Dating Across Satellite Signals

I am constantly amazed at how much you can really get to know someone on Skype! The first time Tarjei and I ever skyped each other, it surprised me how much I had the sense that I was actually talking to someone sitting in the same room with me.


Needless to say, we've gotten to be very creative in our dating on Skype. We've found you can read, play games, learn languages, share pictures, tell stories, and even cook together on skype BUT today I got such a chuckle from our latest skype fascination. During our conversation, Tarjei recommended that I learn a little something about ventriloquism. Before long, we were reading all about the secrets to ventriloquism and trying out the techniques. There's nothing quite more hilarious that trying to talk to someone without moving your lips...especially on Skype!

If you want to try it out sometime....here's an interesting website.

  1. What are the options when you date on Skype? If you are a little creative, you can do a great number of things. Last Saturday, for example, we went bowling! Take a look at http://www.candystand.com/play/bowling-mp if you want an idea of where to bowl online with friends and loved ones.

    Other activities inlcude:
    - Cooking
    - Reading stories to each other
    - Look up interesting articles
    - Listen to music
    - Watch a movie
    - Create a blog
    - Plan vacations
    - Talk about all and nothing and just enjoying time together

    Have any ideas? You are more than welcome to offer your suggestions.
