People were endlessly trying to set me up with 'eligible' men, and I enjoyed going on a galaxy of dates.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I dated dozens of young men, had fun with all, made commitments to none.
A good amount of the guys wanted to date me. Even older guys looking at me. It took some getting used to.
I always have awkward relationships with the ladies for whatever reason. I don't know and so here we are. I was able to sort of take all of those terrible, terrible, terrible dates and turn them into a money making venture.
All my other relationships with men, there was so much maneuvering and strategic decisions and stuff.
I've never been someone who dates all that much - I'm more of a serial monogamist.
'Dating Game' wasn't social commentary, political analysis, Shakespearean-level drama or even blunt-force comedy. It was just the televised equivalent of meeting someone at a bar. But it appealed to our most basic Darwinian instinct: selecting a good mate. You can't go wrong when a show's premise is hard-wired into human DNA.
In fact, no one has ever really wanted to go on a date with me.
I certainly didn't want to date. I was through with guys.
I didn't have a whole lot of success getting dates, I was always a bit of a geek.
I had relationships with men as well as women. I wasn't choosing; I didn't think I had to.
