Again, I wholeheartedly agree - but for many of these folks, the dating scene is the immediate forum (for them at least) wherein their battle for personhood seems won or lost. Looking back now - in my own case, I feel I would have become a more mature, fully developed person - mentally and emotionally - had I spent *less* time getting involved with very unsavory women - merely to say I was 'dating' or 'in a relationship'.
If I had it to do over I think I might have spent more time - if I was on campus, in getting involved in various volunteer efforts. And - strange as it may seem, genuine relationships often blossom as a result of such involvement - in which 'dating' is not sought as an end in itself.

"Shy? Lonely?"
Why is it that on the shyness newsgroup all everyone wants to talk about is dating, dating, dating?! A lot of people have shyness problems in other areas of life and probably should deal with those first before they worry about finding the girl or guy of their dreams.
On top of it, because of this over fixation on trying to get a date, we have to put up with these intelligence-insulting I think some people are so fixated on the dating scene that they aren't very aware of how their shyness has affected them in other ways that maybe ought to be addressed more quickly.
