Back in the dating game....

I received a 'Kiss' the other day in the online dating world. He seemed nice so I sent one back. In the 4 days since then there have been over 50 emails back and forth (it seems we both have email enabled phones.....)

Online dating is a seriously weird operation. You make judgements about people based on a couple of photos and about 2000 words (max). Then you send disembodied messages and emails for a while until you feel comfortable enough to meet them. In my experience, you meet them and in about 90% of cases you work out that you really don't have any connection - regardless of the amount of disembodied communication you have had.

We are meeting for a beer this weekend. It should be interesting to see if he is the 90 or the 10%.

    Kissing via email *IS* more hygienic.
