I imagine that if you put up ads at ten different online
dating sites you will get 20 replies.
Then you have another person go out on the dates, then
fill
in a statistics sheet on things like vivacity, mental
stability, appearance, good-personness.
Then you have a date with the three highest
scorers. You
get just 3/20 of the anxiety and most likely a better
time.
Now the thing is you are upfront about this in your
personals ad. You advertise at craigslist to find a neutral
cyrano similar to you (personality:MBTI) to go on the
dates. Each
date pays them $20. Not only that, they have the option
of dating the person too if they like them. Thus some
fortunate person gets paid to go on dates.
So among those with an extra $400, the three most
wonderful people are located and warmed up.

Neutrocyranic?? Is the idea that you send an asexual frenchman with an enormous nose as your stand-in? |
|
| |
Well, at least it's not in other:general. |
|
| |
Are you going to pay for the dates dinners ? Or do they only get $20? And how are you going to screen your judges? |
|
| |
[-] because I have actually gone on dates. |
|
| |
[-] Experience is making you own mistakes. Especially the experience not going out again, with the one you probably should have. |
|
| |
Have you thought through how this would look from the girls'
point if view? |
|
| |
I don't see the post as being male-oriented. |
|
| |
Best of course would be rep/rep dating. |
|
| |
I believe that's the role of diplomats. |
|
| |
[beany], have you actually ever been on a date? |
|
| |
Do telepresence robots count? Intercontinental dating. Probably not, the nose isn't big enough. |
|
| |
You realize if this is successful, your surrogates will be
reporting on the surrogates of the lady daters. |
|
| |
So if they found a successful match, it is likely it is not with
someone who is warmed up, but rather with a paranoid
apartment-dweller who is afraid to go outside. |

[xenzag] is absolutely NOT paranoid. We really are waiting and watching for an opportunity, however fleeting, to dispense Extreme Prejudice where it is so richly deserved. |

I prefer raisins to dates. |
|

A couple of raisins can add to the rye ins. |
