So, yeah I got lazy during this year. Jen and I had talked about going on 17 dates in efforts to find one good one. I’m not totally sure that I got lazy, or just didn’t really follow through like I thought I would. I went on a fair more number of dates than usual for me though, at least there’s that.
So I am proposing a shorter challenge. For the next two months I’ll be on a dating website. I will keep track of the number of dates I go on, and weather or not they ended up in friendship or otherwise. I do realize that two months may not be that long, especially around this time of year, but… I think this is a lot more doable and the end is in site.
I’m not making any rules about this challenge like we did for the other. I’m purely going to keep a tally. Along the way I might blog about some of the dates. I promise that I will change all names to protect the innocent, and not so innocent as well. I’ve even started keeping track of my other friends who are on the same website. Seeing as how we girls mostly have different tastes in men it shouldn’t be hard to not repeat going out with any of the same dudes.
I have a few dude friends who I’m also trying to convince to blog about it. Even if they don’t decide to share with the world, I will compile their data/research and blog about that. I’m thinking that I could extend this challenge till after the holidays too. But truth be told I don’t want to get to ahead of myself. I need to take whatever I’m doing by one day at a time.
How about you guys, do you have any horrible or awesome dating stories from online dating? I’d like to blog about that stuff too.

I joined a dating site to prove to a friend that there were plenty of good people to be found online. I made my profile, went on a date with the first woman who sent me a message and… we just celebrated our 9 month anniversary last weekend!
