Can The Millionaire Matchmaker Help Me Find Love?
By Sarah Showfety posted
When it came to my dating life, I wasn't sure I should listen to Patti Stanger, host of Bravo's The Millionaire Matchmaker and author of the book Become Your Own Matchmaker: 8 Easy Steps for Attracting Your Perfect Mate. Could someone hoisting a gold, ruby-encrusted Cupid's arrow on her book cover, whose ample bosom was jammed into a white Liberace pantsuit, help me, an outdoorsy New Yorker with an A cup seeking a sweet, humble, non-cologne wearing guy with no roommates?
I was doubtful. But as an early thirties lady swinging and missing on the New York dating scene, I figured, "What have you got to lose, Singles McGonigle?" See if she's got some news you can use.
So I did. The first thing she suggests is a 30–90 day "dating detox" of attitude adjustment, positive thoughts, demon tackling and absolutely no dates (I was way ahead of the game at 53 days and counting). During this phase, Patti recommends getting lost in a favorite book, a long hot bath, listening to happy music, taking a class, cleaning house and petting something furry. All which caused me to think, "Seriously, Pats? Reading and scratching a dog's back are gonna make me more dateable?" Dating Detox: I Took A 3-Year Break From Men
