So...I made an account on a dating site. And now I could with someone around to tell me this is not necessarily the most insane thing since Caligula made his horse a senator. Fortunately I haven't paid for anything so there is still plenty of time to panic and get rid of it.
Ah, Massive Anxiety. Haven't seen you for a while, nice to have you back!

Hi anxiety-ridden you
Well I don't think you are mad for going onto a dating site but it will be mad if you do not take really good care when you meet someone for the first few times, also do be honest and don't over-inflate yourself, even down to the depression, because you want to meet someone (I presume) who will accept you and like you as you are.
I met my husband through the Guardian Soulmates column, you might try similar depending upon your interests.
Good luck, sleep well tonight, have lovely dreams!
You'll have loads of fun! I know millions of people have met their other halves on dating sites. I'm a member of one, I just always forget to log on and check my messages. Don't have time for dating anyway! X
Part of the anxiety is that it will affect me too much, that it'll become something that gets me down. But then if I never do anything then the anxiety over it will only get worse.
If joining a dating site is the height of insanity for you then you really need to try harder.
Making Incitatus a senator was a long way from the most insane thing that Caligula did. He also sent an army to pick up shells on the coast of Britain as trophies in a victory over Neptune ... and a lot of nasty stuff with his family members.
May be you could go and pick up seashells on your fist date?
