Who knows you Better

Your mother or your best friend

In our weekly experiment, single people who are looking for a partner ask their mother
and their best friend to help.

This week’s single person is Charlotte Ramirez, a 25-year-old web designer. Her father
is Spanish and her mother is English. She lives in Brighton and she doesn’t have a partner
at the moment. Her mother, Alice, chooses a man she thinks is perfect for her daughter
and her best friend, Katie, chooses another. Then Charlotte goes on a date with each man.
Which one does she prefer?

“I love going to the cinema, but I often feel like staying at home with a good book,” says
Charlotte. “I’m quite friendly and sociable and I get on well with most people. I think I
have a good sense of humour.”

“What kind of men do I like? Well, I like interesting men who can make me laugh.
Physically, I prefer men with a really nice smile who are taller than me. And I don’t
usually like men with beards! I like men who are into literature and art, and classical
music.”

“I’m not sure who is going to choose better for me. Both my mum and my best friend
know me very well. Perhaps Katie could find me a guy who is physically more
compatible, but my mother has known me for longer!”

What did you really do at the Weekend

The next time a friend or colleague tells you about their fantastic weekend, wait a moment
before you start feeling jealous - maybe they are inventing it all!

A survey of 5,000 adults in the UK has shown that one person in four invents details about
their weekend because they want to impress their friends. When they are asked, 'Did you
have a good weekend?' they don't like to s say that they just stayed at home and watched
TV, because it sounds boring. So they invent the details. The most common lie that people
told was 'I went out on Saturday night', when really they didn't go anywhere. Other
common lies were 'I had a romantic meal', 'I went to a party', and 'I went away for the 10
weekend'.

In fact, in the survey, 30% of people who answered the questions said that they spent their
weekend sleeping or resting because they were so tired at the end of the week.

Another 30% said that they needed to work or study at Io the weekend. Psychologist
Corinne Sweet says that people often don't tell the truth about their weekend 'because we
don't want to feel that everyone else is having a better time than us, if we have had a
boring weekend doing housework, paperwork, or just resting after a tiring week at work'.
She also believes that networking sites such as Facebook and Twitter may be encouraging
us to invent details about our social lives. 'People can create an illusion of who they want
to be and the life they want to live,' says Corinne, 'and of course they want that life to
seem exciting.'
