Hello, long-time Dating Sucks readers and first-time lurkers (I see you there, trying to hide behind the pole!): Its Do the Math Time. (Perhaps this will turn into a semi-regular DS feature?) When I decided to give the online dating thing a go last summer, I started off slowly on a few niche sites. Once I got my sea legs and actually met someone IRL for the first time, the dating started in earnest. So, lets break it down, shall we? In the last three months, Ive been on a total of nine first dates, five second dates, five third dates, and two forth dates, for a grand total of 21 dates. Phew! It makes me tired just *thinking* about it! They say youve got to kiss a lot of frogs before you find your prince, but all nine of the gentlemen Ive been out with were far closer to royalty than amphibians. Its a drag, but so much of creating a romantic relationship has to do with timing, distance, time available to date, and a million silly other little bits and pieces that dont have anything to do with attraction, willingness, or desire. Ive got no regrets thus far, and Im having loads of fun. Nine guys and twenty-one dates in three months, and Im chatting up three more recruits as I type this...;) For the time being though, its just me, myself, and I. And Im cool with that. :)
