Sageoldguy1465 agony auntI agree with your friends.... A person has to be happy at LEAST 97.5% happy before they can claim that they are with "the One"...

If your rating is only 70%, then you need to work on increasing that. Can you take classes that will help you be happier? Perhaps you can find a tutor who has a degree (preferably with a Doctorate... but a Master's degree is better than no degree at all!!!) in happiness...

Of course, if you REALLY like this guy... and are CONVINCED that he is "the one" you could always FUDGE the figures so that they will come out as you prefer..

Good luck....

Miss Marble agony auntIf you are asking the question....then you have doubts.

Nobody knows the future and nobody can make you happy but yourself.Relying on people to make you happy is only setting yourself up for disappointment. Be happy to be alive and live each day because you can. We all have good days and bad days. We also want alone days and duvet days. I guess if you want something to work you have to put the time and energy into making it work.

Nithyanala agony auntIf you're having to get into calculations, its probably not a good sign. And "the one" is mostly a media-fuelled myth.

A reader, anonymous, writes (17 August 2012):

Love is not math, chances are you asked your friends about their relationships on a good day. When you don't keep stats about how you feel toward the relationship, bad things tend to fade a little bit.

My honnest opinion is that the journal is a little bit too much. Asking yourself how you feel about the person, the relationship, your life, it's a good thing, but grading everyday in a journal is a little intense.

Also, I don't believe in "the one" I think we each have a lot of potentiel partners.
