Until then, throw on your sweatpants turn on the tv and grab your mouse. It’s time to find a date.
