Hitch Me!

That is surely one of the best forms of innovation i have seen coming out of Singapore! Whoever is reading this got to check it out, anoymous dating cards for that gal or guy u had your eyes on but too shy to ask for her no. the mystery, the sense of cheekiness, hey this is my dating card with a headline: "You make my Day"

Hows that for an idea! and not just an idea, but full blown action! its a classic case of "why didn't i think of that" even more so of the fact that i'm single (and available!)

its like sometimes you just want to keep the 1st exchange of eyes, although i think its another different matter having the courage to go up to a gal and pass her a card and just smiling, and well because i'm shy, oh yes i am, especially when you see that attractive girl! but with this card? who knows? haha i mean, its kind of what u see in the movies sometimes, the leading actor chats up with a attractive female lead at either a pub, workplace, park or some other unexpected place, then before you part, you either ask for her number or give her ur number. She stores it in her HP and MIGHT never call u nor even remember you. But now with this card, you can skip the chatting part, pass her the card and i think really think, gives and probably builds up a sense of surprise and perhaps suspense? instead of a number, its my username and some special password. Its definitely more prominent than a number among 100 others in her hp! defintely helps to keep the impression going! and then if she logs in, she can see the profile stored on the website, and mind you, they do give you plenty of stuff that you can enter about yourselves, e.g. your interests and the things you like.

Talk about SDU and their not so long ago annoncement that they are closing down and leaving the dating scene to asipring entreprenurs or rather i say professional matchmakers in the market that could come up with more innovative ideas, one other is lunchactually, where strangers go on a lunch blind date.

Ok i think i sound pretty desperate but hey, i did sign up, it sounds fun although it might work out entirely different to what i have described above (which now seems to me the very "ideal" scenario) but well, no harm trying, the 1st 8 cards are free so thats a buffer for me i guess? well until i receive the cards in my mailbox, time to start thinking who to bump into! hahaha....

Love
