Amy Goyette So who are you going out with this week? Dating was always a big issue to students at Mac. Some peo- ple followed a versatile route, going out with a different per- son every week. Senior jodi Loyd explained, Ml liked going out with different people to ex- plore diverse personalities and to find common interests. Some courageous people braved the Russian Roulette of relationships: blind dating. Senior Linda Choi voiced her opinion of this chancy practice, I hated blind dating! As a favor to my friend, I went out with a friend of the guy she wanted to date. Both the date and the guy were horrible! It seemed almost everyone dread- ed blind dates, junior Darla Trenum contributed. The subject of Dutch treat often came up. Most guys were ambivalent about Dutch dating. Senior Marc Neilson com- mented, When you asked a girl out, on the first date, the guy paid for everything. But if you continued to date the same girl, she politely paid for herself from time to time. Usually, the girls l went out with offered to pay for themselves anywayf' Some girls felt that the guy should always pay. 'fWell, especially if the date happened to be a romantic, candlelight dinner, senior Lisa Finan amended. Some people carried on record-breaking relationships. These people Uwent togetheru for weeks, months, even years, to the amazement of friends, and sometimes, the disapproval of parents. These long-lasting relationships had disadvan- tages as well as advantages, I had a relationship with the same person for three and a half years. It did give me a cer- tain sense of security, but it also hampered other possible rela- tionships that might have been more fulfilling, injected Loyd. Girlfriends and boyfriends of people who had already graduated sometimes had a hard time with the dating game. Senior Amy Galyon, whose boyfriend Charles jor- dan graduated the year before she did, clarified, It was okay if our weekends were sometimes too busy for dating because Charles ate lunch with me at least two times a weekfi The subject of dating was always on the tip of everyone's tongue. Who dated whom, blind dates that turned into fiascos. and who had just broken up were objects of much discussion at Mac.
