Top 5 Worst Reasons to Date Somebody

November 3rd, 2010

Most of the time I write about the positives in dating, but today I’m going to talk about the negative. You know, those dates you never should have gone on in the first place. Here are the top five worst reasons to date somebody.

  • Looks. Ok, we’ve all done this. And, sometimes it works out well because, as luck would have it, we find we have lots in common with the walking Ken or Barbie. But, when that happens, it is just that: luck. Beauty fades quickly when you find you have nothing in common.
  • They seemed just like your ex – This one will disappoint you every time. Get over your ex – don’t try to replace him or her.
  • They are your best friend’s ex – Ok, so maybe you’re not going out with them because they’re your best friend’s ex, but your friend has said that they don’t care. Unless they dated this person years ago and have gone on to find the love of their life since then, they don’t mean it when they say it’s ok. You’re risking a friendship on this one.
  • Dating your boss – In many companies, it’s against policy and will get you fired. But, even if it isn’t technically against the rules; it’s a bad idea. You’ll make enemies of your coworkers, and be in a very bad spot if it doesn’t work out.
  • Dating a subordinate – Just like dating your boss, dating someone who reports to you at work is asking for trouble. And, if you break up with them, and they happen to be vindictive; you could be looking at a sexual harassment charge.

Survival of the Hottest?

July 25th, 2007

In this world where beauty seems to be the ideal, it’s no surprise that some online dating sites are capitalizing on this trend. At DarwinDating.com, it’s all about the survival of the ‘hottest’ where only beautiful people can sign up and meet other equally beautiful people.

All you have to do is sign up – and then hope that others vote you in as ‘hot enough’ to be a part of this young, hip, and happening group of would be daters.

Sound restrictive? It is. The main concern with Darwin Dating is that while it sounds like it’s taking itself a bit too seriously, it really thinks that it’s cornering the market on those that value superficial looks above all else. And in this day and age, maybe that’s what people are looking for.

It sounds like a bunch of silliness to those that want to find love in someone who simply shares the same values as themselves, who wants to respect and love them for whoever they are. But for those that are tired of finding certain groups of people on the dating sites they’re currently using, this might be the perfect fit.

I guess that if you’re going to say that there’s a dating site for everyone, you need to include a dating site for everyone – even if the pretty people all want to hang out by themselves and talk about how pretty they are.

Do you have any comments, complaints or something to say about DarwinDating.com? Did you meet someone special on this site? If so, we’d love to hear from you. Your opinion matters!
