Who knows you


better – your mother
or your best friend?
In our weekly experiment, single people who are looking
for a partner ask their mother and their best friend
to help.

Mother: Alice Charlotte Best friend: Katie

This week’s single person is Charlotte Ramirez, a 25-year-old


web designer. Her father is Spanish and her mother is English.
She lives in Brighton and she doesn’t have a partner at the
moment. Her mother, Alice, chooses a man she thinks is
perfect for her daughter and her best friend, Katie, chooses
another. Then Charlotte goes on a date with each man.
Which does she prefer?

‘I love going to the cinema, but I often feel like staying at


home with a good book,’ says Charlotte. ‘I’m quite friendly
and sociable and I get on well with most people. I think I
have a good sense of humour.’

‘What kind of men do I like? Well, I like interesting men who 2
can make me laugh. Physically, I prefer men with a really nice
smile who are taller than me. And I don’t usually like men
with beards! I like men who are into literature and art, and
classical music.’

‘I’m not sure who is going to choose better for me. Both my
mum and my best friend know me very well. Perhaps Katie
could find me a guy who is physically more compatible, but
my mother has known me for longer!’
