She dreams in digital: Dating on and off the grid
“How did you meet?”
Nowadays, it goes something like this, “Well, I found her after searching a keyword that I’m interested on Twitter. I clicked around to her Facebook, saw that she was attractive, seemed to have a nice *normal* group of friends, no upside down keg photos. I started following her blog and her Twitter. Then, I waited until I had something genuinely useful and relevent to say—something I wanted to say not something I felt I had to say in the pressure of the moment. That began a short, but interesting, online conversation and then we decided to take it into the real world. We had real conversation, over a delicious meal, based on things we already knew about each other.”
Eerily accurate. Except we don’t actually admit all that. ;)
