He: What are you hearting so vigorously about on Facebook?
Me: Ali (just used the powers contained in a book I posted to her to find the man of her dreams and she's ridiculously loved up.
He: Powers contained in a book, huh?
Me: It's all in the mind. No actually, the book basically just recommends exercising self-restraint and not being too needy or overly grateful at the receipt of male attention. Simple enough...
He: You need a book to tell you that? :-P
Me: Hehehe. Sometimes! It's also full of empowering and loving messages about staying yourself and blah di blah blah. It's actually very good! We've been sending it around the world (starting with me sending it to ali - she's now sending it to another girl in NYC) for girls we think need a bit of encouragement when it comes to dating. I've given the book to another friend here. It's a good read! Not as oprah-ish as it sounds... truly!
He: You’re such a hippie sometimes.
Me: I know. If I were less materialistic, I would be full blown.

Love it! Truth be told I can't believe how easy it was was. I didn't really need to try - in the past I feel like I've always tried too hard. And you're totally right - it wasn't so much following the book to the letter, but more just taking my time and not allowing desperation to cloud my judgment. There is something to be said for playing it cool, but at the same time you do have to give a little encouragement - and it appears I gave just the right amount at the right time. Woo! Maybe I should email Zoe Foster to let her know of the success - whaddya think?
Absolutely! I think she would love that!
You are sooooo smitten!
