Email: Fishes in the sea [EH]

You explain the fishing metaphor quite imaginatively. I'm sure it applies as a rule, though I hate to think of dating in competitive Darwinian terms as if it were a Survivor show. I'm too much of a romantic for that. Oh, I understand men's motives, even if I can't conceive of myself as being that shallow. It's in the genes, I suppose; we're just supposed to rise above that. I'm just glad most women are "deep" [regarding relationships].
