Playing With Matches: Feeling the Burn of New York's Online Dating Scene
On the surface, Dylan Fitzpatrick seems to have everything a young, single man could want: A successful career, a Manhattan bachelor pad, and access to all the beautiful, sophisticated women New York City has to offer. But despite everything, he just can’t find the right woman. So, after one too many disastrous encounters, Dylan swallows his pride and signs up with an online dating service, hoping the miracles of modern technology can help him find his perfect match. The results are painfully hilarious! In this true-life memoir, Dylan is our guide to the brave new world of the online dating scene. Armed with a keen eye, a witty pen, and unflinching honesty, he takes us on a whirlwind tour of dating debacles that stretches from the trendiest Manhattan hotspots to late-night hookups at business hotels, from the sunny beaches of Australia to a swinger’s resort in Mexico. Dylan spares no one, least of all himself, in this honest—and honestly funny—account of the new mating rituals of the modern world. As he deals with overdramatic wannabe actresses, exotic foreign beauties, and a couple of just plain crazies, he details his sexual conquests—and defeats—in a romantic quest that veers from laugh-out-loud funny to excruciatingly cringe-worthy. Playing With Matches is sure to hit home with any guy who’s “been there”—or any woman who wants to know how guys really think.
