I found this book to be interesting. Dr. Joy Browne details how to avoid dating the wrong guy (or how to attract one if that's what you want). She talks about guys who are too good to be true (married, separated, recently divorced, and stuck). The dance away lovers and a 'decalogue' of dunces. She then offers advice about how not to ruin a first impression or first date. And things to avoid doing while dating someone. This is very useful for anyone for is currently or thinking about dating.
