Given the general pulchritude of the onboard entertainment, we may be seeing even more posts like this one from Cruise Critic folllowing the National Review’s 2007 Arctic cruise:

Hmm, when was that NRO 2006 Rhine cruise exactly?

My first onboard romance.Hello everyone. I’m new here and I just got back from my first cruise and was lucky enough to engage in an onboard romance with an amazing crew member.
It was pretty much love at first sight and we spent the better part of the cruise hanging out with eachother at every available opportunity. Luckily for both of us, he was part of the entertainment staff and hanging out with the passengers was a huge part of his job. When he’d get his schedule the night before, he’s show it to me and ask me to show up at all of the activities he was hosting for the day. On top of that, I spent an hour with him everyday while he did his library duty and he met up with me after he was off at the bar every night.
It was amazing and wonderful, and at the end he gave me his email to keep in touch with him. I’m not exactly sure what to expect out of it, but he made several mentions of visiting me when his contract ends and even asked me to wait for him. I suppose now it’s time to play the “waiting game” and see what happens.
Anyone who can offer some friendly/not so friendly advice or words of wisdom?
I got off the ship on October 13th and sent him an email on Tuesday, still no response. I understand that he’s very busy.
Of course he’s busy, DUH. Those Corner posts and magnum opuses about liberal fascism don’t just write themselves, you know.
