I toast the gals of Sex and The City with a cosmo and this fact from the following video: 66% of women ages 25 to 44 are single in Manhattan! According to this short "Dating to Win" sent to me from Kai of Current TV, one way to find love is to hire a dating coach such as Nancy Slotnick in New York City. She'll help you "turn your cablight on" through advice on how to create a man-friendly living space and more.

Inspirational True Story - She's engaged!
Here an Inspirational True Story from a Sock Club member. I'm using her first initial to keep it anonymous. Enjoy!
I met my fiance (he's Chinese-American Christian) online on ChristianCafe.com. Actually, it's really funny--you know G works for e-Harmony and during Labor Day weekend 2007 they had a free matches weekend on e-Harmony. She told me to do that--so I did--but I GOT NOTHING!! You think with 17 million members, I could at least have 1 match? Well, anyways, so I wasn't getting any matches that weekend from e-Harmony so I went to ChristianCafe.com to try it out. They were having a free 7-day trial promotion to counter-act e-Harmony's free communication weekend. Since finding an Asian-American Christian guy was important to me, I said "What the heck"...I filled out ChristianCafe's profile (which only took me half an hour to do) and once I had a profile, I could do a search.
I found some "matches" that met my criteria, but his profile stood out since
1. He was a Christian, and Chinese-American (which are my must-haves)
2. He likes to help the homeless! (Which is a ministry that is dear to my heart).
3. He loves to cook (which is very near and dear to my heart!)
So, I "winked" and sent him an e-mail saying that I enjoyed his profile. He e-mailed me a few days later and that's how it all got started. We started talking on the phone about 10 days after exchanging e-mails and he came to LA for 1 week end of October and that's when we knew we were "it" for one another!
Seriously Pearl, I've told a lot of my friends that maybe some of the girls may need to go with some "marginalized" guys (meaning they are bad dressers, kinda socially awkward, etc)...you never know what you can find if you dust off and smooth some of the edges. I mean, he was a horrible dresser (I've helped to changed that), looked older than he is (since he has grey hair, but I've made him professionally dye his hair) and somewhat overweight (we're both eating healthier). That is just the outside which we can change/improve....but what drew me was his character and his love and consideration for me. So, please tell the girls to not overlook the "marginalized" guys--if they're willing to roll their sleeves and do some work, they can find a diamond in the rough!!!
Keep encouraging the girls and thanks so much for organizing a group like this---us single gals need support in order to find our mates!
Love,
C
