"It is totally fate," says Kate, 29. "I met my husband on a plane from Boston to New York. The flight had been cancelled and rescheduled three times, and I was drunk as a skunk from nervousness about flying. I made him hold my hand for the landing, and then we shared a cab and went out for a drink in the East Village afterward."

"Some of us make smarter decisions than others; however, some very earnest and well-intentioned lady friends of mine seem to never win — like myself. Overall I really do have great memories of most relationships. I think the universe just didn't have it in the stars for some reason or another."
