There is something strange about running across a friend, a coworker or even an acquaintance when you are searching online profiles. I don't know what it is, but it still feels a little creepy to see someone you know.
Online dating isn't the "strange" thing it used to be. Back in the day when I started searching online (geez, I sound old), searching online for love was seen as more geeky or dare I say... desperate. But these days it's perfectly the norm. In fact you hear more often about people meeting ONLINE than offline through one of the other old school methods.
Tonight, while I was eating I was casually swiping through Tinder. I don't take Tinder very seriously -- but honestly, you never know where you are going to meet someone interesting, even if it's just good for a short conversation. But imagine my surprise when I saw not only 1, but 2 people I know relatively well. And I can't explain why, but I feel embarrassed that I saw them, it's like it's some big secret.
Even more interesting.... I've run across many of my friends, coworkers and acquaintances on these online dating sites. But what I find MOST interesting is seeing those who you thought were in a relationship. And then you end up in this very awkward situation... do you ask the person if they are no longer in a relationship, do you call them out on being on such-and-such site, do you ask them if they broke up with their significant other?
All these questions, and I have no answers. Do you?? Comment away!
