More Funny Shit From Eharmony

This one makes me laugh.

It is called "5 Things it's NOT Okay to Ask on a First Date".

Three to five make perfect sense, so I will ignore those. It is the first two that give me a WTF response.

"Try to keep the tone light during the first few months of courtship"

Umm... no. Sorry, this is a rather retarded part of America culture. If one person is thinking "family in three years", and the other is thinking "I never want children", this needs to be out in the open on the second or third meeting. Otherwise both people are just waisting each other's time. No one should need to sacrifice their life goals.

"Do not ask age". Why not? If this question is offensive then perhaps they need to ask themselves why they are so sensitive about it. If this is someone you met off line, then this should probably be known sooner then later. What if the woman thinks you are 25 when you are actually 35, she could have a problem with dating a much older man, and finding out later can lead to an awkward situation.
