Craziest thing you’ve ever done for love?
Flying to meet a boy-friend in another country. He said, “Come,” so I went.

Biggest romantic regret?
Flying to meet a boyfriend in another country! The minute I got there, I knew something was wrong—he’d cheated, or something—but I stayed. I hung around long enough to get hurt. I wish I had listened to my heart saying “Go home.”

Who do you consider a relationship role model?
I look at couples like Kurt Russell and Goldie Hawn and realize that they aren’t married in the traditional set-up, but whatever they have there, it works.

Do you believe in “the One”?
Oh God, yes, I do. I know a lot of women—and a lot of men—say “There’s a lot of ‘the Ones’ out there,” but I’m a romantic.

Flowers or candy?
Flowers. Gladiolas. I know they’re popular for funerals, but they’re gorgeous.
