Beaming up a Blind Date

Personally, I’m way past the dating game, having been happily married for several years. But, as an angsty teen with a passion for the more nerdy things in life – many of which begin with the prefixes astro-, star-, and chem- Trek Passions would have been a lifesaver. If you’re looking for love and haven’t yet found your Lieutenant Uhura, your Han Solo, or even your Ford Prefect, then this site could be the place to go. Essentially, it’s an off the dial free dating site for sci fi fans and it does exactly what it says on the tin. It interfaces lonely hearts, enables matter transportation of an amorous kind, and basically presses all the right buttons among the millions of Trekkies, Starwarsies, Clarkies, and perhaps even Wyndhamies out there.

McCoy: [to Spock] You see, I feel sorrier for you than I do for him [referring to Kirk] because you’ll never know the things that love can drive a man to. The ecstasies, the miseries, the broken rules, the desperate chances, the glorious failures and the glorious victories. All of these things you’ll never know, simply because the word “love” isn’t written into your book. Good night, Spock.

So, sign up, but watch out it’s a scary worlds out there…
