Customer Reviews

Good info.

If you're looking to get into a relationship, you can't go wrong with this one. It's not about PUA at all, it's about finding a woman to love and respect and, possibly, spend some time with. There are the eleven rules to finding a woman and they all make perfect sense. I'd highly recommend this one, as I said, to those of us who wish to get into a relationship. [...]

Excellent coverage of fundamentals

This book provides a very balanced coverage on relationships, covering many different viewpoints/stages. Reviews hazards and ideal scenarios through plausible examples. Well written, provides excellent motivation and explanations to help the reader recognize the importance and value of the "common sense" principles in this book.

Just wondering...

I happened to stumble across this book in a bookstore the other day and for some reason I was very curious, so i skimmed through most of the book. The advice seems to hit the nail on the head. Guys should be required to know these rules! Whether they decide to follow them or not. But I was wondering from a guys perspective...would this book seem insulting to give as a gift to your significant other? You know just to help him out where some things are lacking. The last thing I want to do is hurt my man's pride but this book explains things I've been trying to convince him of for years! Any advice?...

Good book

Overall I'd say this is a good book about finding and dating women. There aren't any magic formulas, but it does give what I believe to be good, solid advice about romance, dating, and women.

Very Accurate!

First I want to start off by saying that I am a woman (straight). I originally purchased this for myself (thanks to the Valentine's Day discount, lol) out of curiosity. Not all men are right when it comes to women, and not all women are right when it comes to men; this is due to a lack of education/false information (cosmo anyone?). I was very impressed by this book. It was written in a *guide* format and was very blunt. Bassil didn't beat around the bush about what the average woman wants and constantly reminded the reader how to keep her happy during all stages of your relationship with her. [Most] women don't want to be coddled 24/7 or showered with praise at all times of the day and night, but it is really nice to feel appreciated: little reminders that you're still physically and emotionally attracted to us. Bassil, IMO, does a very nice job on listing various ways to keep the spark alive after you've been together for a while as well as how to 'woo' a woman. Whether you are a newbie in the game of love or a 'pro,' I think that every guy will benefit from this guide. Not everyone knows everything and not all women are the same, but we do share a lot of similarities. :)
