Everyone knows that online dating has its highs and lows…
and then there are those dreaded “oh-no’s”. You know, like the OCD match.com guy who keeps
track of his prospects and conquests in an excel spreadsheet. Eight lucky victims of this Prince Charming
will be forever immortalized thanks to a viral email that circulated this
morning containing his innovative tracking system.
You might wonder how this all got started. I mean he probably was too embarrassed to send it to anyone, right?
Think again. He actually sent it to one of the girls on the list as proof that he developed such a system. She sent it to a few of her girlfriends and the rest, as they say, his history.
You have to give him some credit, though. The system makes sense. In an age where we manage our schedules, checkbooks, social networks, and grocery lists online, why shouldn’t we manage our dating lives the same way? Some may see a creepy spreadsheet, but I’m seeing the initial wireframes for the next big iPhone app. But under no circumstances should Casanova be sending this to prospective dates!
And to think… he’s probably sitting at home twiddling his thumbs and wondering why he’s still single. Some things will always remain a mystery.

I completely agree. Keeping a spreadsheet is not a big deal at all. There was nothing even bad in there!
Everything has its pluses and minuses. Online dating gives a lot of possibilities but sometimes you need to be sure this is really yours. Meet match.com and you' ll be given a hand in your search.
In an online dating setting, information between two daters is treated confidentially. Don’t betray a fellow dater’s trust online by divulging any person information told to you to somebody else. Even in the world of online dating, trust can easily be betrayed if you aren’t careful. Suggested Reading about Sex Dejting
