My point is because of the way tech companies been communicating to us over the last 10 years, that most women (who are not tech literate like you) do not find pleasure in trying to set something up when you have no idea where to start, read a manual which will take time you don’t have, or have to ask some spotty teenager in Currys who makes you feel like a complete idiot.

My dad ordered a camera online a few weeks back… and when it arrived, he hated it. I told him he should order mine – and explained all the features and benefits. I felt somewhat smug when he agreed.
This week I kept getting messages that my “start up disc” was full… so I researched online and fixed the problem myself! Almost as pleasing as when I learnt how to change a car tire by myself.

In general, I think the reason people don’t like online dating is because it’s synonymous with feeling like you’ve given up on yourself.
