"Meeting your match offers candid advice and real information to lead you through the ups and downs of online matchmaking. Although this book can't tell you how to live happily ever after (nothing can guarantee you a life of white picket fences and adorable children), it does give you the very best chance of meeting a life partner and helps you have a great time while you're looking. You may need an open mind, and open heart, and a thick skin, but your adventures will be fun, sexy, joyful, occassionally painful, and, more often than not, downright hilarious. The guide includes : Picking a site and building a profile ; Decoding profiles, selection, and rejection ; Case studies of the worst-evers and happy-ever-afters ; Message madness : the netiquette of online conversation ; Digital and physical safety". -- P.[4] of cover.
