Realization About Online Dating, and The Holidays

I realized last night when I was bored and perusing OKC for available guys that there is a large number of men on the site that have more than one profile.   Not different profiles with different photos, but virtually the same profile with merely a different user name.   I'm sure these duplicate users didn't lose their passwords or forget their user name.  Are they not smart enough to figure out how to change user names, change photos, edit text, etc?  Do these guys really think they can get more ladies if they portray themselves differently in each post?  Online dating is definitely getting a little stale these days.  I've been trying to find some good MeetUp groups and other social events where I (and my single friends) can meet other quality singles but it seems like they have been few and far between as well.

It's hard to be single during the holidays.   I get sad about how I'm not in a relationship, don't get to shop for their presents, blah blah blah.  And there are always couple parties and group (although mostly couples) events that happen that single people don't want to go to alone.  I need to think about finding a wingman or woman this year for these said parties.  We'll go together and dress up and have fun and even help each other scope out the singles.  Good idea, right??!
