I love that story, LionTamer!
Something similiar happened to me when my step-dad was in the hospital passing away. He was constantly saying things like " That nurse is hot; don't you think?! He's very kind, even when people aren't looking. Ask him on a date!" He was always trying to hook me up with a nice guy.
I'd say it was my step-dad who gave me the best advice.
He once said " You are wonderful. Never settle. Don't waste your time with the wrong guys. Find someone to love who has a great heart - that is what matters. You want a guy who will take care of you; not try to kill you when you're sick!"
LOL.
Great advice, I have found.
