Loves Me, Loves Me ... NOT!

The Romantic Ritual

by Mike Durrett
for About.com

What's next in the ever-changing, mindboggling computer age? Virtual plucking.

That sentimental, psychic ritual you've always performed in a garden or the dark recesses of a florist's shop has rooted online. Grab a digital flower, removing its petals one-by-one to answer the mysteries of love. "She loves me. ... She loves me not. ... She loves me. ..."

Don't fret, girls, there's a proper bud for you, too, courtesy of Nickelodeon.

The hard part is catching the flower. It resents being torn apart and puts up quite a fight. (Hmm, that sounds like me during our wedding.)

In Shockwave. --What? You need the plug-in? We know where.

Play: Loves Me, Loves Me ... NOT!
