Finding love

Ok, Brainiacs: If you’re looking for love, then lighten up! Your fellow singles are more than twice as likely to fall for your wit than your intellect. From a survey by Match.com, researchers wanted to find out what makes our hearts go pitter-patter when we meet a potential soul mate. What they found? A lot of *what you believe about romance might be leaving you home alone on Saturday night.*

Here's why:
* Good news for nice guys- The notion that *girls go for bad boys is
a myth.* Over two thirds of the ladies say they are looking for a
nice guy.
* Which could explain why Predictability is so exciting. *Singles
are twice as likely to fall in love with someone who is a planner,
stable, and fairly predictable.* Risk takers need not apply.
* If you're a *workaholic, you'd better get used to being alone*
even if you're raking in the big bucks. Money's not as important
as you might think. Nine out of ten singles are ready to fall for
a moderate success with a balanced life instead of you "I'll be a
few hours late tonight" types.
* And don't be afraid to speak up- *Talkative singles are nearly
twice as likely to find love* as strong silent types.
* Finally, *playing "hard-to-get" is a great way to see your sweetie
start dating someone else*- Two thirds of singles say they are
more likely to fall for someone they know is interested than they
are for someone they have to chase.
