Mr. Right in 6 weeks - week 5 and 6

A few things make sense to me in week 5 and 6, while others surprised me:

1. Be yourself

2. Don't ever think he is your Mr. Right, so you won't fall head over toe

3. Expect nothing - No expectation, no frustration.

4. Connected or not, say 'Yes' to 'it'. (Can you guess what 'it' is? hint, it starts with 'S', not 'M')

The book has been completed, the journey has just started.

PS. One of the pick up lines is "I like your shirt."
I heard that before! It was in a bookstore. My Mr. Wrong and I was wondering around browsing books in different sections. Then suddenly, "'Nice shirt." I looked up and found a lady smiling gracefully at him. He said "Thank you." with a smile of victory. It sure felt good receiving a compliment from a stranger. I totally didn't realize it was a pick up line. Silly me. Now I wonder what could have happened if I was not around...

"National Singles Week" was started by the Buckeye Singles Council in Ohio in the 1980s to celebrate single life and recognize singles and their contributions to society.

Do you qualify as a single?

If you were single in 2006, you were among the 92 million, that's 42 percent of all U.S. residents 18 and older.

If you are a woman like me , you are 54% of the all the singles.
Among which 18% have never been married, 25% are divorced, and 15% are widowed.

The bad news for girls are, the ratio between single men and woman is 86 to 100.
Of all the households nationwide, 44% are maintained by singles, and 27% with a single occupant,

After calculation, I'm among the 9 million. Gosh, will I ever feel alone again...

BTW, as of 2002, there were 904 dating service companies nationwide. Any guess on the number this year?
