A: Do you want to hang out tomorrow?
5029B: Oh, I can’t. I have a date!
5030A:Really? Wow with who?
5031B:This girl I’ve been chatting with forthe past couple of months. She’s really
cool and she’s driving over here this weekend.
5032A:Wait a minute, you mean you met her online?
5033B:Yeah! I signed up for a website called match. and it is great!You fill in all
your details and preferences, like if you are a smoker or if you have any pets.
Then you find people that have similar characteristics and you can email them or
chat.
5034A:That is kind of weird! What if she is a psycho or something like that?
5035B:It’s the same as meeting people anywhere and dating them! I am just tired of
going to bars or being set up for dates by my friends! I think this is a really
cool alternative, especially if you are a bit shy.
5036A: I guess it does seem logical. I’ll have to check it out!
