Where Has All The Talk Gone?
Lately I’ve been thinking. Are we ever going to get back to a place in relationships where men and women actually “talk”? Nowadays everything seems to be in the form of a text or e-mail (she said as she blogged). Depending on where you’re at in the relationship those methods are fine, but I still think face-to-face is the best way to start.
Starting a connection on Facebook or My Space? Technology in some cases has become our new matchmaker. Understandable. “ He Said/She Said” has found a permanent home on the Internet as a result. Looking back however, my best connections have come sitting across from that individual, not “chatting” with a computer keyboard miles away from them.
Girls want to “see” who they might be connecting with. Even if that meeting doesn’t go well at least you’ll have a better understanding as to where you stand. Regrets are better dealt with sooner than later. Meeting face-to-face cuts to the romantic chase. Another date could be the end result, or if it doesn’t go well, then think of all the time you’ll save in future, wasted postings to that person.
No one knows with absolute certainty what the sure-fire formula is. You can only continue to try, I guess and sometimes the old school ways can prove to be some of the best.
