Hi Paige,

Finished your book. Loved it! Very empowering. Very practical and way more realistic than "The Rules".

Like the newsletters, too!  Keep them coming!

Hi Paige,

Just a quick note to say that I downloaded your book yesterday and had my first date last night. (I know, I'm a quick mover!) I have read the first 8 chapters and had tons of resistance to the advice, BUT, I know that my way wasn't working so ignored my cynicism and gave it a shot. During the date I felt in control, I didn't waffle, I hadn't obsessed about what to wear, I was relaxed and most importantly was myself. We had a nice evening and now I'm going to follow the next step and NOT CALL no matter how much I want to. If he is interested he will call.

So, once again, thank you. I also appreciate the follow-up emails with tips as it would be very easy to read a bit, say in my head "yeah, good advice, must follow that" then do what I've always done, get what I've always gotten and say it was the book not me.

I'm self aware enough to know my own games and I printed the Dating Without Drama contract and have it stuck in my dressing room.

My friends thank you as they have been trying to get me to believe I deserve and can have a loving, beautiful relationship. I always date the needy, creative types and wonder why I'm not fulfilled.

Next date is this weekend. What a difference a day makes...

Best Regards
Your latest convert

Paige,

Absolutely loved your book!  You really cut to the chase and told us how it is...not how we want it to be.

I have just started dating a man (8 dates) and your section on chemical in the brain kicking in (infatuation) really helped me.  I like him but I don't need to bury him under "my need to know what you are feeling" questions.

Your book helped me realize that I can be wise, be safe, and still enjoy this dating thing.  You gave really good pointers.

Thanks for writing this book and sharing. You go Girl!

Paige,

Thank you so much for your valuable message.

Indeed all your tips are very good and I know I won't go wrong because my friend Paige Parker is always there for me, provide me with good tips for a better relationship.

Thank you so much!

Hey Paige,

I was so excited to get "smart & savvy," that last night after purchasing your eBook I began reading and am happy to say that by this afternoon, I successfully completed reading ALL of your material.

I just started seeing someone about 3 weeks ago, so I am considering your advice to be my divine dating intervention to not sabotage what I have.

The timing is perfect and now I will put all the great advice to use!

I will keep you posted in the weeks ahead!

Thank you so much.

Hi Paige,

Funny, I got the phone call I was waiting for after 3 days today. And I used the lessons I learned in your book. It went great.

Thanks for the advice!

Dear Paige,

My goodness, what a fantastic writer and encouraging person you are! THANK you so much for your wonderful advice. I must tell you, it came as 'perfect timing.'

I now see how I can live inside my head and focus too much, too soon, on one person.

Your book helped me to see the different types of men and know how to respond.

Paige

Just to let you know that I was in deep despair this morning, but by 3 o'clock having read your book I am a new woman, most of my mistakes you uncovered!!!

Great book and I have recommended it to my friends already!!!


Well done!!

Hi Paige,

I just wanted to contact you to tell you how helpful your book has been to me.

Recently, I met a great man and things took off at rocket speed. Everything was going along well and then all of a sudden ... I felt him pulling away.

My mind was full of questions. Did I say something wrong? Did I do something wrong? Did he lose interest in me?

I am so glad I found your book online - I NEEDED it right then and there. I had a melt down and I am convinced that your book SAVED me from making grave mistakes. At first I was skeptical of your writings - really, I was - BUT you have been right on the money. Thank you for showing me the light.

One of the things I really appreciate about "Dating Without Drama" is that it encourages a woman to be independent, do her own things, feel happy, and maintain her integrity and self-respect. A good man is just part of the mix in a fulfilling life.

This book has saved me from potential heartache and acting like a drama queen. Believe me, I have had to use restraint - but I can see that by following your advice I feel confident and full of respect. (You are a genius!)

Finding love takes a lot of guts. All women should prepare themselves by reading this wonderful book.

Thanks Paige!

Dear Paige,

I loved your book! I felt like you had written the story of my dating life. Every example you gave of "what not to do" was something I have done in the past. (Which is probably why most of my relationships have not worked out!) But I am ready to reform my ways!

The best part about DATING WITHOUT DRAMA is that it's written in such a conversational way - it feels like how I talk with my girlfriends! It's fun, funny and just really real. You nailed every action that we always want to instinctively take when it comes to dating. I would recommend it to every single girl out there.

-Kim, New York, NY

Dear Paige,

Dating Without Drama is the BEST! I downloaded it and
IMMEDIATELY read the first 50 pages. I couldn't STOP!

I've always considered myself strong, independent. I've
always attacked possible relationships like i attack my career. I MAKE IT HAPPEN. (The choice of words MAY just be an indicator as to what I was doing wrong!) But in those first 50 pages, I began to see that the tactics I chose were not the most conducive to enticing possible dates.

You tell it like it is, but the best part is that you tell me WHY. So, I'm letting control go a little, and I'm trying the Paige way!

