Internet Dating

Internet Dating by Tina Lasley Online profiles, IM’s and chats This new way of dating What’s up with that? Sitting behind our computer screens Writing our profiles For all to be seen Exchanging emails, flirts and winks To online strangers To see what they think Checking out each profile’s stats Looking for others Who are most like that Preferences, interests & other things Constantly searching To see what it brings Long Term, Short Term or just Friends Who’s looking for what? It all depends Have kids, want kids, go to church? Smoker, drinker? So much to search Average, slender, athletic or plus Is it a deal breaker Or worth the fuss What is your job? How much do you earn? Is it a priority or minor concern Single, Widowed, Separated, Divorced So many options To be enforced Long gone… are the days of old When you Courted someone Letting things slowly unfold We are now reduced to online meetings Left checking the inbox For our daily greetings
