Mac.

Where is Caroles post is she encouraging promiscuity? She suggested you go for a coffee and if you don't get on, go out with someone else. Unless I'm reading it differently?

Hi, Glam
Good to read from you, at last.
I did not expect Carole to suggest that we should date women en masse..
Polarstar, are you taking good note?

@Glam is right ...

Its what we did in the olden days before social media and phones and computers.

We just went out and met real people, if we didnt like 'em we found another....and so on.

So what happened to the good old days? Why "most people are content with their anonymity and being able to come on and vent/ discus/ banter"
You have quickly catched up with modern times...

Anyway, in Socratic way, the more I read, the less I understand...

Hi, Glam
Good to read from you, at last.

I don't comment on everything. I let others show their stupidity once in a while.

I remember a time before mobile phones etc. Where the only phone in the village was the phone box half a mile away. If you were expecting a call from someone, you'd race to the box and hope there was no-one there when your friend was due to call!
I married the first bloke I ever went out with, and was with him 25yrs, so haven't had much experience of 1st dates.

What a fantastic thread this is.

I can see the 'Dating' section is going to do the forum great credit

I had forgotten that. People would queue outside phone box to make a call but sometimes the people in the box would take ages with no thought to those shivering outside.

And if you had arranged someone to phone you at a certain time "AT BOX" and then someone was in there having a conversation......well, lets say there was much banging on windows there was.

It was with much importance to get a phone fitted in one own home.

We had a party line with the posh folk in the bungalow over the old mill. Quite often they would leave it 'off the hook'. 1 of us would have to go over and ask them put the receiver back so we could make a call. My dad was always poorly and it was a lifeline to getting him a doctor or ambulance.

Yes i had forgoten about party line too...

pick up the reciever to make a call and hear the neighbours having a private conversation.

Funny old times.

Are two particular posters really carbon-based life forms, or algorithms?

In Socratic way indeed.
