The part of the book that struck me most was only be with people who bring out the best in you. How sad that we have to teach that concept, but I think so many people would be much happier if they followed that one simple concept. You do not have to have read Austen's books to follow the concepts (but really, why haven't you at least read Pride and Prejudice?), the author gives you enough info to follow along, coupled with real life examples of her concepts. Thoughtful, well-written ideas that assist anyone dating or anywhere where you find yourself interacting with people. Like, you know, the planet. This uses examples from Jane Austen's works to show how to find love while maintaining your dignity. Although single people might find it helpful, it's an enjoyable read for any Jane Austen fan, connecting Regency era manners with contemporary situations. Where was this book when I was dating?? Or why can't I get my daughter to follow the helpful advice!! Very amusing dating book using Jane Austen's characters as examples in different situations. no reviews | add a review

She's making references to other dating guides in general, who urge you not to call him back for a full week or to pretend you didn't reconize his voice when he calls you and such nonsense. She points out how ridiculous that is and were it the otherway around, that you wouldn't want to be treated that way. Too true.
All in all I thought it was a great Dating Guide and not just for women but for men also, since it gives men a great insight on how women think while dating. (
