Summary: There are no Rules...or are there?
Comment: Sharyn Wolf's book looks at dating in the 1990's. It is written for men and women in their early twenties to early thirties. Although some ideas may be dated, other ideas are applicable today.
This is an optimistic book that is easy to read and understand. Guerilla Dating Tactics explores getting rid of obsolete rules and games, and looking at dating as an adventure. Wolf's first rule is there are no rules. Her book includes many dating stories collected from relationship seminars that she has taught. Wolf explores topics such topics as pickup lines, flirting, where to find singles, what to do and say on dates, overcoming rejection, and working with another to achieve a better relationship. Her book doesn't delve deeply into emotions, feelings, and compatibility issues of dating. The book has useful tips for the intended audience.

Summary: What a breath of fresh air
Comment: Coming out of a long relationship freaked me out. I didn't know what to do first. I'm a good guy, but a clueless guy. This book gave me so many ideas--but, more than that, it made me laugh out loud. I felt educated and relaxed and no longer as anxious about getting out there. I won't say that everything has been a breeze, but I will say that I am much more comfortable with dating and, most importantly, with myself.

Summary: THIS BOOK ROCKS!!
Comment: if you're looking for a nice little formula for getting laid, you won't find it. if you're looking for a magic potion that will make your favorite person fall in love with you, you'll be severely disappointed. if you're looking for a new YOU that people will like... well, if you need that, NO book is going to help you.what it WILL give you is a whole new outlook on approaching interesting and attractive people; hard-headed good advice, and useful strategies for overcomming your shyness. information on how to flirt, proper use of body language, how to recognize signs of incompatibility, and so on. dating is a language, and not everyone is born speaking it. this book is a dictionary. it will teach you how to convey your intent without overstepping bounds, and possibly give you a whole new confidence that can come only with understanding. isaac schlueter

Summary: This stuff works, really!!
Comment: I purchased this book several years ago, after seeing Sharyn Wolff on "Oprah." I was impressed by her straightforward, common sense ideas concerning male/female interaction. The book is written in the same forthright manner. I only disagreed with one idea (be prepared to meet people anywhere, including the laundromat -- my neighborhood laundromat was so scuzzy that I paid extra to use a wash-and-fold service near my office). All the rest of the ideas were outstanding. Wolff's basic premise is to work on being the kind of person in whom your ideal partner would be interested -- have a life, and enjoy it!! I have loaned this book out repeatedly, and recommended it to all of my single friends.
