No one wants to get hurt. That’s for certain. So some people might welcome this service with open arms, saying that they’ll be able to find out quickly if this date will end well or not.
Did your date go well? Did you get played? Did they call when they said they would? We want to know! Tell us your innermost thoughts–don’t let your neighbors get fooled just as you did,” urges Global SMS, a privately owned company based in South Florida that came out with PlayerBlock.See, sounds good to this point, right? Hopefully you answered “no” to that question. This is a terrible service. Are you seriously going to trust the opinion of someone you’ve never met — never even heard of — just because he or she dumped on your date? Human relationships are a subjective experience. One guy might seem like a total sleeze to one woman, but might be Prince Charming for another. It’s how our minds work. So why are you going to let your mind, your thoughts, your emotions be dictated by some anonymous text messager? He or she could be out for cold-blooded revenge for all you know. We feel bad for even reporting on this service. But we’d like to raise awareness of the issue so people don’t get trapped in it. Don’t listen to random people when it comes to your love life. Only you can decide who is right for you and who is not. Hell, we’d recommend shutting out your friends, too, when it comes to issues like this. We’ve had friends ruin at least a handful of what should have been fruitful relationships. Go away, PlayerBlock, and mind your own damn business. Just because you can’t find a good date doesn’t mean we can’t. [CNET News]]]>
