The Opposite of Cynical

Here’s the website of a woman who wrote a book about her “year of yes.” She spent a year accepting every date she was offered, including dates with a 70-year-old man, a homeless dude, and her mother’s reincarnated dog. Her only rules — no guys who were married, drunk when they asked her out, obviously on drugs, or obviously violent. She ended up meeting “the one” and they’ve been married for three years so far. Perhaps this concept is the perfect antidote for those of us who are a bit cynical?
