To find the Mr. Right is not an easy task. A report suggests that women spend lavishly to find their Mr. Right and dates more than 24 men to find the perfect match.

The price is what they spend on looking for a date in various sites. All the effort to get true love. Though true love is priceless, looking for it is not.

"While men are still traditionally footing the bill of the date on the night, this shows how much women are prepared to pay behind the scenes to make each date successful," says one of the researchers.

After spending a fortune on arranging a date, the next step is to dress up for it. The report reveals that before going on every date women spend Rs 5000 on their hairstyles, Rs 2000 on a new outfit and Rs 2500 on accessories to match the dress.

The study also claims that seven per cent of women date around 20 men before they finally find someone to share their life with.

The outcome of the effort is not always fruit full. In most of the cases, after preparing for a romantic rendezvous, the women realizing that they were sitting with "Mr Wrong".
