He's Just Not That Into You


Well, what can I say about this book? It was one of the most honest, horrifying, compelling, rude, funny books I've read in a long time. He's Just Not That Into You is a book written to women by a MAN! This is a new concept, which is weird because one would think that men should be the ones writing these books since they are the main topic. But anyways. I absolutely LOVE this book. I read it in 2 days and might read it again just to make sure I soaked up everything important.
This is basically a self help book geared towards women in horrbile, unfulfilled relationships. But unlike most of these self help books, it doesn't sugar coat the truth. It lays it all out there for the reader, so there isn't any confusion about what is being said. Just by reading the title, you can tell that there isn't going to be any bullshit.
The authors, Greg Behrendt and Liz Tuccillo, give both sides of the very messy things that are relationships Greg gives you the no bullshit meaning to what guys say and Liz gives you how she reacted to these excuses and let you know that the way you react is normal.
It is a really easy read and it, not only gives you glossary for what men are trying to say when they say things, but gives you hope and confidence that you will find someone worth sharing your life with. I'm young and maybe not ready to get married but i also don't want to be alone. But Greg gives you good reasons as to why it's better to be alone then to be in a shitty relationship; that lowering your standards only perpetuates the cycle of horrible men knocking at your door.
I recommend this to anyone looking for a change in their love lives, whether they are a woman or a man. I say this because it could possibly teach a guy what he's saying and doing that is wrong; to learn if he's sending the wrong messages or sending messages that he doesn't mean to send.
So, if you feel like your love life has hit a "rocky road" a whole lot of "rocky road" then read this book. you'll feel refreshed and ready to conquer all the men in your life.
