Online Shopping

I've come to realize that online dating is like online shoe shopping. You browse the pages looking at different styles, shapes, purposes, heights, categories, colors, and occasions.  Shopping online is always a risk.  You're judging the merchandise by a picture and a self serving pitch.  They have pictures in multiple angles and you try to imagine how they fit into your life/wardrobe.  They look pretty and appealing on the computer screen and they sound amazing....do you hit the purchase button?

Add to cart.  Purchase.

You're eagerly awaiting your purchase.  Ding Dong.  They're here!!!

You can open the door and find something that looks nothing like the pictures online!  In the pictures they looks classy, sophisticated and trendy.  And in person they look bulky, outdated and awkward!  The description they had was easy going and comfortable but you find out they are stiff and uncomfortable.  All in all they just don't feel right!

Online shopping is always hard.  If you're like me, its more about how they look and feel in real life than in cyberworld.  And that goes for men and shoes.  I like to walk up, see them and get that butterfly feeling.  I get to see exactly what I'm committing to.  It's just a feeling you can't get online.

So men, if you see a hot girl in person, ask her out!  Stop "winking", "poking" and any other elementary school action!  Seriously, if you see a pair of shoes you want, go check them out in person, try them on. It's better than getting them in the mail and having to use the return sticker.
