Interesting article at Marketwatch. Good advice. Only if you heed it.
Spring is upon us. Worcester's singles are getting ready for the mating season - shaking off the winter sleep, desperately trying to lose the winter fat, and plug new wrinkles. Worcester's singles are getting ready for the annual mating dance. Interesting article for all singles (and the naughty adventuresome married partner) that will put into perspective the pitfalls of love in the digital age. Not very encouraging.
Worcester, unlike other New England hamlets, has an overabundance of singles. Latest US census demographics show that there are some 35,000 singles jostling for elbowroom at the local bars. Of that some 15,000 are geriatrics. Must be tough on geriatrics like Rosalie Tirella, all wrinkly and paunchy, trying to compete with the young heifers.
So where do Worcester's geriatric singles meet? Bars mostly, some cruise the local McDonalds andDunkin Donuts. Some Wal-Mart and Dollar Store. But for many the bar scene is too much, they prefer the WAM or other cultural outlets. Or a combination thereof. Must be a strange scene, reminiscent of a Fellini film, watching geriatrics doing a mating dance.
Today's singles of all ages are opting for the online approach, pay a hefty fee and you have access to thousands of lonely hearts profiles. As in any personal endeavor, there are pitfalls.The slick website marketers have done some nifty stuff to match lonely hearts. But that's hooey. It's really a crap game. Remember the adage, the good ones are already taken.
Speaking of damaged goods. We found Rosalie Tirella's profile on several singles websites. Of all places the ole girl is looking for love on the internet. Wonders never cease. Guess after she whooped all the eligible males in Worcester, whats left isn't worth her time. Lucky them.
She of all local geriatrics has the lowest probability of meeting anyone. Just look at her profile: admits to restraining orders. No health insurance. Not much of a catch. Rosie's the perfect example of a social pariah: no friends, no beau, no nuttin. Even her muts, at the first chance, have made a mad dash for freedom. Better feral than a prisoner of Rosie's love. So gentlemen, beware.
