This book was such a fun read. A friend recommended me to read it after a very long string of crappy relationships/guys I was meeting. Wow, what an eye opener. I realized I did many of the things that was mentioned in the book lol

I dont care how old you are, if you are single and in the dating world you NEED to read this book. I love how Greg Behrendt is so directly honest. I find he covers any situation that you may run into (and God forbid some I hope to never encounter) and gives you the honest low down on why the guy is doing it, why it means he doesnt like you and if he is into what the situation should look like. I always pick up this book when Ive met another douche bag, it make me laugh and even after one chapter I already feel great about myself and sorry for the loser who just wasn't that into me.

this book is the perfect mood picker-up after a break up, or for the lonely single girl, or the girl who is unsure of her relationship. When someone puts facts as bluntly as the author does it gets through to you.

i recommend all girls read this book, it is definitly an eye opener (in a good way)!!

This is a great book if you need answers about your relationships. I found this book helped me alot and also my friends too. I would read novels over and over cause i enjoyed it so much. There is so much explained in what we do and how we see things. Its a great perspective on some of the things we know but just dont wanna see. My friends recommended to me and now im going to recommened it to you. Enjoy!

The book is fantastic! I reread chapters all the time!! I've also been known to post-it and highlight chapters and lend the book to my friends to read chapters I think could help them, two of my girlfriends went out and bought the book after I did that for them!

I should preface this review with saying that I haven’t dated what you would call A LOT over the years, so I suppose I could not actually relate to a large part of this book. However even though I do not have first hand experience with a lot of this male behaviour, I know people who have and can also relate based simply on the fact that I am a woman. That being said I HATED IT.

It is supposed to be a wake-up call kind of self-help book for the dating challenged. The basic idea that they try to get across is that women do not value themselves even when they have tremendous worth and potential, and as a result we pick the wrong men and end up punishing ourselves (or at least this is my interpretation of what they were trying to say). According to them women over analyze men and situations and as a result spend valuable time obsessing over the wrong men when we could be out looking for the right one. The point they really try and hit home (which is obvious from the title) is don’t make excuses for men’s bad behaviour – take it as a sign that he is just not that into you. THERE I summarized all you need to know about this book, so you don’t even have to read it now. Honestly, seeing the author on Oprah was enough to summarize the book.

The reason I hated this book SO much was because I found it to be condescending – it assumes that women are all the same, and that we all stupidly (knowingly or not) accept mens atrocious behaviour in our blind quest to find mister right. I’m sorry but I just don’t think the majority of women fall into this category, and even the ones that do, do not deserve to be spoken to the way the author writes – as if they’re stupid. I suppose they assume the ones that need the help are the ones reading the book (and considering I don’t think I needed this book I guess it was my mistake for reading it). But regardless, I will not recommend this book to any of my single friends because although the author was trying to empower women and build their self esteem, I feel that it does the opposite of what it was trying to achieve.
