Ok, after no investigation whatsoever, I think that I’ve definitely identified a currently blank space in the social networking environment.
We need a LinkedIn for relationships. It’ll be called OverShare. Or should it be OvrShr? I think web 2.0 laws dictate that you remove as many vowels as possible.

So lets start with the basics, it would have to have the following:
About Me
- Age
- Relationship status
- Desired relationship status
- Orientation
- Religion
- Location
- Education
Nothing too scary there. This is more or less the standard sort of info you’d find anywhere, with the addition of the “Desired relationship status” field because you might be dating someone you want to marry, or you might be married to someone you are planning on leaving.

My Personality
- Romantic rating
- Emotional Stability rating
- Logic rating
- Spiritual rating
- Public comments
Here you’d get into more detail on your own personality, rating yourself out of five in the above fields. Are you a romantic person? Are you a spiritual person? Are you bipolar and illogical?
My Sexuality
- Orientation
- Things I’ve tried
- Things I’d like to try
- Things I won’t try
- Public comments
- Selective comments (hide from certain sex/orientation/people/ex’s?)
This would essentially be an expanded, more detailed version of the orientation field from the basic info section. Do you like boys? Do you like girls who look like boys? Do you like girls who look like boys to tie you up in public and walk on you in heels while someone in a latex bodysuit photographs it? Do you like kissing? Yes or no, check the box.
My Relationship(s)
- Status (Previous/Current/Future)
- Commitment level (out of five: 1=acquaintance, 2=friend, 3=special, 4=relationship, 5=permanent)
- Person’s name
- Timeline
- Emotional Rating (out of five and n/a)
- Intellectual Rating (out of five and n/a)
- Sexual Rating (out of five and n/a)
- Spiritual Rating (out of five and n/a)
- Marriage Potential Rating (out of five and n/a)
- Positive and negative baggage
- Public comments
- Selective comments (hide from certain sex/orientation/people/ex’s?)
This is really the meat of the site. You would fill out one of these for each previous and current relationship. You’d also be able to add either planned or desired future relationships. Filling in a desired future relationship could also be linked to a dating site, to allow you to instantly connect with someone that matches your needs. They would then be able to refer to OverShare to see how religious you are, if you prefer intelligent partners, and if you are too much, or not enough of a slut for them.

These would be networked with everyone you’ve had a relationship with, and theirs would be networked out as well. In the end you would be able to trace through people’s romantic history and see how everyone connects to everyone else. You may have indirectly had sex with hundreds of people.
The really cool part is rating people. People love judging other people (see Hot or Not) and ranking things using stars, this combines both of those. And if you think that your entire sexual history with someone cannot be summarized in a rating out of five (I can’t imagine why) then feel free to elaborate in the public or selective comments area.
The key to making people comfortable with divulging all of this is being able to selectively hide certain information from certain people. You may not want to your ex to know that that thing they did to your thing hurt but you didn’t say stop because you wanted to do that thing to their thing too. Because of that, making information selectively available is key and I haven’t exactly worked out how to do that without crippling the site entirely. Hide too little and no one uses it, hide too much and it’s pointless.
But I really think this site would be a resounding success. Everyone wants to know the details of everyone else’s lives, and these are the most interesting parts. It would be supersized-dencentralized-self-moderated gossip.
