Hangman Game Feedback

Title:	To comfort a friend when they break up with their partner you say:
Answer:	There's plenty more fish in the sea.

Hints:	1. Another word for lots

Explanation:	I have no idea why we say 'there's plenty more fish in the sea'. I personally do not, nor do I know anyone who is attracted to fish or have ever been consoled or comforted by this phrase. But we ALWAYS say it. 'she broke up with me' 'Oh, nevermind, there are plenty more fish in the sea, dry your eyes mate.' For a good example of how it's used check out The Street's song 'Dry your eyes mate'

Instead of "There's plenty more fish in the sea.", in French we say "un de perdu dix de retrouvés"

Instead of "There's plenty more fish in the sea.", in Chinese, Mandarin we say "天涯何處無芳草"
