I think after age 26 people just stop worrying about finding the person they’re going to kiss at midnight. This isn’t an age of Harry and Sally, we’re just trying to have the best time possible with great people and sing Auld Lang Syne terribly off-key.

But, I could be completely wrong. Do traditions involving affection bother you when you don’t participate in them?

I agree, I’m 32 and our New Years involved no one really giving a crap. Three Stooges marathon all the way, baby!!

I was at the library working on a research paper. It was a very quiet holiday week in between sessions, and the girl behind the desk was the only one besides me still there. The term librarian simply didn’t fit her at all. (via Coming or Going for the Holidays | Eden Cafe)

People buy used condoms?  What?

I’ve always wondered about how well AshleyMadison.com works for the people who use it. And even though it’s motto of “Life is short. Have an affair.” seems a bit distasteful to most people, I still think it could be the best valid means of having an affair should one be so inclined to stray from their partner anyways.

I have seen some bloggers and journalists who have written about their use of the Ashley Madison site and it does appear that some people are able to get dates/hook-ups from the site, though I’m assuming it’s like most other online dating sites, in that it helps a lot more if you are an attractive person, particularly if you are an attractive woman.

An interesting look at the success rates of men grouped by the frequency in which they send out messages to prospective dates. Taken from a survey of approximately 500 people who use PlentyofFish.com dating site.

If I were to get into making an online dating video, this is how I would go about it, creating a campy tongue-in-cheek style of self deprecating humor. This guy is genius, lets hope this dating video is pulling in the hotties for him!

So you’ve had enough of the bull crap on PlentyofFish, you’re sick of the perverts, tired of not having any women respond to your messages, and generally fed-up with trying to find a date on this free mediocre dating site. If this is the case then it’s likely you’ve been trying to figure out a way to delete your Plenty of Fish account and profile.

A recent discussion on Reddit’s Seduction forum regarding attracting women using your OkCupid profile got much attention when one person claimed to be getting 110-120 visitors a week to his own personal profile, which we know is rare for a lot of men. Fortunately this gentleman was willing to share an example of his OkCupid profile tips and notes with it.
