This is the story

This is the story of 4 girls giving online dating a chance.  We’re here to chronicle for the world to know what it’s like to meet men on the internet.  There will be good dates, there will be bad dates, there will be creepers and d-bags, but one thing is for sure, there will be stories!  “You both like yoga” must mean that it’s a match made in heaven.  Or is it the fact that you both consider yourself spiritual that will make it destiny?  We are committed to the adventure that it will be and for the next 3 months you will see the highs and lows of what it’s like to online date. 

There are a few things that should be said first to help set the stage for this adventure.  I would like to introduce you to us!

B: 31, school librarian, longest relationship: 5 years
J: 30, teacher, longest relationship: 3 months
M: 23, special ed (not her, her job), longest relationship: 6 months
V: 24, teacher, longest relationship: TBD

We have set for ourselves some ground rules to go by, making the adventure a bit structured. We are all in education and so rules is how we roll.  Here’s how it goes.
1. Age matters!  Age cap for M&V: 30 Age cap for B&J: 38
2. We must log on at least once a day.
3. When asked out on a date, we must go, unless the age cap is exceeded.
4. We must blog about all interesting experiences, online or on dates.  No secrets!
5. We may not initiate dates, chivalry does exist!! We can be old-fashioned while dating online.
6. We can communicate with the same guys.  A little healthy competition is good.
7. We will not reveal the names of any guys communicated with. We will instead refer to them with the name of a beverage.
 

Today is Sunday, December 11, 2011. Let the dating begin.
