Product Description

For women who long for serious commitment in a relationship, the harsh reality is that if they can't get a man to call them back for a second date, they will be doomed to a life of single-date relationships with no "till death do us part."

Dating expert, Victorya Michaels Rogers, author of Finding a Man Worth Keeping, tells how in this book she went from no dates to being pursued by an Academy Award winner, a rock star, a gospel singer, a preacher, an athlete, and more--until she found the man she decided was worth keeping.

Rogers has dating down to a science, and shares her expertise in sure-fire, guaranteed-to-work secrets. And the best part is that these secrets work for any single woman at any age--secrets that will teach readers how to:

• Evaluate her own personal plusses and minuses and learn how to enhance her finest qualities while minimizing negatives.

• Find eligible men, even involving friends and family in her search

• Flirt just enough to get him to come over and ask her out

• Charm her way through her first phone call

• Dress for the first date

• Establish rapport and relax in the first fifteen minutes of her first date

• Keep the first-date conversation all about him so she can (1) see if he matches her "wish list" and (2) keep him interested in his favorite subject--himself.

• Use body language, gestures, and vocal tone to communicate just what she wants him to know

• Flatter a man with believable, genuine compliments

• Know how far to go on the first date

• Let him down easy if there's no "spark"

• Not to scare him off by being too pushy

Rogers has discovered the secrets to finding and keeping the man of your dreams and has proven that her methods work. She went on dates with more than one hundred men in eighteen months, 98 percent of whom asked her out for a second date. Written for women, by a woman who practiced what she preaches, this book is guaranteed to teach women how to transform their repeat-date ratio.

Perfect Gift for Single Girlfriends!
Okay, I love this book. This is a great follow-up to Rogers last book FINDING A MAN WORTH KEEPING. I have so many girlfriends who are single-again and terrified to get back in the dating game. I will be gifting AUTOMATIC 2nd DATE to these girlfriends this year. Rogers guides weary singles on a step by step plan on gaining confidence, courage and charisma. She shows how ANY single woman can compel men to ask them out, AND she reveals step by step instructions on how you can sail through first dates without scaring a great guy away (without being phony or manipulative). I especially like the 100 questions she offers to help jump start a conversation with your man which includes some deep questions you can lightly venture into to help gain valuable insight into the inner character of your man--all on the first date and without scaring him away. Rogers does not teach you how to manipulate your date, rather she shows you how you can "get on the same wavelength" of your man just by paying attention and doing subtle shifts in your normal behavior to actually let someone know you care without scaring them away. If you ever wondered why "HE" didn't call back for a 2nd date, even when you had a great time, then you HAVE to read this book.

automatic 2nd date, HIGHLY recommended
This book is awesome, Even though she is a christian she doesnt come off super religious or strict about things. Her advice is really practical and down to earth while still incorporating and not compromising christian values. This book is an easy read, like im having a conversation with a girlfriend. I read almost the whole book in the same day and im not big on reading...It really encouraged me to pay attention to how i look and clean up my physical a little bit. Some of the flirting techniques were not for me but overall this book was great. Take the advice that works for you and run with it, you will not be dissapointed.

Give 2nd Date a 2nd Look!!!
As a fellow author in the dating category (Dating, Inc.: Recruit, Select, and Retain the Right Man for the Relationship), I'm always interested in reading what my peers write. I must say, I was pleasantly surprised by The Automatic 2nd Date. As I read, I realized just how many people complain they can't meet anyone for a first date. So all the energy goes into finding someone and none of the energy goes into keeping someone around. I especially like the "male GPS" angle, it's a cute take on finding the right place to meet new guys.
