[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Luck and timing play a bigger role in mating success than people are willing to admit. If I turned right on a Tuesday instead of left on a Wednesday, or didn't move to a certain city, my life would be completely different. You are analyzing factors that might not have much to with your individual situation.

And stop being so hard on yourself. I would be that a lot of people on here are average.[/quote]

Bump. Yes - luck and timing. The way my husband and I met was so much about luck and timing. We are a great fit, as in "there's a lid for every pot."

My example of this luck+timing: I went to a public event alone, with the plan to walk around and see how the day goes. I was standing in a crowd, noticed a guy, glanced at him for a split second, he didn't make much of an impression, and I went on looking at the happenings. There was a woman in the crowd standing alone with a provocative poster, as a one-person protest. She seemed to me brave and interesting, I wanted to talk to her but didn't know what to say. That guy who'd been standing nearby must've said "how's it going?" or something like that, to which I answered something like "I'm wondering about that woman over there. Do you want to walk up with me and ask her about the message on the poster?" After that conversation, he and I hit it off right away.

If it wasn't for the luck+timing, I doubt he and I would be together today. I'm bad at small talk and probably wouldn't have started talking with him if not for that woman to break the ice with.[/quote]
