You can’t put two people together who don’t want to be together. So, if your matchmaking experiment isn’t working out, it might be time to give up. The magnetic pull between two people isn’t something you can manufacture or even encourage. It will just happen when it’s meant to happen. Don’t feel guilty. Just switch your energy to a different endeavor. Instead of setting people up, just hang out with them and enjoy their company.

Those with big opinions and hot ideas are especially inspiring right now. Get involved in politics, work in the arts, or maybe volunteer for a larger-than-life cause and vastly increase your odds of finding someone inspiring.

Everything could fall into place to make this a super day for you and your loved one. Try to knock off work early and treat yourselves to a spontaneous evening on the town.

Everyone has their weakness. Not spending on yourself is easy. It’s not spending on others that’s your big problem. Don’t tie your compassionate side to your wallet.
