Make Someone Fall for You Hook, Line, and Sinker

9/24/2013

Whether you want to make someone fall in love with you for the first time, or all over again, the answer may be closer than you think: a date on the water.

A new survey conducted among men and women currently in relationships reveals that two-thirds of couples have gone fishing or boating with their spouse or significant other. Those who have been out on the water together describe their experience as relaxing, exciting, playful and romantic. Of the one-third of couples who have never been fishing or boating on a date, 60 percent of women and 50 percent of men would be game for to try.
