Expect to learn why happily ever after is so hard to find, why people have difficulty envisioning their romantic future, why we only get 3 wishes for our partner, the biggest mistakes people make when choosing a long-term partner, why some people are drawn to relationships that are really tough, if it is possible to optimise your chance of finding the right partner by increasing your odds of timing and randomness and much more...
