But, the funny thing is that I don't remember it in the same way. That is, there were male and female friends and then there were the girls I dated: most of the time these two groups of females didn't overlap. I guess it was seen as like dating one's own sister or the likes; you just didn't think of it. The thing I really miss about that time in my life was that people seemed to be so much more like real people. We got to know and like or dislike each other based primarily on personality. Now, out in the post-college world it's physique, job, social standing, and financial health,... and then personality is considered! It's like I'm no longer "me" but a set of social & economic stats. - John P.S. I also agree that it's a very bad idea to date any work people just for the reason you mentioned, Weezel. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- __)) "Glass ceilings?
