My computer's quest for her perfect mate

Ms. Dell Latitude came to this town with me, and didn't rest much before venturing out into the dating scene. She's been spoiled when she was dating Mr. Telus Optik in our previous home. Things really clicked between them and they were going really fast. Poor Ms. Dell had to move with me to this town because I was married to Mr. Hero. And which hero stays put in one place, right?

Ms. Dell's spirits weren't too bad in the first day or two of casual dating. She found Mr. Café Guido to be quite charming, they connected well, and he offered her all kinds of goodies. The problem is Mr. Guido is too well known in town, everyone visits him and it can get loud sometimes. Ms. Dell likes to have some peace and quiet. So, after the morning date, she crossed the street to see Mr. Public Library.

Mr. Library was quite a bit different from Mr. Guido. He was quiet, down to earth, and didn't offer any frills. Ms. Dell liked that a lot, and they connected well too. However, Mr. Library was a man of habit and kept a strict schedule. He would never see her on Mondays and Sundays, and his hours during the week were limited too (often unavailable before noon). Ms. Dell knew it was hard to change him since he's a bit older and he's well established.

So, on the third day, Ms. Dell decided to do some speed dating to increase her chances of finding a good mate. She met Mr. North I. College and Mr. A.N.W., but both were a disappointment. The former was almost her dream came true - studious, but not uptight; quiet, but there are social times. Too bad, when they started talking to each other, he just didn't get her on a deeper level (when she brought out VPN). This was a deal breaker for her, so she left after an hour and headed to Mr. A.N.W. This one was full of promise on the outside, advertising he is available for her many hours a day, every day. But, once she sat down, she found he couldn't even communicate at all! Utterly disappointed, she goes back to spend the rest of her afternoon with Mr. Library and then Mr. Guido.

"People must think I am a whore!" Ms. Dell says to herself and to me. I consoled her and told her things should get better soon. It's not like I haven't tried helping her - I did some matchmaking before we even moved here, the match is called Mr. Xplornet. But the matchmaker Mr. Source is always busy setting up other people, we have to wait our turn. Ms. Dell and I can only wait...

We hope when we finally get to meet Mr. Xplornet that he and Ms. Dell will be in a stable and happy relationship! He is her last hope in this small town...
