Gals: there's a better book Ladies, listen up: There's a better book for single gals--by far--than this one. Check out Ditching Mr. Wrong, by Nicholas Aretakis. I recently had to read a stack of dating books for a writing project, so I've had a chance to compare every relevant title out there. In Ditching Mr. Wrong, Aretakis betrays the "secret handshake" between guys and lets gals know what tricks and traps to avoid when single men are on the prowl. If I had a 20-something daughter, I'd buy Ditching for her instead. The viewpoint in He's Just Not That Into You is, in my eyes, a tad misogynist. Ditching, on the other hand, shows women how to quickly vet a Mr. Wrong so she doesn't waste her time. It's also chockfull of fun tips, quizzes, and checklists. It's a high self-esteem book and exceptionally practical--much more so, in my opinion, than He's Just Not That Into You.
I prefer another I get the point of this book, but I much prefer the kinder and more dignified "Ditching Mr. Wrong" by Nicholas Aretakis, which also covers how to move on, begin dating again, quickly assess your new man, and form a wonderful relationship. "He's Just Not That Into You" doesn't help you form a new, worthwhile relationship, and that is of course the desired result of this whole dating game. "Ditching Mr. Wrong" is a fun, interesting and more informative read.
Using this to help get "closure" Loved the book but if you're using it because you already know the answer and are just trying to "leave that man behind"...then check-out burythejerk.com for the newest in relationship closures!
funny I had fun reading this. Made me laugh. Made me think how some guys treat women. Some of the quotes and advise were actually good. Everything was numbered. A lot of the stuff was repetitious...just worded differently. I enjoyed reading this.
Single Woman's Bible This book stopped me from picking up the phone several times, and I'm grateful for that. A must-have for any woman on the dating scene.
