Re: Close encounter...of the opposite sex kind
|
How coincidental. Was having my morning coffee, decided to turn on tv for company, and a minute later the host said we will be talking about "Desperate to Date" after next break. This was on NBC this morning. That caught my ear. For those who didn't see it, here is a synopsis:
A 30yr old attractive man from London,England couldn't find the love of his life, so he started up a website called "Are you my wife.com". Long story short, he traveled for 12 months to 13 countries, had 53 dates, and is now dating an attractive blonde from his hometown. Go figure.
What the NBC panel said was the obvious. Why look elsewhere, when your dream girl or person could be right under your nose. Some facts they pointed out were:
** 27% of men too shy to make 1st move even when meeting their dream woman.
** 68% of men too shy to act on an ecounter of interest
Best advice the 30yr old gave was to keep your dates, K.I.S.S. (keep it simple stupid)
The consensus of the panel on why so many of us are desperate to find romance is that we are afraid to be alone.
They never said what he did for a living. Obviously he had a lot of vacation time and money was no object.
