I have never read one but I don't see how any book can be one size fits all when it comes to relationships.

Can this be done? Can you make a man fall in love with you by following mimis manual? |
IMO these books prey on people who have had bad luck in relationships, who lack self confidense, etc..
If a man doesn't want to be committed to you he will not be. End of story. No magical passage in a book is all of sudden going to make the committmentphope come around.
If bringing up a serious topic for discussion pushes a man away then he has no business being in an adult relationship in the first place.
Yes men don't seem to like needy and clingy women. I don't think a book needs to tell us that. I don't like needy and clingy men. This seems like a no brainer, don't be needy and clingy!
I hope the book comes with a money back guarentee. How can one promise that if you follow her "golden rules" of dating that you will have a man eating out of the palm of your hand? I would rather have a man be with me because he wants to be with me, not because I threw my thoughts and feelings away and relied on some book to tell me what to do.
Sorry apple_juice, I'm not trying to mean to you at all and I realize my ranting may have come off a little rough. I just can't stand these people who seem to think there is a quick fix for everything. Relationships are not one size fits all. They are hard work on the part of both people involved. I think if you are true to yourself, your feelings, and your values you will find the right man for you. I don't think any book can possibly make a man fall for you.
