Your Prince is 22 Frogs Away

I was shocked after reading this following article. Our hearts are no longer something treasured or something to be fought for and long sought after. They are thrown away, day after day, and society says that is perfectly alright.

The "average woman" is not someone I envy.

Her heart's been broken five times. And is finding true love really all the sweeter after being dumped so many times? I don't think so.

Call me crazy.

The average woman will kiss 22 men, have four long-term relationships and get her heart broken five times before meeting “the one”, a study claims. The path to true love will also see her endure six bad dates, have six one-night stands and be cheated on four times before finding her perfect match. The typical woman will have met at least one partner online, been taken on holiday by three different men and had three long- distance relationships. One-in-five even say they have a child with someone else before finding their soul mate – and most have lived with two men before they meet Mr Right. The average man will make slightly more of his single days, kissing 23 girls and having 10 one-night stands before getting round to settling down. But he will also have his heart broken six times...

"It’s just a shame we have to live through so much before finding the partner of our dreams." The survey found that the average woman will have her first boyfriend at 15, and date nine men before settling down. She will be dumped four times and will break up with someone five times."

But when they find their perfect match, women know within the first four weeks.

Alarmingly, 15 per cent of women also said they had ended up with a stalker after a bad date or relationship.

Mr Adams added: “The good news from this survey was that most of the people surveyed reckoned that they had found ‘the one’ before they were 30 – so it’s not all despair.

“Also, hopefully all the heartbreak and getting dumped will make finding true love all that sweeter.”
