Finance guy makes incredibly detailed dating spreadsheet
Probably didn't even need a mouse
Incredibly Detailed, Incredibly Creepy Spreadsheet Of His Match.com Prospects
Let's call this guy, oh, "Dave." Dave is a financial services employee in New York. Dave goes on Match.com, and meets women, and sometimes goes on dates with them. Then Dave goes home and enters all sorts of information into an Excel sheet, to keep track of everyone.
On April 4, Dave went on a date with Arielle. She was "very pretty," "sweet and down to earth," and had "a great personality." He hopes to see her again soon. We know this, because he entered it in his spreadsheet, along with the dates of their various Match.com interactions, her contact info, and even a little photo of her.

Moderator addition:
Apparently "Dave" gave Jezebel an interview (yeah, that always works out in your favor as a man). Anyway, according to Dave:
"I work with spreadsheets a lot," he told us. "It's a great additional tool. I work long days, go to the gym, go out on a couple of midweek dates or what not, get home late...how am I going to remember them? I'm not. So I made the spreadsheets. My comments aren't malicious or mean. This was an honest attempt to stay organized."

The guy is just keeping organised. What a bitch for sending it to all her friends.
Never trust a girl to keep a secret.
He's a tool. Why would he tell her about it talk less of sending it to her?
Exactly!
He probably should have kept this to himself... I hope his coworkers somehow don't find out. This is like infinite ammunition for office jokes.
All joking aside, you guys don't do this?
What gets measured gets managed.
LOLZ dude gave his little black book to a girlfriend???
I actually thought he would have a lot more details than that. If you're dating 6 girls within a period of 2 weeks then you should probably write down some specific important details from the conversation as well hahaha
disclosure: I don't have such a sheet.
The guy didn't learn from that NYU cover letter? Shit spreads like wildfire.
Other thing is this: how does this guy have time to go on so many dates? Shouldn't he be busting his hump to make MD?
I like the first comment on that article: "Too bad he did edit out the column farthest right, labeled, "Current Location Of Body".
Ok first of all, this guy is a friend of a friend of a friend of mine, and he works at FactSet. Hardly a "financier". It really pisses me off how whenever anyone who even remotely works for, near, or sells hot dogs on Wall Street steps slightly out of line, it becomes an "Investment Banker does X" headline.
All that aside, is this really so bad? The comments about the girls aren't overly harsh, he's just trying to keep everything straight. How is that "incredibly creepy"??? This is absolutely no different than the proverbial "little black book" that guys have been keeping since the beginning of time. Why are people so aghast at this? Do you guys seriously not keep track of this shit somehow, if not in a spreadsheet specifically?
The guy is a massive tool for sending that out to a girl - just use some common sense.
People make fun of anything to have themselves a little laugh. That's all this is. I personally don't think there was anything creepy about this. I definitely disagree with his scores though. He overscored every single girl by 1 point at least.
