Instinct: Dating Profile Headline of the Day

Friday

The weekend is upon us, not the honeymoon that is anticipated after the Royal Wedding, but we will participate in a simple weekend of our own design.

I myself will be people watching, one of my favorite pastimes, creating stories woven into the slight interaction as the people become a part of my world, if only for a second or two.

At our heart we are all people watchers. The instinct to see if we immediately belong to the group that that person is a part of, to see if we can co-exist, maybe even become friends, is a part of our instinct, a cog in our “fight or flight” ancestral behavior.

Online dating overrides this very basic part of us, this is why the first meeting is filled with more dread than most. Throughout the search and the following conversational messages as you get to know the person, try as you might you can’t fully understand their “being” until you’re close enough to smell them, to hear their accent, to shake their hand, touching them.

Taking the bold step forward of meeting your date online and converting the online aspect to a real date is what online dating is all about. This also adds a new required basic instinct of trusting the words that are written by a stranger for other strangers.

How good are your interpretation skills?

Today’s dating profile headline is this:
“I will read your words and hope to hear your voice.”

Have a great day!
