Everyone could use some practice in basic PR. The more I take the TTC, the more I realize that. It’s no wonder that Canadians are experts in online dating–especially in Toronto. We’re too busy ignoring everybody in public.

So have we officially realized that Canadian’s can be rude, and American’s very friendly? A friend of mine who recently moved to Florida said she’s tired of saying ‘hi’ to every stranger that crosses her path. And it seems more Canadian women are going south to find men because, and I’m summarizing here, American men seem to have more ‘game’.

Dating is all about communications and public relations. But have we (Canadians) become so wrapped up in sending out a visual message that we’ve forgotten about just talking to people? The ground has finally thawed up here–it’s about time we thaw out too.
