1. Leave the past in the past
过去的就过去了
When you meet someone new, leave any negative feelings or past heartbreaks just where they should be—in the past.
当你遇见新的合适的对象，让以往所有的消极情绪或伤心事都留在过去。
2. You won’t meet someone new in your living room
宅在家里你遇不到新对象
Well, maybe a cute guy will deliver your new sofa, but chances are you’re going to meet someone by getting out there and trying new things—online dating, taking a class, etc. Tell everyone, especially your married friends, that you’re looking to meet someone and ALWAYS go to parties. Because you truly never know who you’ll meet.
好吧，也许会有个帅小伙把你订的沙发送货上门，但更实在的是你要走出门口去相遇，并尝试一些新鲜的玩意儿--网络交友、参加学习班等等。告诉别人，尤其你那群已婚的朋友，你在找对象，你也总会参加聚会。因为你真的不知道你会不会遇见那个TA。
3. Give the guy a chance
给他一个机会
When you were 20 your list was “he must be tall, dark and handsome.” Try going against type. It just might be a perfect fit.
当你20岁时，你的理想要求是“他必须要高，黝黑的肤色，还要帅。” 抛开这些标准再试试。也许他会成为你的完美另一半。
4. Look at blind dates like a first date
把相亲当初次约会看待
Many women met their husbands on blind dates, and you can too! If you’re not sure you want to sit in a noisy restaurant, go out and do something fun. One of my friends went to a baseball game, and she and her date each brought a friend. They had a blast and got married one year later.
很多女性都是通过相亲遇到他们现在的丈夫的，你也可以！如果你不太想坐在嘈杂的饭馆里，那就去外面，玩一些有趣的。我有个朋友是在一次棒球比赛相亲的，她和她的约会对象各自带了一个朋友去。他们玩得很开心。一年后，他们结婚了。
5. Time is on your side
慢慢来
Take your time in getting to know your guy and don’t feel in a rush to meet his children or have him meet yours. It starts with the two of you. Make sure this is someone you want in your life.
花点时间去了解你的对象，不要急匆匆地去看他的孩子或是让他见你的孩子。一切从你们倆开始。确保这个男人是你生命中要找到的那个人。
6. Someone to come home to
有人在等你回家
When you’re ready to move in together you will discover how wonderful it is to come home to the one you love. Be prepared for some give and take—for example, over which of each others’ belongings stay or go.
当你准备好搬到一起住时，你会发现回到一个有爱人在的家是多么的美好！为互相迁就做好准备吧--比如，双方所有物的去留。
7. Your wedding, your way
你的婚礼，按你的方式来
Now you’re in love and it’s time to have your wedding exactly how you want it. Remember it is all about you and the man of your dreams. Whatever you want is the way to go.
现在你正处于热恋，是时候按你想的方式举办婚礼了。记住，你和你梦中情人就是一切，只管去做你想要的。
8. Happily ever after can happen to you
从此以后幸福常伴你左右
It’s never too late to find true love. We did, and you can too!
真爱永远都不嫌迟。我们做到了，你也可以！
