Comment on Dan Ariely on why online dating is so unsatisfying

Comments

I can see his point, but I have very good friends who I'm sure they would say the total opposite. Some found love, some found fun... heck, one even found a Maxim model (and they are still dating).

While I can't help but be a little curious and jealous over the last case, outliers always exist. You do need to make sure that your examples are not outliers, as by their very nature they do not represent the whole.

Just curious: would you still be jealous if said Maxim model turned out to be a vapid, brain-dead, moron?

Of course! In that case she wouldn't be long-term material, but it'd be nice to have had the experience just once.

She's an ingegner actually.
