I tried with all my heart not to like this book but for some reason around chapter 8 I had to let my guards down and realize that Greg really did know what he was talking about. Of course I noticed some things that were reminiscent of one of the relationships that I had which ultimately resulted in me finally coming to the realization that he wasn't into me (after two years) but what is noble about this book is that the authors warn you of the early red flags from the beginning (first date) so you won't waste your time or your pretty. I received some great insight into the mind of a man and this book also made me realize that my tolerance for the next man that does come into my life will be low because I really don't have time for the games. The following is some advice that I took away from this book:
Cut your losses and don't waste your time . Why stay in some weird dating limbo when you can move on to what will surely be better territory?
Calling when you say you're going to call is the very first brick in the house you are building of love and trust. If he can't lay this one stupid brick down, you ain't never gonna have a house, baby. And it's cold outside.
Beware of the word "friend". It can often be used by men or the women that love them to excuse the most unfriendly behavior. Personally, when I'm picking friends, I like the ones who don't make me cry myself to sleep.
Every man you have ever dated who has said he doesn't want to get married or doesn't believe in marriage, or has "issues" with marriage, will ... rest assured ... someday be married. It just will never be with you.
A man who wants to make a relationship work will move mountains to keep the woman he loves.
