(if she's not the Bravo one) is she in NY or do you have to travel outside and see her? I think this would have been a great idea for me during my single days just because I like getting the person standing on the outside and looking in opinion. They can sometimes really see much more about ourselves than we can. Have you went on any dates so far? I used to like going on dates w/the new "kid" on the block and I knew he was good to go when I would get the butterflies in my stomach, but you could keep the internal gas it would create! LOL! I would be totally into engaging in new conversations and wish upon a star this would be the "one". Yes, called me a hopeless romantic, but I've always been the one to settle down. Maybe this is why I've had many failed attempts and nope! I wasn't fatal, but I chose those under me in hopes I could change them into something new. So yeah, get back to me. I'm dying to know if it's the arrogant match maker from the Bravo Channel. *teehee*</strong> Just please tell me this is the broad sporting the jet-black hair with the bangs and Barbara Streisand nose on the Bravo Channel!!!
