What does Ivy want? Really?


You'd remember attractive and wealthy Ms Ivy Lee.

Months ago, dating agencies reportedly shut their doors at her face. Reason? She was considered too old at 42. Men only have eyes for SYTs.

After her story was published in the Sunday Times, about 100 men reportedly wrote in and asked to meet her.

Happily for her, she got hooked up with a 46-year-old widower. But unhappily for her, they have since parted ways. She cited "personal reasons" for the breakup. When asked about the "database" of the over 100 suitors, Ms Lee reportedly said that she "did not have the time to go through each and every e-mail in detail".

Well, that juz about sums up Ivy's attitude in her quest for love. No time? Then why bother looking for a mate in the first place? Love, as we know, takes time. If you have no time to sieve out the man of your dream, one wonders if you'd have the time to nurture love at all.

Sorry Ivy honey, no, you can't have your cake, and eat it too.

Why the sudden flurry of romantic posts? Because of the coming Valentine's Day? Wake up dreamy Romeo.

You so worried for Ivy then go match make for her lor. Our office got a lot of 40-ish men not married one what. TST (the man, not the lady hor) is just one of them, hahaha.

TST? Siapa? (scratching my head).

But I think CMI (cannot make it) one lah. Ivy standard so high. But why trouble troubles when troubles don't trouble you?

Busy woman like her needs a man who can cook and wash. Romantic poetry a bonus. Too bad the Romeo already taken.

Chris Sim said...

Cannot. I much prefer a bimbo. She looks like the "no-nonsense" kind one. Not my type. Wanna be Romeo also must find the right partner mah. LOL.

Chris, sorry that this comment is not about Ivy but about your other female fan. No, not Jayne but Madonna. Mr Wang has an interesting post about Madonna. In fact, when I read the first para of the article, I thought he was quoting your post.

I am not sure if that was really what Ivy Lee herself said. Journalist tend to have this habit of putting a different answers to a different question and then published it out.

Anyway it be stupid of her to comment that she has no time.

One thing for sure, I been seeing a lot of 'IVY LEE' banners infront of a lot of properties looking for buyers. Business must be good.
