" Today, this book came across my desk: Obviously, the title is tongue and cheek, but at the same time, not something I&amp;#039;d want to necessarily be seen reading on the subway! In general, while I appreciate snark and definitely know the feeling (and am going to definitely read it!) , the title alone makes me kind of sad. Even though I&amp;#039;ve had some doozies of dates, I sort of love them. The dressing up, the going to a new restaurant or bar, the not knowing who you&amp;#039;re going to meet . . . it beats watching DVR&amp;#039;ed episodes of One Tree Hill and feeling guilty about not going to the gym! Also, it seems like dating is almost going out of fashion. Do high schoolers date anymore or do they just hook up? What about college kids? I don&amp;#039;t think I went on any &amp;quot;official&amp;quot; dates until I was 21\u2014prior to that, it&amp;#039;d be hanging out or meeting up at parties. What do you think? Is dating going out of fashion? And does it make you want to die? "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
