There’s a new dating concept known as Soif du Coeur (Thirsty Heart) just launched that involves buying a €3 bottle of wine which contains a code printed on the back label – revealed once the bottle has been emptied. Prospective daters then enter their code and details on the Soif du Coeur website, which matches them up with a potential partner and fellow wine lover. How innovative!
The project was launched by two Bordeaux-based wine wholesalers, Omnivins and Chateau en Bordeaux to promote a new Vins de Pays de l’Atlantique range.
350,000 bottles of Soif du Coeur wine have been sold to participating supermarkets (pink for girls, blue for boys) since its soft launch on 21 March. The website will be officially launched at Vinexpo 2007 in June.

A question many of us forget to ask, especially when we moan that no-one is showing you any interest!
What exactly are you looking for in a partner, and why would they notice you? I’m not suggesting you think too hard about this, but you need to be aware of how people relate to you. Understand your motivations for love and you are a step closer to attracting a potential partner – it’s all about sharing common interests when it comes to relationships.
Once you truly understand yourself you will become far more attractive.
Start by noting all your objectives (as they stand) and what you currently want out of life, then do something about it… want to make new friends, well find a new bar!
The mirror is a great invention, use it; what can you do to make yourself more attractive to the opposite sex. Maybe a new hair do, style or even just a short work out per day down the gym.

This is a natural phenomenon. When a man takes a look in the mirror he sees someone completely different, normally far better looking and 10lbs lighter. Why the hell is this?
Well, there are three main reasons according to research:
• Thanks to the media, we have become accustomed to extremely rigid and uniform standards of beauty. TV, billboards, magazines etc mean that we see ‘beautiful people’ all the time, more often than members of our own family, making exceptional good looks seem real, normal and attainable – we want to compete for female attention.
• Men generally have a more positive body image than women.
• Men may be feeling insecure and vulnerable.
