No holds barred and tells it like it is

I wish I could give a copy of this book out to every woman friend past who has ever ruined their lives because of their boyfriends, or those who they thought were their boyfriends. If they actually follow it is another story, but this book is a full frontal attack mixed with humor and insight into others as well as ourselves. I like the message she is pushing underneith it all, that women can be powerful. She encourages women to go for their MBAs and higher education, you don't have to settle to be a second class citizen. Don't ever let loneliness be your motivation to get involved with bad people on any level. To me many things go without saying, but it's important to tell gals who might be either a little neive or too desperate for attention and wanting to be liked otherwise. I don't know how many gals I've known who have ruined themselves financially, been abused (mentally, physically, or even sexually), have given up everything and moved to other cities or even cross country for some loser who could care less about them. We entertain ourselves as children with fairy tales about a handsome prince who comes riding in on a white horse to take us away to a fantasy world, and what do we do? We pick trolls who we have to mother and wait on hand and foot! They like to chip away at our self esteem because it makes them feel good about themselves. This is a how to for the woman who knows it's more than just looks and body, it's about self worth. Some have accused this book of being too over the top or too frank about sex at different points. People, there are gals out there who have not watched enough cable TV and more that are the coldest of cold fish out there. You never know what goes on behind closed doors, and more often than not there is NOTHING going on behind those doors! So read books like this and give yourself some idea. Every little bit helps.

Girlfriends, BUY THIS BOOK!!!!!

This book, once I finished reading it the first time, now has a very special place in my bathroom. This is not a reflection of the content in a NEGATIVE way. It is there because I use it as a reference, and what better place to do some good, quality reading?!? I refresh my memory before going out to a social event.This book hits the nail on the head. My most valued lesson is about going to places to meet men. The book says to be happy - smile, make men want to be around you. Men don't women who have problems, or complain a lot. They want a girl who is positive, and will be fun. When I go out, I laugh, smile, talk to people, and am usually the one with the most men around me. It's like a magnet!!!The other valuable pieces of information provided in this book are too numerous to mention. BUT THEY ARE TRUE, so buy this book. It will soon become your favorite reference book, too.

Great and practical advice for women

I recently started dating again after more than 10 years. I bought several books on dating after a guy I had been dating for two months "cut and run" when I suggested we get together on new year's eve. Now I have a more realistic view of the dating rituals (and "games") and how men need to be the pursuer. Honey, if he isn't pursuing you, he's not the right one. Good practical advice along with do's and don'ts for women by understanding how men approach dating. Along with Venus and Mars on a Date, I highly recommend this book. I read it two times and am sure I will read it over and over again. Myreah is right on and you will find it easy reading.

The Mistress of Dating - Myreah Rules

Coming out of a ten year relationship I truly did not know where to begin. Suddenly, after reading this incredible book my personal life has sprung to life, and I mean I am living the good life of meeting successful, handsome, exciting men. I needed a plan, I couldn't date like a teenager. I am looking for someone to enhance my life out of choice not desperation or need to have a date. This book is a bible to me and should be to all women. It makes the man hunt fun and throughout Myreah is a guide on this new journey. I treat this like a business and each day I reread different areas I have highlighted to utilize that week.Just like exercise these are muscles I haven't used for such a long time. Myreah has taught me new exercises and I never feel alone. Her writing is fun and easy to read and I am convinced she is the mistress of dating. Thanks to her my friends and I are going to find the men of our dreams and have great fun along the way.Anne Bank Financial Consultant and Licensed Psychotherapist
