Product Description

Amazon.co.uk Review
If you think dating is a simple process--meet someone, ask him or her for a date or get asked out yourself, try not to come off as a drooling moron, then arrange to get together for a second date or cut your losses and work to meet someone else--well, lucky you. For many people, it's far more complicated than that and Dr. Joy Browne addresses those complexities in Dating for Dummies. Exactly how do you meet a potential date? How do you present yourself in the most favourable light? How do you negotiate that first date? (One interesting story Browne tells is of a couple who negotiated a weekend together, deciding whether or not they'd have sex, and under what conditions they'd consider marriage and children--all before their first date.) And how do you proceed from there? The process still comes down to chemistry, but Browne shows how many ways there are to make sure you get your best possible chance with Mr./Ms. Right. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

First Sentence
When the For Dummies folks called about a revision to my original Dating For Dummies book, now several years old, I originally thought that not all that much had changed about dating: Dating, after all, is still about two people who are interested in one another and want to get together at a specific time and place. Read the first page

2.0 out of 5 stars wonderful? Maybe not, 16 Oct 1999
By A Customer
i read this book with intrigue as i slowly paced myself through each page, hanging on every word. After a few hours i decided to try the 'steps' outlined by the book. I chose a suitable partner, and walked over to her in the supermarket - KaMpooM - she slapped me in the face! Not a good book, believe me!

3.0 out of 5 stars not realistic enough, 18 Nov 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: Dating for Dummies (Paperback)
after reading her section on places to meet the opposite sex, I fully reject her ideas on the places not to meet the opposite sex. My sisters, 4 of my cousins and several of my friends and myself, all met the "right one" at bars. My other cousin met his wife at work. And these people all married people in high-income groups:lawyers, vice-presidents, doctors, etc. Meeting at work is one of the best places to meet. So, if one person has to quit the company, so be it. At least the person found the one that they were searching for. Overseas in Asia, people normally meet at work or in bars. So, in this area she is dead wrong.
