description
This book isn't about catching men or reeling anybody in. Catching is for nine-year-olds playing freeze tag, and reeling is for trout. This is about you, considering the possibility that you're tripping over your own feet, no matter how much of an amazing, smart, hot, totally worthwhile ass-kicker you may be as a general rule. Some food for thought:
-Don't be the "men are pigs" woman. She's boring. She's unhappy. And the good men don't want her.
-Don't demand the right to set arbitrary rules, let alone change them every five minutes. Act like a crazy person and you'll be treated like one.
-Realize when he doesn't want to talk and give him that space. Men don't usually feel the need to share as much. Respect that or watch him shut down even more.
. . . In other words: If you're looking for a different approach, this book has one.

Why You’re Still Single is not about chasing men, so you will not need a butterfly net. It is not about making them chase you, because they are not wolves and you are not a bunny. Relationship experts Evan Marc Katz and Linda Holmes do not suggest that you treat men like hostile alien presences, pretend you don’t understand football, buy padded bras, or refuse to call people back. But the benefit of other people’s experience might point out a few things that are tripping you up, no matter how much of an amazing, smart, hot, totally worthwhile ass-kicker you may be as a general rule.
They recommend: Honesty (usually), playing fair, shutting up (sometimes), speaking up (other times), respecting that voice in your head that says "You’re doing WHAT?", making compromises, knowing when to cut bait, good sex, giving yourself a break, being needlessly generous, and periodically leaving your apartment.
They don’t recommend: Pretending to like what you don’t like, treating winking and giggling like a Get Out Of Jail Free card, testing people, stubbornness, martyrdom, talking everything to death, and convincing yourself that you’re desperate.

Women who hate men who hate women
Do I want to date right now? I don't know
maybe
The desperation tango
Your friends may be hazardous to your health
Insecurity kills more relationships than infidelity
Tip your baggage handler
The balance of backbone
The power of no
You are what you hate
The right to change your mind should be revoked
Don't play games
Guys don't go both ways
The platinum rule
Use honesty to manipulate
Jealousy? ha!
Humpty dumpty did not live happily ever after
I'm sorry, we don't make change
I think my ear is numb
Diminishing returns
Two become one?
Everything you say can and will be used against you
Boyfriends with boy (and girl) friends
I just love your shoes!
Get over it
The equal time rule
The beauty myth is not a myth
Good girls don't
Who are you and what did you do with my girlfriend?
Deal breakers
Rose colored glasses don't actually make the world rosy
Disciples, acolytes, and other unequal partners
Hitting on 20.
