The Power of Positive Thinking

How delightful to have another title from the author of one of my most indispensable books, "Men Are Like Fish," which was so important to me that I ended up buying it twice (my second-hand copy was missing a few key pages, so I happily ordered one brand new). As I am now reading "Dating Rocks" for the second time, I am reminded that the overall effect of reading Steve Nakamoto is a welcome boost of optimism. And if there is any realm in which a negative outlook is poorly rewarded, it's romance. As an unexpected bonus, I was motivated to become a better friend, sister and daughter as well as lover. These books are useful even to those not currently pursuing relationships for the sheer pleasure of being reminded that we can be happy or sad during our one shot at life, so why not chose the brighter way?

READ THIS BOOK & MAKE YOUR LOVE LIFE SHAKE, RATTLE & ROLL!!

This is an empowering book for women with all the right intentions....but their socializing efforts just aren't leading them to meet Mr. Right. Dating Rocks! tells it like it is from a man's perspective...with honesty and constructive advice. It's not that a man is dictating what to do, but rather, he is sharing what he sees...reflecting on the common faux pas women make but are often unaware of. Examples in the book are mostly women's stories of challenge, with four female contributors, so the book offers a unique and balanced perspective....not just reflecting the author's take on things. Nakomoto provides strategic guidance on how to live your best life so you can attract a soulmate who will stand the test of time. And, a big part of that is knowing how to present yourself by making the most of your assets, and living fully and more spiritually. He is right in suggesting that this will make you that much more irresistible and self confident. "What To Do Now" sections provide constructive steps the reader may take, and he even offers a free Bonus Special Report. Cool extra for gals looking for that much more!. The book's format is very accessible, and it's smartly written. I especially like the charts and light-hearted illustrations, making Dating Rocks! a worthwhile read that treats a serious subject for singles with a smile. With this book in hand, you can truly shake up your social life for the better!

Simply WOW!

Right to the point. Covers all areas about relationship issues we have with men. And boy, do we got it all messed up. I had no idea men are this dislocated from what is really going on with us women...But if you follow some of the straight forward advice from Steve, you may get the relationship you want outta the guy. Very informative without beating around the bush...so to speak.

Definitely a FIVE STAR Book

As I was reading Dating Rocks, I realized how blindly we go into dating. I was thinking back to my dating days and wondering why some of these things didn't even occur to me and my friends. Not only that, but there is so much more we could never have known on our own. There would have been less wasted time and heart ache all around. Dating Rocks offers new foresight on all the bad dates that can be avoided and what will attract more rewarding dates. Steve Nakamoto brings to light things we don't normally think about while dating such as; how the things we do come across to men and how we can determine, in a very short time, whether a man is worthy of a future date. He gives us a step-by-step strategic approach to dating that is easy to follow. I also enjoyed the lighter side of the book. The cartoons are a fun way of bring life to the subjects. And a huge bonus to Dating Rocks is that it's full of insider tips about men. This book will give even the most nervous woman the confidence she needs to make smart decisions about her love life.

A must read for inexperienced daters

Reviewed by Kelley Anderson for Reader Views (1/06) "Dating Rocks" is a sensible, insightful view into the mind of a man and what he wants out of a relationship. It is appropriate for any female wanting a mature, adult relationship with a man and gives her specific and detailed guidance on how to achieve it. Nakamoto writes in easy to understand language, using the same format for each chapter that makes the information easily accessible. The chapters are broken down into simple steps, making the information manageable. He provides the reader with challenges for each step and thoughtful advice about looks, charm, honesty, loyalty and love. "Dating Rocks" covers all areas of dating, beginning with presenting yourself to men as an attractive, available woman who is well put together, mature and highly desirable. Nakamoto shows ways to make yourself a better person in order to be a contributing part of a two sided relationship. He moves into what a healthy happy relationship should and should not be, tackling the chemistry a couple feels in a sensitive way. Then he shows the importance of maintaining that relationship so you can continue in a partnership that will bring you happiness for a lifetime. I could have used this book when I was dating my husband. It would have made my dating experience go a lot smoother. I would recommend this book to any single woman that is frustrated with the dating experience or one that needs some ideas on how to keep her current romance alive. A must read for those inexperienced at dating, whether being young or newly single. Nakamoto's self-improvement tips are right on the mark, even for married women.
