This sounds like a brilliant plan and we live in the perfect city for it. There is so much to do and see in New York, why on Earth would you go it alone when there's a whole website dedicated to finding you a cute partner for that romantic walk across the Brooklyn Bridge at sunset?!?! I mean, you don't have to people watch alone in the park anymore, or take trapeze swinging lessons alone anymore, or taste test every dumpling in Chinatown alone anymore. This idea is a gold mine!
So here's what I proposed so far:
How About We...
act like kids in a candy store at Economy Candy?
How About We...
splash through the water at the Central Park playground?
How About We...
go to the Green Market in Union Square and make a picnic out of all the fresh foods we buy there?
How About We...
walk across the Brooklyn Bridge at sunset and treat ourselves to Jacques Torres truffles on the other side?
How About We...
get to know each other while waiting in line to split a pie of Grimaldi's famous pizza?
How About We...
laugh ourselves silly with a free improv show at the PIT?
How About We...
act like animals at the Central Park Zoo?
How About We...
visit a 25 foot waterfall right in the heart of Midtown?
How About We...
go indoor rock climbing at Chelsea Piers?
How About We...
get dressed up and sip champagne at the Polo Classic?
How About We...
try everything on the cheese cart at Picholine?
How About We...
go on a scavenger hunt at the Met?
As you can see, dear readers, there are a million things to do in Manhattan and I have barely struck the tip of the proverbial iceberg. (I could sure use your help thinking up new dates, btw!!!) What amazed me was this: I got a response to almost every single one of these ideas! I couldn't believe it. I was over the moon ecstatic about the thought of finally getting to do so many fun things with guys I'd be lucky to hit it off with. Time to check the mailbox!

Dude, this guy wrote back to every single date I posted. And he didn't even change the greeting! I mean, look at who is proposing the date at least. If you see the same user name over and over and over, chances are she's gonna figure out that you're not exactly being original and sincere when you're copying & pasting the same faux accent crap into your emails :-(
Highly disappointed in How About We... or at least in ItalianSoul2003...

Beyond LAME! I LOVE the idea of that site though! Too bad they don't have on for friendship like that I would be ALL OVER IT!
