For many varied reasons, a vast numbers of adults may find themselves single. Maybe they've postponed marriage to concentrate on a career. Perhaps they find themselves alone after divorce or the breakup of a long-term relationship. Or maybe their reaching out again after the death of their spouse. But the one thing they have in common is questions, questions, and more questions about just how to reenter the dating scene. The Unofficial Guide to Dating, Again explains the range of dating options available today and provides practical tools that will help readers assess their needs, research their options, and make decisions accordingly. Touching on such issues as STDs, AIDS, date rape, sexual harassment, lifestyle changes, social changes, and self-esteem, along with concerns about stepfamilies, children, and mature dating, this book will provide unbiased, street-smart information to those facing this adventure once again.

Summary: The Unofficial Guide to Dating Again
Comment: Tina Tessina has written a wonderful book on dating that tells it like it is! There's "life" out there in the singles world - and she tells you how to make the most of it. "The Unofficial Guide to Dating Again" is informative and quick-paced with all kinds of practical advice that makes getting back in the dating scene easy. The chapters are smart and right on target.
I know so many men and women who need to read and re-read her sections on: "Not just looking for dates but enjoying life," "Invite Interest by Showing Interest," and "Focus on Fun and Friendship." Too many people don't do this - and its soooo important! Even if you've been out in the dating world a while, this book is a great way to brush up on your dating skills and review some new possibilities. In fact, I think a lot of married couples would perk up their relationships by reading the sections on Sexual Intimacy and Communication!
For people re-entering the dating scene after being attached a long time, author Tessina takes the fear out of going back to being single. This should be on the "Gift Registry" for anyone who's ever been divorced!
So if you'd rather die than date - don't! Get yourself a copy of this book and you'll be ready in no time for dinner and a movie with someone new. It's a terrific guide for both men and women back in the dating scene.

Summary: HOW DATING HAS CHANGED SINCE I DID IT!
Comment: All the dating rules have changed since I became single again. Sure, some things remain the same. Be polite, honest and have a great sense of humor. The biggest thing that is different is Internet dating. The idea of going online is a concept my generation could never conceive of, since there was no such things as personal computers during my dating years. After 30 years of marriage and a protracted divorce, I was ready to get back into the game, but scared to death. This book was very helpful, insightful and easy to read. I would recommend it for anyone who wants to start fresh. Since I'm a baby boomer, there was another book that has helped me more than any other. The author of Baby Boomer Bachelorette: How to Have Sex at Least Once More Before You Die doesn't pull any punches when she urges baby boomers to separate themselves from the herd and change their lives. And she is right there ready to tell you exactly how to do it. She says not to bother with trying to meet people anywhere other than the Internet. Sounds like good advice to me. Buy both books, and then go for it!

Summary: Awesome Book, Great Advice, Easy Reading!!!
Comment: If you've been away from the dating scene, divorce, dumped on, separated... you name it then this is the book that you'll want. I had applied most of the lessons that were highlighted in the book and it total changes my approach and strategies to dating. Now, my friends are using the same book and I could be any happier with my successes =-)

Summary: Need a bit more help
Comment: Having been out of the dating scene for awhile I thought I might pick this up. Ok, so it's been 10 years. I've been wrapped up in alot of things and just didn't have the time. This book is one I picked up just to bring me up to date on whats going on. There is alot of useful information for me but like I said I've been in the dark ages for awhile. It's a good book and one you should read if you've been dateless for some time.
Truth is the one I missed on was this whole switch to online dating and let me tell you I was lost. But I picked up a few more books on this subject so I wouldn't get blindsighted out there. I would strongly recommend to any man or woman out there the one that got me off the ground and soring so to speak. " How to get the Woman of your dreams using the Internet" and "How to get the Man of your dreams using the Internet" What mroe can I say but there is nothing that isn't covered in this book, and when your done you can't keep up with all the responses :)
