Again want to share with you what I have had read in Glamour Magazine by Margarita Bertsos
15 Love Rules for Single Women
1. “Guys are like subway trains. Don’t run after them; another one is on its way.”
—canuck, on glamour.com
2. “If he says he isn’t ready for a relationship, believe him.”
—Kerri Otto, 32, Traverse City, Mich.
3. “Marry someone you want to sit next to for the rest of your life.”
—Megan Smollins, 26, Astoria, N.Y.
4. “My grandfather had some gems: ‘Don’t be with a stupid man just to be with any man.’ ‘A real man always takes care of his family.’ ‘You don’t want to be walked over, and you don’t want a man you can walk over, either.’ And my favorite: ‘Don’t be a fool, Michelle. You can be anything you want, but don’t be a fool.’”
—Michelle Porter, 28, Charlotte, N.C.
5. “Don’t trust anyone who doesn’t laugh.”
—Maya Angelou
6. “The guys who were nerdy in high school make the best husbands.”
—Jennifer Goldstein, 31, Brooklyn
7. “To love oneself is the beginning of a life-long romance.”
—Oscar Wilde
8. “You can tell a lot about a guy by how he treats your cab driver.”
—Alanna Sobel, 25, Washington, D.C.
9.“If he likes you, you’ll know. If he doesn’t, you’ll be ‘confused.’”
—sayitloud, on glamour.com
10. “Respect yourself. I said to my ex, ‘I’m not going to make you my everything if I’m only your something.’”
—Alyssa Stabile, 19, Boston
11.“I used to be into bad boys but kept getting burned. Then I heard this: ‘Say no to the guys you usually say yes to, and yes to the ones you normally say no to.’ I did, and it totally worked. I have a great husband now.”
—Laura Knudsen, 27, Charlottetown, Prince Edward Island
12.“Never marry a man who has no friends.”
—Father Pat Connor, 79-year-old Catholic priest, as quoted by Maureen Dowd in her New York Times column
13.“Never tattoo a guy’s name on your body!”
—Rebekah Rankin, 27, Scottsdale, Ariz.
14.“Personal hygiene is part of the package.”
—Jim Carrey
15.“It’s OK to show up at a guy’s house with a dozen roses and declare your undying affection. It’s OK to have too much to drink and call your ex 20 times and then to be mortally embarrassed when you realize your number must have shown up on his caller ID. It’s OK, because making a fool of yourself for love is ultimately about you, how much you have to give and the distances you will travel to keep your heart wide open when everything around you makes you feel like slamming it shut and soldering it closed.”
—Veronica Chambers, Glamour’s features director and author of The Joy of Doing Things Badly
-Leny: and may I add the number
16. Never lose your personal identity and financial independence. Continue working so that what ever happens you can take care of your self (and kids,in my case as single parent)
