There are lots of different ways to try and find love. Two British teens in the 1960s took their own approach - a message in a bottle sent out to sea asking for single boys between 16 and 18 years old to respond. Turns out, that wasn't the most effective approach. One of the teens, now in her 70s, says she did find true love, just through friends and some 30 years after sending out that bottle. Also, the bottle itself was found all these decades later, feet from where they released it.

有很多不同的方法来尝试和寻找爱情。20世纪60年代，两名英国青少年采取了自己的方法——一个瓶子里的信息被发送到海里，要求16至18岁的单身男孩做出回应。事实证明，这并不是最有效的方法。其中一位70多岁的青少年说，她确实通过朋友找到了真爱，而且在寄出那瓶酒大约30年后。此外，瓶子本身在几十年后被发现，距离他们释放瓶子的地方只有几英尺。
