Introduction

Background
After an anthropologically successful relationship, anointed by the production of two awesome and thriving genetic projects, the social contract they called marriage collapsed. (But fear not, Thetis collaborates perfectly and in a very civilised way with -let’s call him Peleus- in the welfare of the two little ones, who are as happy as any other little human of their respective ages).

Getting back into the dating arena… nightmare. The Drake equation was not very kind to me when applied to my known habitat. Therefore, I faced the imperious fate of expanding to other Universes. The interweb seemed the perfectly normal (and lets face it… easier option: much more convenient to eliminate unsuitable dates from the comfort of home rather than wasting time on awkward outings). 1st Fact about Thetis: Extremely busy creature.
So there you have it…Thetis fully immersed in the hyperreal subculture of cyberspace dating.

The Setting
Thetis is a 40 year old female, with optimal BMI (so I can say objectively slim and with no visible signs of her child bearing past). The basis of her cosmogony are elegance, compassion, justice and rationality).
In order to select potential mates, Thetis signed to two well known cyberspace enclaves (one free and another one payed) that potentiate the interaction between people seeking romantic companionship.


The rules
Rule One. All the information in Thetis’s profile is accurate (but played down a bit… otherwise I'll sound too good to be true). The photo is recent, displaying great hair and skin. However, make-up was missing on that day so that it had to be enhanced digitally (2nd fact about Thetis: she can rock Photoshop!). Alter all, a certain degree of deception is expected in this sort of thing.
Rule two. Thetis will use this blog to write about her experiences in the cyberworld dating and other things that she might find relevant to the theme.
Rule three. Thetis will make new rules as she goes along.
