Rating:  Summary: Great book! Review: This book is for real! A lot of books on this subject are just common sense, or avoid stating the controversial, outrageous truths. But I put this and "Make Every Girl Want You: How to Have Sex with Hot Girls (without even dating them!)" above all others because they actually tell it how it is, without walking on egg shells.
Rating:  Summary: Its ok, a good foundation... Review: Really this book is ok, it is a good foundation and gives you intersting points but really, what is described here is just common sense.My opinion is that if you want to meet women, there are really only 3 places you can do it: 1. College. College is probably the only place where adults are looking to meet other people. It is the only time in a person's life where they will have an open mind, and when someone is on campus surrounded by a lot of other people pursuing the same goals and pursuits (education)they feel comfortable and safe. If you are older, then go to night school at a local community college and it shouldnt be a problem meeting someone in your age group. The BEST way to meet girls on campus is to join a fraternity. The "greek system" is almost pure networking and is the only way to break into the "party scene" and is a great way to meet guys, who will in turn introduce you to girlfriends who will in turn introduce you to their hot chick friends. This leads to the number 2 way to meet people... 2. Thru friends. Invariably, women like to feel "comfortable" with a situation. Girls get hit on EVERY DAY, usually by creepy guys with cheesy pick-up lines. They get tired of it. They want a hint of familiarity and a common level with someone. They want "3rd-party verification". If you have a hot-but-taken female coworker, chances are she will have a hot-but-not-taken female friend. Be a great guy at work and make yourself seem picky and not desparate and maybe even a little unattainable and your co-worker will probably set you up. The MOST SUCCESFUL relationship I have ever had was with someone I met who was the sister of a girl I went to high school with. 3. The Internet (MAYBE). This is a big maybe but if you live in a smaller town, the internet can be a great way to meet people outside your town. If you live in a small remote town then you pretty much know everyone. Who is there to meet then? You have to get outside of your "sphere of influence" and using sites like match.com, yahoo personal ads, lavalife.com etc can be a great way to fond others who are "looking". Some people make fun of internet dating, saying its for losers but I have met BEUTIFUL women off of personal ads who simply werent content with the losers hitting on them at the bar scene. I live in Chicago so I dont have a problem with finding available women but sometimes its easier to use a website to screen for people that match what you are looking for. Email me and I can give you more tips, all for free.
Rating:  Summary: Good, straightforward advice Review: For a guy like me - ended a long term relationship a few months ago and finding it weird being back on the dating scene when most of my friends are either married or attached, this book was a good kick in the pants and helped me figure out my approach. The authors' crass writing style (no doubt to appeal to the lowest common denominator in male readers) made me laugh out loud many times, but I think they have been dead on every time. The thing is, this book is good advice if you just want to meet women for one night stands, or you want a relationship. You just have to approach the advice they give in slightly different ways. The priming and seduction dates are two really good pieces of advice, but they also give a lot of good advice about how to just meet women, and how my mental approach should be. They also get into a lot of things like how a woman will respond to different things a man does, and so it helped me to figure out some of the things I've been doing wrong, such as the ones that get me slated into the "friends" category. They also use a concept quite prevalent in NLP circles - modeling. They describe to you how to become a successful seducer and tell you things a successful seducer does. But it's really all up for you to interpret, everything they say has to be put into the context of your own life. So far, I've been using the advice they gave and I've already met several women. I've never had to try to be anyone but myself, but rather I focus on specific aspects of myself as they suggest in each interaction. I haven't really met anyone I want to have a long term relationship with yet, but it's just another part of the mental approach. Telling myself it's just practice, and it is a numbers game - for me, the mental approach with most things seems to be a huge factor. Anyway it is a good read, and I recommend it.
Rating:  Summary: somewhat useful, somewhat not... Review: I just finished that book and I will have to say that some of the things in the book are useful, like the habits of successful seducers but then there is too much emphasis placed on things that should already be known by men (grooming, hygeine, keeping your car clean..) there shouldnt 30 pages devoted to this. If a guy doesnt know how to dress nice for a date and keep himself clean then he's out of touch with civilization. The problem with alot of dating books is they don't give you enough advice on how to keep a woman during the 3 month to one year stage, instead placing most of the emphasis on picking up, and going out on the first few dates.
Rating:  Summary: Book should be retitled: How to Succeed with Loose Women Review: The thesis of this book is altogether wrong-headed. The primary goal of the authors is not for the reader to find a wife, soul-mate, or a committed woman, but simply to get a woman to have sex with you. This being the case, the authors really give no compelling reason why a man shouldn't simply go out and purchase a sex partner instead of this book. No doubt, the book gives some interesting and practical insights (especially in pre-stages before dating) but the "success" they promote, at best, leads to one night stands. Any man who has been around the block knows that such a lifestyle gets old very quick and leaves you empty, dissatified, and longing for something more than a quick, one-night lay. At worse, this book will not even get you this far if what you really want is a woman who is decent, moral, committed, faithful, and has at least half a brain to detect manipulation when she sees it. This book can only contribute to why there are so many dysfunctional, promiscuous, three-or-more-times divorced people who selfishly use and disrespect their partners, dump their partners at the drop of a hat, get depressed, pay enormous fees for a counselor to make them feel better, and then go out and start the same vicious cycle all over again!
Rating:  Summary: I love this book Review: This is a great book, it helped me find the answers to my questions I've alway had about women and relationships. This book helped me see all the mistakes I had been making with women and correct them. I highly recommend this book.
Rating:  Summary: Recommended for anyone looking for that special someone Review: Authors tell it like it is in the dating world. You need to make it happen.
Rating:  Summary: the rules of dating for a game without rules Review: i purchase this book just for something to read in my sparetime,i haven't read it all yet.but i was drawn into what the authors were saying,they are not saying that men should be pigs and manipulate women.I think the whole scope of the book is to teach men how to be successful with women if he wants women as well as keeping the romance alive.So therefore i will have to disagree with some of the people who said this book teaches men how to manipulate women.
Rating:  Summary: An Extraordinary Handbook For All Men Review: If you or a family member contracted a devastating disease, you would take an academic approach and learn all you could about that disease. However, in the world of dating, we don't do this because we think the subject only requires the common sense we already possess. This book quickly makes us realize that this approach is entirely wrong and that every man can benefit for the teachings of this extraordinary handbook. Frankly, no more need be said. Get the book and change your social life for the beter.
Rating:  Summary: I have 25+ books on the subject. This is by far the BEST! Review: I have bought most of the books available on men, women and relationships and how to meet & date women, etc. I've even been to seminars on how to seduce women. This is BY FAR the absolute BEST book on the subject. It covers all aspects of dating, what to do, what not to do, and made me realize areas that I fell short on in the past. Better then that, it also explains how to change those bad habits and make them into good ones that work for you instead of against you. It explains how your actions (or lack thereof) are interpretted by women (and you may not realize the effects that they have). There are great insights in every chapter and some of them really hit home with me. Some books tell you to "just do it", but this books tells you HOW to do it, and succeed in doing it well. The tips and information presented in this book are very straightforward and to the point. Everything from personal style, dress, and hygene to making your car and home more romantic. Do the exercises suggested and you WILL be dating more beautiful women then you ever believed possible. I wish I had read this book years ago, it would have saved me many lonely nights. Look out Ladies, here I come! VERY HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! A+
