Online dating - you're having a laugh!

When it comes to the language of love, it seems nothing beats a good chuckle. That's according to research from the US, which found that humour beats a corny chat-up line anytime.

The research, from the University of Kansas, found that when two strangers meet, ‘the more times a man tries to be funny and the more a woman laughs at those attempts, the more likely the woman is interested in the man.’

The real chemistry comes when both people laugh together, say the experts, claiming that it's an 'even better indication of a romantic connection'.
