The price of love

We all think that you can't put a price on love. But with statistics, it seems that you can. They have worked out that, on average, a woman will date 24 men and spend over £2,000 before finding true love. If you are thinking about dating 24 men, it can feel like a challenge and an expensive one but obviously this will also be fun and you will certainly have a good time. It's crazy to think that you have to spend £2000 on average to find love but what this means is that we spend money to improve how we feel on the night of the date : new haircut, new clothes, new shoes, make-up, perfume, cabs....it will all add up and will add up to the cost of drinks and meals... But you know as well as I do that you can't go on a date without a little bit of spending to make you feel extra sexy like new lingerie or a nice dress to show your cleavage!

While men are still traditionally paying the bill of the first date, this shows how much women are prepared to spend to make each date successful. Even with the credit crunch, women are prepared to invest a significant amount of money to feel sexy and confident. Also statistics reveal that women like to go dutch on dates and prefer men who are sober with their spending that men who flash their cash to prove that they have done well and are doing well.
