Book Description

1 Oct 2011
Are you the Fallback Girl?

If you've ever found yourself in a relationship that feels and seemingly looks like one but you're struggling with commitment or you've been in the ambiguous territory of a 'casual relationship', you've likely tried to change them, wondered what you 'did' to cause this, what you can do to win their love and commitment, or even whether you're going crazy. Mr Unavailable and the Fallback Girl is the definitive guide to understanding the relationship between emotionally unavailable men and the women that love them. From explaining how and why they blow hot and cold, to where that future they promised went to, how you've ended up being a booty call, why you've been together for a gazillion years but aren't going anywhere, and more importantly how and why you're involved with them in the first place, all of the answers are here. You know you're dealing with unavailability when you ask stuff like

  • What happened to that 'great guy' from the beginning?
  • Why won't he break up or stay away if he doesn't want to commit?
  • What the hell did I do to make him disappear?
  • Is he going to leave 'her' for me?
  • It's because he's shy/busy/scared of his feelings isn't it?
  • Inspired by the real life adventures in unavailability of Natalie Lue and the readers of her site BaggageReclaim.com, Mr Unavailable and the Fallback Girl is an empowering, entertaining and inspiring read that will wise you up to pitfalls such as men who aren't over their exes, Future Fakers, guys that have more baggage than a Heathrow terminal and reappearing childhood 'sweethearts'. If you want to understand your own availability, and why commitment in a healthy relationship is eluding you, Mr Unavailable and the Fallback Girl is your guide to being available and attracted to healthy, available partners. Note - the book is in British English not US English.

    About the Author

    Back in the summer of 2005, Natalie Lue was a single, advertising executive wondering out loud on her blog why she had a penchant for unavailable men. Using her site BaggageReclaim.com to answer that question while transforming her life, her blog has become a go-to source for understanding emotional unavailability, commitment, dating, relationships and self-esteem while inspiring many thousands of people to change their own relationship habits.

    5.0 out of 5 stars A lifesaver! 13 Oct 2011
    Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
    This book (I bought the ebook but will treat myself to the print version too) saved my sanity and stopped me from getting into deep water with an ex (married) who tracked me down on Facebook. It would be equally helpful to anyone struggling with contradictory relationship behaviour (including their own), and/or constantly ends up in unsatisfying relationships.
    The author has lived it and is absolutely clear on how to turn your life around - the answer lies with you. Not him!
    It's helped me in dealings with friends, colleagues and family too.
    No book (apart from the Bible) has had such a positive influence on my life. I've read and binned a dozen self-help relationship books but this ones a keeper.
    I'm really grateful to the author. Thoroughly recommend.

    5.0 out of 5 stars The best book ever! 4 April 2012
    Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
    Recieved this book this morning and have not been able to put it down until it was finished.

    It was like reading about me. Just brilliant and a huge wake up call.

    If you are looking at purchasing this book it is probably because you are in desperation over some guy that you believe is the 'one' but for some reason he wont commit, leave his wife, blows hot and cold etc. But you love him right and you know deep down that he loves you and that one day it will all be happy ever after.

    That was me yesterday when I ordered this book. Having read it I feel like a different person and am not going to be available for Mr Unavailable again.

    Just brilliant (and believe me I have read so many books about this kind of stuff!) I have never ever left a review for any purchase form Amazon before and I order my life from here, but just had to write something because this book is the best thing I have ever read and the author should be sainted!!

    5.0 out of 5 stars I wish I'd found this book 20 years ago! 8 Feb 2012
    By Eva
    Format:Paperback
    Very easy to read, very simple to understand and I can recognise every single one of my ex boyfriends throughout the book! It is written in a lovely matter of fact way. I've really enjoyed reading it and have found out lots about me. I can now at least see the signs of an emotionally unavailable man which will hopefully save me from heartache, although it has made me wonder whether emotionally available actually exist!
