Looking for the ideal partner? Wondering if your relationship will last? They're common questions as Valentine's Day approaches - so how do you find the right person and keep them? Hannah Fry, author of The Mathematics of Love, says three things make the magic formula:

1. Be proud: Play up to whatever makes you different
2. Be proactive: Go out and get what you want
3. Be provokable: Speak up if something bothers you

There's a picture of a pretty girl in TFA, if that matters.
