Customer Reviews

Abridgement or gimmick
If you haven't read the hardcopy version DO NOT waste your money on this marketing gimmick. Even if you have read the book, DO NOT waste your money on this gimmick. An abridgement is a shortened form of a work that retains the sense and unity of the original. Not so here. It is a series of sound bites randomly plucked from the book. This is a sad attempt to extract additional profit from a popular book. The hardcopy version offers some interesting insights. Stay with that, you'll get much more out of it.

This book can save you some heart ache
Ok, read this book before you go out and start to date. I like this book from the perspective that before you get invested with the guy watch how the treats you. Now once again, do not get invested with a guy until you see how he treats you. This book suggests you deserve someone that will treat you the way you want to be treated. Do not settle for less.
It is a little cold hearted, but I think for the most part this book might save you some anguish. This book almost employs the tough love approach. You can not work from the perspective that you can make someone into the person that you want them to be, but if they do not match your standards move on, immediately.
Once again this book isn't about forming deep and meaningful relationships, but should really be a way to cull through the men in your life, and finding your keepers. Its a quick read, but worthwhile. A good book on relationships and those dynamics is Make Up, Don't Break Up by Dr. Bonnie Eaker Weil.

You Need to Know When to Hold 'em and When to Fold 'em
It seems like everywhere you turn the phrase "He's just not that into you" is being thrown around. And for good reason! The ladies are finally done waiting by the phone - hey, why sit at home for the phone to ring when it's so obvious that he's just not into you enough to be calling?

Seriously though, "He's Just Not That Into You: The No-Excuses Truth to Understanding Guys" really helped me see the light at the end of the tunnel in a recent break up. Reading through this book made some things really clear in my mind and somehow made things seem not so bad.

Since then, I've given this book to a friend who was going through the break up stage. She was, you know, sitting around waiting for the phone to ring (it was never going to). I'm not saying she was thrilled to get the book (who wants to admit he's just not into them?), but when she actually sat down to read it, she was glad I gave it to her.

There's a lot of comfort knowing when to hold 'em and when to fold 'em.

Thank you Greg Behrendt!
