Out on a Limb…er, Date
You can fool all of the people some of the time: Looking over the past few months referrer logs for this site, I discovered that the proprietor of Out on a Date — the enigmatically named 'S', which I'm choosing to believe stands for "sassy" — seems to be under the impression that I'd be a great date.Now don't that just beat all? Chalk up another victory to savvy marketing.
S's slightly suspect taste aside, Out on a Date has so far been a ripping, if infrequently updated (and who am I to talk?), read. The premise certainly holds promise:
"Out On A Date" is where I'll blog about my dating experiences as a 30-something 'mo in L.A. I want to put this all out there because I wonder: are my experiences (the good, the bad, and the completely fucking ridiculously awful) unique? I believe that gay and straight, boy and girl, we all share more similarities that differences and that goes for dating, too. Do straight guys blow off straight girls the same way gay guys do to each other? Do gay girls really settle down so easily ("why are you bringing a U-Haul on the second date?")? Does every online personal ad sound the same? This is the kind of stuff I'm curious about, and why I'd like to hear from y'all.
So this blog is for anyone curious about online dating, about speed dating, about chat rooms, about how to really get out there and "find that special someone" (as all the dating sites endlessly promise!).
It's for anyone tired of trying to meet guys at bars, clubs and circuit parties.
Head over there and read up and maybe give S your own two cents on the dating scene. Maybe he'll even collect enough pennies to buy a vowel for his name.
