Based on my limited experience, I shouldn’t complain, but…

Well, from what most people say, this cartoon from The Fifth Wave sums it up. And, certainly, that was true of my ex-wife, who could be downright fun, for up to three days at a time. But, somehow, the people we represent ourselves to be on those infernal Internet dating sites is never quite how we really are in life, is it?

  1. Oh that cartoon was classic. I mean thats something thats happened to just about every guy online. (only sometimes she looks very um… “different” than you thought.

    They talk about this in the book freakanomics, how men and women aren’t as ‘truthful’ as they should be on these websites.
