`
`Dear Reader,
`No doubt, if you are reading this, you are asking yourself the question "Should I buy this
`book?" Take this simple quiz to find out.
`Dating is:
`(A) The measurement of an object's carbon content as a means to determine its age.
`(B) The process of ingesting a sweet edible oblong fruit.
`(C) The hellish dance of loneliness played out between two people as they vie for
`position to eviscerate each other's soul.
`(D) I do not date. I am a Vulcan.
`
`If you answered any of the above, or even made up your own answer, you are correct and
`should buy this book (thus ensuring me a royalty). For those of you who need additional
`convincing, let's examine the answers more closely.
`If you selected choice A, you probably have limited exposure to socializing with people.
`Since the last thing you want to do is converse with people face to face without any prac-
`tice, purchasing this book will allow you to talk to others over the Internet without having
`to confront issues associated with grooming or hygiene. Inside these pages we'll explore
`chat rooms, instant messaging, and Web-based message boards, all of which can put you
`into contact with others over the Internet, while keeping you safe and anonymous.
`If you selected choice B, you are either a farmer or someone obsessed with sexual innuen-
`do. In either case, you need to meet people soon. Going through life relating to everything
`as a function of survival or a sick joke can only lead you to a troubled existence. In this
`book, you'll learn the best places to seek companionship online and, when converting it
`into an offline relationship, how to do so safely.
`If you selected choice C, you're bitter. Nothing can really help you except the positive rein-
`forcement of good experiences. Throughout this book are anecdotes from people who've
`met others online. Not all the stories end well, but all the storytellers have survived their
`tales. These stories hopefully will give you the courage to try to meet people via the
`Internet and the confidence to know that even if you do have a few dreadful experiences,
`you will survive.
`Finally, if you selected choice D, you are an extraterrestrial. Who more than you needs to
`understand other humans? As such, these pages will introduce you to Web sites designed to
`give advice of the heart, assist with online romance, and ease the pain of getting over a
`relationship. As an alien, you will probably never use these resources yourself, but imagine
`how much better you'll interact with the human population after having been exposed to
`this information.
`Thank you for taking this quiz to determine whether you need to buy this book. And thank
`you for your purchase.
`Sincerely,
`Joe Schwartz

`
`People socializing and dating on the Internet often have different reasons for wanting to
`meet others. Here are the five most common types of people, based on their social objec-
`tives.
`The Dabbler has gone online to "see what this Internet dating thing is all about," but
`doesn't usually have any plan other than "to have fun." As you begin your journey socializ-
`ing with others over the Net, you might find yourself in the middle of an email or chat
`room conversation that you thought was going really well, when the other party goes
`AWOL. That's the dabbler either getting bored or realizing that connection with another
`individual is not really what he or she is after.
`The Nester wants to find a committed relationship and is looking to the Internet as one of
`many ways to find one. He or she is usually very goal-oriented in that the purpose of social-
`izing online is not about the process of forging friendships, but is about finding THE ONE
`PERSON that will be his or her lifetime mate.
`The Hormone wants sex. Usually he or she will make this very clear early on. Hormones
`vary in that some just want virtual sex (that is, simulating sex via a private chat room dis-
`cussion or email), some want to meet you in the physical world, and some want it in all
`manner, shape, and form.
`The Butterfly goes from chat room to chat room, person to person, having conversations
`with a multitude of different people. He or she is looking to make one or more friends and
`usually keeps the relationship platonic. In a simpler time, this person went by the name pen
`pal.
`The Seeker doesn't know what he or she is looking for, but unlike the Dabbler, is seeking
`to make some sort of connection with another person. He or she might claim to be looking
`for a partner or just looking for sex, but the actual agenda is usually unknown to the Seeker.
`
`Emoticons
`
`:(or :-(
`
`Emoticon
`:) or :-)
`
`Description
`The original Smiley that means "I'm happy." Can also mean "I'm
`joking."
`"I'm sad." Indicates to the reader that the current writer is sad at what
`he or she has just heard.
`A wink. Usually used for a flirtatious or sarcastic remark.
`-)
`{hugs or [hug]
`A hug.
`{{{***}}}
`Hugs and kisses.