BTW, after putting your suggestions to the test, I immediately got THAT call from THAT guy I'd been waiting for.

THANK YOU!!!

-Meredyth, Venice Beach, CA

Dear Paige,

I have been divorced now for 12 years. I am 43 years old. My last relationship was a confusing mess, so I purposely have not dated for 3 1/2 years. I've just started to put my toe back into the water of the dating world and thankfully got hold of your book.

When I received "Dating Without Drama," I realized that I have not learned very much in these last 3 1/2 years of being out of circulation!

Oh, Paige! Thanks so much for your book and your honest style of writing! I am glad to have this info at the start, rather than crashing on the rocks of depression later."

-Susan, Corpus Christi, TX

Hi there Paige,

I have completed your book and can only say thank you. I found it incredibly useful, there are spot on pointers in your book which should help every single girl out there when dating.

I realised that the relationship I was in was unstable and I just knew I had to get out. Since the split, the changes have been absolutely unbelievable. I have been really focusing, my health has improved dramatically, I am more content, not depressed like I was before. I have thrown myself back into my hobbies, my reading, writing my book, dancing, friends and my work is improving as well, these were all the things I was trying to gain when we were together, but I couldn't...so now it's all positive.

I can only thank your self help book and kind words as well to help me get along in these last few months.

Thanks once again!

-Jo, United Kingdom

Dear Paige,

I've finished "Dating Without Drama" and have begun reading it again.

Your book is very helpful to women like me who feel they are dating someone who is "emotionally unavailable" or the man is just "not that into you".

Thank you for all you do and your insight to the world of relationships.

-Jeanne, Oakdale, MN

Thank you so much Paige. This is so much more than just any book! I look forward to receiving your emails too.

-Bernice, Ann Arbor, MI

Hi Paige,

Your book was so much fun to read (and it was an easy read too)! As a single woman, it’s so hard to figure who to listen to, but you’re clearly an expert when it comes to this stuff!

My favorite parts of the book are about meeting the friends/ family, and dealing with the transition into commitment/"I love you" phase. I have been seeing an incredible guy for the past few weeks, and I find myself thinking about all of these things. No matter how much I believe I am a fabulous, wonderful catch that no friend or family member would turn away, it still helps to have some tips when going into those situations. And we always do care what they think!

When I first bought your book, I was a little worried that it would read a lot like "The Rules", and that it would basically tell women that we have to take a back-seat in this game. But you really made the "rules" of dating about letting women take control and making decisions that work for them. Thank you!

-Jennifer, Virginia Beach, VA

Hi paige

I just wanted to reply to the messages that I have received from you, just to say how much they have helped.

I have been dating a man for almost 10 years. I am positive that he has been cheating on me most of that time. I have tried everything in my power to make things work and be who he wanted me to be.

I have listened to his lies and allowed him to take control of me and make be the back guy until the point that I no longer know who I am.

I found your eBook by accident when searching on the internet and it really has made a difference when nothing else had.

I have now found the strength to move and although it is early days and I feel like calling him up and saying sorry I have not. When I do feel weak I read your e-mails and book and it makes me stay strong thank-you I hope you continue with your work.

-Sally, San Antonio, TX

Paige,

I wish I would have had this book 8 months ago!

Your book gives wonderful advice for those carefree yet crucial first encounters that set the stage for a productive, healthy relationship.

Thank you for your time and for the incredible effort of such a wonderful book that I know will help a lot of women to have more productive, healthy lives.

Hi Paige,

I have just finished reading your book. I cannot tell you how many times I nodded my head, smiled but at the same time was compelled to bang my head on the table! :o)

I did almost ALL of the Do Not do items on your list. But whatever it is, I just want to acknowledge you for such a practical book. It is helping me recover from my recent break-up. It was torturing to not understand what I did wrong hence worrying about repeated episodes in the future.

Sad thing is I have already lost a very special man. He has asked to just be friends. Good thing is, I am keeping myself occupied and holding my head up high this time around. So next time, I'll be A LOT wiser.

Your book is just simply refreshing. I love the layout and how it flows and the simplicity of it. I'll keep you posted! Let's hope I'll be one of your success stories? You can be sure I'll spread the word around about it.

Thanks girlfriend!

Paige!

I really loved your book - it was an easy read and very witty. I especially liked the parts where you emphasize "dating yourself" (don't be desperate) and taking the time to determine if the man you’re seeing is boyfriend material. You're right, some are so desperate to have someone - to make it work, they'll take anyone who will have them. But not “Dating Without Drama” girls, of which I am now proudly one!

-Amy, Washington, DC

Hi Paige!

I wanted to say thank you for writing such an excellent, useful book. It is awesome...it is helping me like crazy to cope with my dating in a sane, healthy way.

I look forward to re-reading it to make sure that I learn its lessons.

I love receiving your emails too. Great job!
