This sounds like such a useful book for a lot of people. I was interested in reading your review and learning more about this book because my husband and I actually met on eHarmony but we had completely different experiences with online dating. He was online for about two years before we met but I wasn't even on for two months. I think this could be very helpful for women to gain a man's perspective and to know how men might react to things women know they have done in the past with dating (maybe they can avoid some things men really don't respond well to). I enjoyed your review very much.

It's a great book for this 21st century where almost everything can be done online.

Oh wow! So many of my friends have been through online dating (several even met their spouses-to-be this way!) and I heard so many mad stories about it! A guide sounds like it would be very welcome!

I know of people who have tried online dating; some ended with great marriages while others continue the search. I don't think I'll be participating in this anytime soon, but it would be interesting to see what Guy has to say.

Dating online for four years until he found the love of his life... the author is very persistent! This book seems to cover most aspects when dating online, but I'd also like to know about his success in his last relationship. I'm curious about it. Thanks for this nice review!

What an interesting book! I'm also a woman and I agree on your point of wanting to read it for a laugh, but also to see a man's perspective on dating. If only the book was longer! I'll have to check the book out either way. Thank you for the review.

The struggles the author experienced when trying to meet women sound very realistic. I think he gives good advice on how to spot red flags, like women who always want to meet their dates in secret or women being perpetually bitter over a past failed relationship. Given the increasing popularity of online dating, I think this book could be a very useful tool for anyone who is interested in online dating, regardless of their gender.

Starting to date again in your mid-fifties sounds like a nightmare. I think this novel will be fun to read, as Tanya states, I would also like to know what goes on in the male dominated mind.

This is definitely insightful and useful. Though I think it's just one perspective and could have some contradiction.thanks for the review.

Online dating is booming nowadays through the success of the internet. There are more interracial couples now than before. This is a practical guidebook on how to spot lies or scammers on online dating platforms since the author shares his experiences, and gives tips and advice. I'm excited to read this one since I like to connect with foreign people, and I know how to have better interactions with them. I just hope the author also shares if he found his perfect woman after four years of searching. Anyway, I like the book and your review!

I believe the book will offer valuable advice on dating, helping me navigate a world full of choices. The more I understand myself, the less likely I am to get hurt in the outside world. Thanks for the review!
