esperanzado Posted August 24, 2013 Posted August 24, 2013 How bad is this? B/C I think it's bad... Also, how much is there to "he's just not that into you" book by Greg Behrendt? This is a really interesting compilation of quotes from the book: Greg Behrendt Quotes (Author of He's Just Not That Into You) I usually hang out in another place on LS but thought you all would have some feedback.
MrCastle Posted August 24, 2013 Posted August 24, 2013 I think the book is one man's opinion on dating and relationships. Not a scientific textbook for women to read about to finally understand every man they meet. 2
todreaminblue Posted August 24, 2013 Posted August 24, 2013 I think the book is one man's opinion on dating and relationships.

fanine Posted August 24, 2013 Posted August 24, 2013 Hmm well according to this men are are never busy as he seems to think if a man is using that excuse he is lying! He seems to have a thing about that word. 1
Auguria Posted August 24, 2013 Posted August 24, 2013 I do not like being called "adorable". It sounds childish, deprived of any sexual tension or attraction. It's just blah. On the other hand, use the verb and we can talk. It's completely a different ball game when my man whispers "I adore you...". 1
Star Gazer Posted August 24, 2013 Posted August 24, 2013 Hmm well according to this men are are never busy as he seems to think if a man is using that excuse he is lying! He seems to have a thing about that word. These are actually two quotes that I wholeheartedly believe in and refer to from time to time as a reminder: “If he’s not calling you, it’s because you are not on his mind. If he creates expectations for you, and then doesn’t follow through on little things, he will do same for big things. Be aware of this and realize that he’s okay with disappointing you. Don’t be with someone who doesn’t do what they say they’re going to do. If he’s choosing not to make a simple effort that would put you at ease and bring harmony to a recurring fight, then he doesn’t respect your feelings and needs. “Busy” is another word for “*******.” “*******” is another word for the guy you’re dating. You deserve a fcking phone call.” “I'm about to make a wild, extreme and severe relationship rule: the word busy is a load of crap and is most often used by *******s. The word "busy" is the relationship Weapon of Mass Destruction. It seems like a good excuse, but in fact in every silo you uncover, all you're going to find is a man who didn't care enough to call. Remember men are never to busy to get what they want.” 4

Remember men are never to busy to get what they want.” I guess if he doesn't call or return calls for two days, saying he is busy is a load of crap. But if it is a couple of hours, then he should be given some slack In this day and age with mobile phones it just appears some people get in a huff if there is not an immediate response to a text and call....we can't all be glued to our phones....

Remember men are never to busy to get what they want.” We may not agree on everything, but you are sane. Totally agree. It isn't ALWAYS true [for example in my relationship now, if he is busy, I know he truly is BUSY. ] but for early dating stages, it is a tell tale sign.
charlietheginger Posted August 25, 2013 Posted August 25, 2013 Ok let me get this straight? Womens dating books say "rarely return his calls" So a guy calls and the women rarely returns his calls? What does a guy do ? He stops calling becuase she does Not return calls for a few days.... A guy is never to buzy to call? Hey author of the book working 60hrs a week or doing a real job besides sitting around writing books. Then When you do call she does not pick up right away and your alreadt In bed.... Imo these selfhelp dating books do more damage to dates then Helping them.... A women playing her dating game the rules is suposed To be buzy, rarely return calls,end calls first. but a guy is supposed to be a pest calling, chasing, persuing ? If he really " is into her " while she is instructed to cancel Dates , be buzy , not return call.... Wtf is wrong with the writers of these books maybe they Should get together actually write a real book called" we don't Know wtf were talking about " 2
