JM Kearns, the author of Why Mr. Right Can't Find You, recommends that women be more proactive:
Beyond chance encounters, women should venture into the real world to broaden the net, he says. Kearns suggests hanging out in bookstores and libraries, and if you see a prospect, smile. "Even Mr. Right needs encouragement. Your smile can be any smile. I don't care if it is nervous, pale or twitchy. If it is a smile, he will know he is allowed to interrupt your reading and speak to you" (Macleans, 29 January 2007).What do you think? If libraries were promoted as meet-your-mate places, would more people go? =)
