Welcome Back, Blogger


I have dated everyone in the world. I started dating at 19 for the ostensible purpose of marriage (religious upbringing) but that clearly didn't work out, as almost 20 years later (gulp!) I was still single. In between that time, internet dating arrived, became popular, and now, I think, may have jumped the shark -- or at least regained its rightful place among the pantheon of all dating options. (Yes, there are other dating options.)

I used to write about dating. I used to write for MSN, Match.Com , The Jewish Journal of Greater Los Angeles about my thoughts about dating in general, and then, more often than not -- about my own dating life in particular -- like the guy who talked about himself in the third person, the guy who told me I was too closed, the one who forgot he already went out with me.

Funny stuff, most of the time, if I may say so myself. So funny, in fact, I turned them into the illustrated dating column here that ran for a week for six months. I then started writing a graphic novel trying to sum up all over my dating life in 120 pages.

I learned something funny.

Writing about dating might not have been helping my dating life.

Dating sites have thousands if not millions of members so good search tools are important. However, it's still up to you
search out your perfect match and not everyone has time for this. Luckily many dating services have matchmaking features
(more sophisticated search tools) that will help you find "the one" quickly and easily.

After reading your blog I think I understand now why writing about dating does not help in your dating life, maybe you have too much experience now, it's getting harder and harder to appreciate new people and relationship, right?

Online dating Tips said...

Do date only people you're attracted to, no matter what your friends say. Approval by your peers doesn't prove a thing.

african woman said...

Your blog is really interesting!
After reading it I now realize that no matter how expert you are when it comes to writing about dating it does not help because what you write is not exactly the same as what you will experience in the real dating.
Anyways, at least you learn from your experiences!
