5.0 out of 5 stars FINALLY! A BOOK THAT SPEAKS THE TRUTH!, February 3, 2000

By A Customer

There are so many relationship books available and so many focus on the 'other' person. Gail and Basha have done us all a huge favor. They've introduced totally new concepts to finding lasting love...it starts from within. You can't find a soul mate if you're own soul is lost and with the 'self-work' they do, you will find your soul or spirit. If I had to pick the BEST concept in this book, it would be the one which talks about discovering your "Non-Negotiables" What an amazing break through. You date some one who does or behaves in such a way you disagree, but you accept it thinking "he'll change" years later, a few kids, he still does those things. Is it his fault "NO"! It's yours for compromising on your non-negotiable. Read this book cover to cover, write notes and do what they say, your life and the way you approach relationships will change for the better and there is no turning back. Bravo Gail and Basha. Excellent!

5.0 out of 5 stars A really important read for everyone, March 19, 1999

By A Customer

Bravo to Basha and Gail. This book has really changed my perspective in looking for the woman I want to spend the rest of my life with. My recent dating experiences, I now realize, have been superficial at best, looking for the outer qualities rather than the inner beauty I really need to fulfill my needs and desires. Beauty is really only skin deep and the inner qualities of my dates needs to be judged as far more important. The Wisdoms have given me a much better look at myself. I was especially moved by the forgiveness piece Basha wrote concerning her dad. It was truly memorable. I recommend this book to all men who truly seek a spiritual connection. I dream about the kind of relationship that Basha and Jeff have as described in the last chapter of the book. Thanks for sharing this with us.

5.0 out of 5 stars A great guide to going out there with help, August 5, 1999

By A Customer

Soul Dating to Soul Mating is a wonderful book. As a male in the dating world, I have found that we are continually criticized for being shallow and only wanting sex. The spiritual part of this book, the first part, should dispel all that nonsense and I hope that many women read it so they will be able to see that a man can be soulful and caring. I saw Basha and Jeff speak in Aventura in North Miami Beach and they truly provided inspiration that there is indeed a soul partner out there for me. I now am beginning to ask "who" questions to my date instead of the "what" that is usually the general babble of initial dating. I really feel that if every single reads this book and hears Basha and Jeff speak, then dating in this country will become much better and I believe that marriages will become stronger.
