Don't
go looking for romance, singles consultant says ...
As a
romance coach and expert on living a successful single life,
Wilmington native Renee Piane is often asked about health
clubs as a place for meeting people.
Her
response holds a touch of paradox: Health clubs are a great
place to meet people but don't go there with that expectation.
Go there to work out and enjoy yourself.
It's
a mistake to put too much pressure on meeting Mr. or Ms.
Right at a club, she says. The odds are not in your favor.
Piane tells men that they'll probably have to connect with
100 women before 10 will be interested.
And
they should be ready for rejection if they're too obviously
smitten. One of the biggest complaints that Piane hears
from women is that men at clubs come on "with too strong
a sex vibe." It's an issue she writes about in hernew
book LOVE MECHANICS: Power Tools to Build Successful
Relationships With Women.
"I
tell men to look at each person as a somebody, not somebody
you want to score with," she says. "The key is
to flirt with life and be kind to everyone. That kind of
openness helps you relax so that when that really special
person walks by, the flirting will be a natural part of
what you do."
Piane,
now a Los Angeles consultant who hopes to start a series
of singles networking events in Wilmington this month, is
a fan of single men and women who are friends going to health
clubs together.
"Women
friends for guys are the best," she says. "They
can sell a man's positive traits with an attractive woman
better than he can sell them himself."
