I have been out of the dating world for many years. But the book was enlightening to read to see how men and women really do think differently. I loved the exchange between Dr. Bloom and Dr. Karim. It gave advice without being in your face with what you're doing wrong. It subtlety pointed out certain behaviors that cause the end result of encounters in the dating world. Even as a married woman, I was encouraged to evaluate how I deal with certain situations with my own husband. Because we are always dating our spouse as well. I'm going to use some of the advice in my marriage. It's one of the best relationship book out there for the dating world that I have found in a long time.

I didn't think that I would be the audience for this book since I have been in a relationship and out of the dating world for some time. I was pleasantly surprised to discover however that the advice fo Dr. Reef and Dr. Paula still mostly applied to my relationship. Their insight continues to be valuable and I will recommend this book to my friends.
