This is easy???

So a close guy friend of mine gets word that I've been on a date with a guy from EH. And he's flabbergasted..."That guy gets a date with you that easy?! That's crazy..."

And so of course, I get defensive. "It isn't easy to date online! You really have to put yourself out there!"

"Oh yeah, it's really hard to wade through the hundreds of profiles...it's like trolling while fishing." While i'm not EXACTLY sure what the fishing reference was supposed to mean, this guy got me thinking...

(and because this was mostly via IM, it all translates so well:).

  1. The first date with a guy from online may come "easy" well, easier than trying to get up the gumption to ask the girl you've been eyeing for weeks, but the second date for a guy you met online is the real doozy. Id venture a theory that the percentage of first dates that translate into a second date from online matchups is *much* smaller than the percentage of first dates that make it to a second date for someone you actually have known in real life...
