review 1: Basically a collection of personality archetypes. The featured archetypes are on the low side of the social skills spectrum. We've all been on bad dates (I just had a REALLY bad on last Friday!), but I think it's sad if any woman doesn't already know why he didn't call her back. If you can't recognize what you're doing wrong, how would you ever recognize it when it's described in a book? My inkling is that the rate of "aha!" moments is fairly low with this book. Kind of ridiculous content and definitely forgettable.
review 2: Rachel Greenwald, a self-styled "dating coach," interviewed one thousand men who dated a woman once, and didn't ask for a second date, to find out why they didn't call back. It's not great literature, but it has an almost mesmerizing v... moreoyeuristic fascination. It does provide some general insight into what goes wrong when guys don't call back. The reasons are broken down into broad categories, i.e., too bossy, too boring, too busy, too weird. Perhaps not so oddly, the reasons the women gave for why the guy didn't call back bore almost no relationship to the real reasons. That's no revelation. What's more interesting and revealing is that Greenwald probed beneath the surface reasons to find out what specific actions or words caused the guy to conclude that the woman was too busy, too bossy, etc. Some examples: She flagged down the cab aggressively, she gave too much attention to her cats, she was neglectful of her dog, she spoke harshly to her mother on the phone. Looks were rarely cited as a reason, but not being a nice person was. Reading this book was like eavesdropping on stuff guys usually keep secret. The book is fun, fascinating, and maybe even a little useful for those out there playing the dating game. less
