Your friend has decided that you need help with your social life so she sets you up with a blind date, a friend of a friend of a friend. You, foolishly, accept. Now there you are.

You arrive to your first blind date. Your friend told you that Jack is a great catch, and "kind of cute". You are at the restaurant door and a big guy walks over to you. He introduces himself to you as "Jack". The girls did not tell you that Jack looks like Baby Huey. You both go back to the table where Jack had been waiting for you.

The entre has not yet been served. His idea of an enlightened conversation is who will be in the final four. You are not into sports, but you listen politely hoping he will change the topic of conversation soon. When he doesn't change the topic, but he pauses to catch his breath, you quickly begin talking about your job and how much you enjoy it.

You are so bored you begin thinking of how you could make as polite an exit as possible. Jack is a sweet guy and you two could be friends but you really don't see thing going much beyond friendship. He seems to be very interested in you though, and you are happy that at least guys still find you attractive.

Now imagine a date with someone you met through internet dating and have been chatting online with and exchanging emails with for quite some time.

With on-line dating, you don't need to be introduced. You have already been introduced via telephone conversations and emails. You already know this man and he knows you. You are sitting in an Italian restaurant enjoying a delightful meal because you both know that the other's favorite is Italian. The conversation flows easily as you discuss common interests.

You both know a lot about the other before you meet. You both enjoy beaches. You both love travel and children. Neither one of you is a couch potato, and you both have extroverted personalities. Your first physical meeting is a great success for both of you.

There is a big difference between a well-intentioned friend setting you up and choosing a man for yourself who shares your interests and tastes, isn't there?

Which one would you rather have?
