valentine's day is round the corner...is there any collective action possible at a batch level for bringing together aspiring couples???

i can see both males nd females around me wanting to propose someone without having the guts to do it...what they are afraid of is fear of rejection from other side in a public space...

To get around this problem, what if at class level we organize a secret voting where every person can vote for one person he/she wants to be with on V-day? a pair is assumed to be formed if 2 individuals vote for each other...the election commissioner(a respected individual among us who is married) will convey the results by mail to the pair if there is a hit...

all people who dont receive a mail can stop dreaming nd prepare for end term..nd the ones who receive mail can revel in their glory!!!

ny issues, kindly raise...

thanks

It's a nice initiative proposed on the part of Joseph but i do not agree that IRMA is the kind of place to conduct this kind of an experiment.
There are very few places in India where one would get this kind of freedom and I count IRMA as one among those places. Even the people in my batch are open to ideas so it does not seem that bad an idea to directly ask out the person whom one likes. In the worst case scenario if one does get rejected, one can always take it as a learning curve and improve for the next time, additionally, his / her privacy would remain which i doubt would be the case in the 'election commissioner' thing.
