You've Got Mail



By: D. Glazebrook

You've Got MailLong before “Must Love Dogs” hit the theatres, “You’ve Got Mail” hit the big screen signaling that online romance had arrived at a terminal near you. This romantic blockbuster featured AOL instant messenger as the way upscale yuppies fit love into their busy, urban schedules. Years later, instant messenger and chat boards/forums are still in vogue, but now we have the rise of the new frontier of digital love: online dating sites.

I doubt I could name a single dating site back in 1998. I don’t think there’s been any around that long. But technology is catching up fast. Now, not only can you visit sites that are built for speed and mass communications between millions of people, you can use video and audio to talk directly from your computer to someone on the other side of the world in what is getting very close to real-time. The world has changed and continues to move forward with no signs of slowing down.

“You must put in the effort if you hope to hear those magical words, 'You’ve Got Mail.'”

When was the last time you checked your mail? When was the last time you checked your mail on an online dating site? If you’ve been on an online dating site, chances are you check it regularly. It’s one of the best ways to get your face seen by members, after all. If you’re not getting the response you’d like from your site, you should try another one or change your profile. It’s a mistake to believe that all you have to do is stick your profile on a site and your mailbox will be filled with eligible singles. Online dating is work. It’s no different than going to a bar in that respect. There are many elements that make it much better and more effective than hitting up your local dive for a possible love interest, but you can’t take a hands-off approach. You must put in the effort if you hope to hear those magical words, “You’ve Got Mail.”
