Did they stop updating this almost 4 months ago after day 4?

This is hilarious. I get the feeling that the guy wasn't feeling it so much, judging by the commentary on the final day.

Anyway, it totally strikes me as a geeky designer thing. Two designers got together, and I think they just wanted to make a pretty website. (BTW, it's Wordpress. Does that make it better or worse?) The experiment was secondary and kind of fell flat, like when I spend six hours designing and building a custom blog platform/template and then only post one or two things on it.

They've just started publishing:

Good point, it needs a date published along with the day it actually happened.

I don't think so. From the facebook links, it has only recently started.

If somebody took me to 'couples therapy' on date two there'd be no date three.

What a fascinating idea, a shame they didn't stick with it!

They did - they just waited till the end of their experiment to begin publishing the outcome.

It's interesting, but that's not really how dating and attraction works.

It's also funny because day 4's survey seemed to indicate they were feeling it more than the other days.

If I were to guess, I'd guess that she ended it.

This reminds me that I don't miss dating.

So they're both designers, but they use periods instead of spaces?
