Dating Resume

Recommended Posts

You are so old school... Resume? Lets put the power of our pda's, cell phones, wireless, and bluetooth to work. :P
Got to an office and take a battery of tests and answer question. Those characteristics characteristics, traits, etc. go into your phone/pda. Walk into a bar, grocery store, dog park, etc. and hit scan...
Your personality profile will be automatically sent to all the electronic devices in the room. Your profiles will be compared: first orientation, then sex, if you are compatible. If there is a match both of your phones/pda's will play the same song and glow the same color and GPS style directions to find the person.
Obviously you can disable it, set it for 1 night stands only, superficial values (Blonde, washboard abs, etc)
This would rock in big cities!!! You could walk into a bar do a quick scan and know if it is worth hanging around, or move onto the next bar.
Of course I know what mine would say (over and over again) [Voice mail lady voice] "You have no matches" :(
Stupidity if left untreated is self-correcting
If ya can't be good, look good, if that fails, make 'em laugh.

Sounds like dot.com project to me :)Hey, Vallerina, let's make it into a website - something like www.datewatch.com

You create an account, and generate one-time access code to your date (so they cannot change it later when they get pissed at you).

Isn't part of the fun, finding these things out as you go along, and either accepting or rejecting them?

Or is over-analysis a requirement these days?

Why not make up a tick sheet to hand out, and avoid conversation all together? [:/]

Isn't that always true of every relationship all the time? Both parties are free to terminate at any time. Withdrawal from a relationship has never required mutual consent.

Heck no! I'd much rather know right up front that someone has a few qualities which I would not be able to tolerate while dating them. For example, I cannot stand the "Yes" men here at work. You know the type....they don't think for themselves, they go along with whatever anyone else says, etc. I don't want to date somebody like that, so I would really like to know if that's the type of person they are up front.

Well no one's going to admit that was one of their bad qualitites! Hence the problem with your 'dating resume' - no one wants to list the really bad things about themselves.
it's like incest - you're substituting convenience for quality

Well in your case it really doesn't work. You only have bad qualities. :D

That made no sense. It could still work, just the front of my shirt would be blank

That's why I like Wendy's idea of having other people do it for you!


That's a good theory, but one person's idea of a 'bad quality' can be very different from another's. One person's perception of you can be different than anothers'. One person might bring out a bad quality in you, when another doesn't.

Why you gotta waste my flava?

Actually, I think there are a few qualities which are present no matter who you're with. A person who doesn't think for themselves won't no matter who they're with, etc.

That's true too, but I've already said people's perceptions can be different. There are some people who think that's a good quality (although I'd doubt they'd admit it) And if two people are together, and neither think for themself, neither will see it as a bad quality. So basically, I don't think the odds are in your favor for someone pointing out a bad quality that you'd experience with the same person.

That's even better! If someone has something that I like listed as a bad quality, then I know I'm golden! :P Actually, if people were just more honest with themselves, I think it would make things a lot easier on everyone.

Ummm, resumes sell you; that is their purpose. And they are written subjectively to accomplish that. For you idea to have any validity, it would have to be written by a friend. And then they are seeing you through the friends' subjective conscience. The catch is, when you meet the right person, their subjective vision of you will probably be different/more understanding than anyone you have known, so wouldn't you like them to paint their own picture of you? Because the magic is, it will be better anyone you tried to paint.

So, I vote for honesty and sincerity conversation way above the shirt. Because without, the rest really doesn't matter
