The Next Phase Of The Experiment

As my regular readers* know, a little while ago I began an experiment in internet dating. I posted a profile on Onion Personals, and did a search for women between 32 and 42** living in the DC area. I have respoded to a few profiles I saw online, mostly ones that had made me laugh. I have even recieved from messages from women responding to my profile. I have a somewhat regular email contact with a couple of these women, and two have even moved to private email.

So, on the prodding of Lucky Spinster, I actually screwed my courage to the sticking place, and asked one of these women out. We have a date for drinks and pool early next week.

Stay tuned.

*I get the feeling it is a small readership. But I am grateful for you all.
**In response to some criticism by the Multi-State, Girlie-Advising Posse, I decided to confine my search to women within five years of my age.

WHOA!!!!!! I'm terribly proud of you Klyphie. Hey I've always said it's not the age (and you know that I know that this is true-many visits to the church- 'nuff said) ; )

I did the internet dating thing for about 6 months before meeting The Boy. It's been 2 and half years and we're getting married this summer. I had to weed thru some pretty bad ones to get to him, but I got some funny stories and really big love out of the deal. Good luck to you.

Birdie96- Thanx. Not sure I am looking for that, but I'm not willing to rule it out either.
