Shared attraction

I've long thought that it would be convenient if people had signs that displayed if they liked someone, though i realize that could be complicated bc then you'd have to worry about whether or not they liked you back and all that. Now I'm thinking maybe some kind of electronic advice that like had the name or names of who you liked and would start beeping or something (perhaps vibrating in order to keep it more confidential) when you're around one of those people if that person also had your name in their device. Then it would get louder (or, um shakier) as you got closer to the person. Would still cause some problems (like if the members of a love triangle were in the same room) but it would help take out some of the guesswork.

I think they have websites like that, where you put in people's name and if each put in the other's name they both get emails. And I imagine facebook either has or will come up with an application to do that. Still, having it in real life would be cool.

Oh and don't read anything into the topic of this post...i like to muse about these type of things, so i dont have anyone in particular in mind as i'm typing, though i imagine the situation will come up again at some point in the future.
