The Love List
The Love List: A Guide to Getting Who You Want | Elena Murzello
21 posts | 1 to read
Elena Murzello cannot imagine going to the grocery store without a list. As she strolls through the aisles, she relies on her list to make sure she gets her must-haves and to help keep her from grabbing items she does not need. It was with this theory in mind that, at age twenty-one, she created a list of characteristics for a potential lifelong mate that still guides her love choices to this day. In The Love List, Elena shares her real- life experiences as well as information gathered from more than a hundred single, divorced, and married men and women about the qualities they look for in a life partner. Abstracting details from her interviews she created a process that anyone can use to create his or her own lists. Along with introspective questions to ponder, Elena includes sample lists of characteristics, the top three traits both men and women seek in a partner, an exploration of different types of relationships, and ways to diversify a portfolio of suitors. The Love List provides practical tips and personal stories to encourage single people to look deep within, take risks, and learn to rely on their own unique lists while searching for the perfect mate.

MaryT465 I don't know how to do this 7y
kspenmoll @MaryT465 How can I help? 7y
MaryT465 I'm not sure how to repost this to my feed. 7y
kspenmoll Others my do this differently, but I take a picture & save to photos( iPhone). Then I crop it (edit). Sometimes it is too big; if so I use an app called pic collage. There may be an easier way. I had to experiment. When you add photo to Litsy you can edit, add stickers etc. let me know if that works for you. (edited) 7y
kspenmoll I think there is a Litsy tip page- cannot remember under whose handle. Post and ask or I can ask if you want. It‘s got lots of tips. 7y

DaveNeufeld Yep, it‘s been a long time though, I imagine I have some serious levelling to do. I think I put more time in on Xbox than I did on PC. 7y

SilversReviews How did you change the colors and text please? 7y
GondorGirl @SilversReviews I used the app PicCollage, but you can also add text in Litsy by clicking the 'T' button when you go to edit a photo. 7y
SilversReviews @GondorGirl I saw the T, but how did you get the different colors and fonts or is that in PicCollage not Litsy? I didn‘t see how to change the fonts or colors on Litsy unless I missed something. THANK YOU for replying. 7y

merelybookish Sloth! ❤️ 7y
ReadingRover Haha when I was little I used to tell everyone that capybaras were my fav animal and people would be like wtf is that! Yay for R.O.U.S!!! 7y
GondorGirl @SilversReviews I guess that part must only be in PicCollage. It's a free app. 7y
GondorGirl @merelybookish I'm going to meet a sloth next weekend. I get to pet him. 7y
GondorGirl @ReadingRover R.O.U.S. for life! 7y
ReadingRover @GondorGirl omg where are you going to meet a sloth? Where do you live? The land of awesome animals?!? 7y
GondorGirl @ReadingRover I live in Toledo, Ohio, but there's a conservation place in Ann Arbor, Michigan that raises sloths (and all kinds of neat animals). They feature a different animal each month and January is sloth month (and conveniently my birthday month). 7y
Scurvygirl Sloths are great! I think that's why I love my chameleons so much. Scaly sloths! 😹😹 (edited) 7y
GondorGirl @Scurvygirl They are! I love scaly sloths! 🦎 7y
ReadingRover @GondorGirl that is freakin amazing! I have to look into it. There‘s this place in California that you can go to and swim with the small clawed otters and meet other cool animals but this is a lot closer. 😝 7y
ReadingRover @GondorGirl I just looked it up and it sounds so amazing!!! You have to let me know how it is. I hope the weather is goo because there is a lot of awesome outside stuff. I‘m so jelly right now! 7y
GondorGirl @ReadingRover I want to swim with otters 😍😍😍 7y

CouronneDhiver Interesting job... might not be everyone‘s “cup of tea” but I‘m intrigued/curious. 7y
Betty I'm curious too on what you do. Take paw prints for the owner? Do cremation? Or what else? 7y
emily_m_tubb @CouronneDhiver @Betty I assist pathologists in an "autopsy" to determine cause of death (definitely not everyone's cup of tea, but I like to think I am helping play a role in improving farm animal welfare, help pet owners with closure or help police gather evidence against animal abusers). It's fascinating but can be very sad at times too. 7y
Betty @emily_m_tubb thanks for explaining. As sad as it is, it's an essential position. 7y
emtobiasz Your job sounds fascinating, although I'm not sure I could handle it myself. I'm glad we have you and your coworkers to help in those situations! 7y
