Has anyone read that book "The Rules"?
From what I hear, some of the advice is pretty archaic...and they actually advise you to never call a man back, even if he calls you.... what is that all about?
Just curious to see what you guys thought about it.
By the way.... I have read:
Dating Without Drama : Awesome !
He's Just Not That Into You: Did anyone really need to be told that if he was married he's just not that into you?
Why Men Love / Marry Bitches: Awesome As Well !! And a major wake up call to some of my worse tendencies.... doormat girl anyone?

I have not read the book "the rules"
And Even thought its strongly suggested to NOT EVER call a man i think thats crap. Its called a relationship for a reason, things can't be one sided or it wont work out!
What man do you know that will call constantly and not give up??? NONE! Unless there crazy, obsessed, or a psycho stalker! In which case, NO WONDER YOU DONT CALL HIM!
LOL
I love the book, why do men love bithes!

I have read the rules and dont agree with never calling a guy back, I would be turned off by a guy that kept calling me over and over again. I would also find him majorly controlling and sufficating! I know there is a plenty of women that have persued men but I dont think it works. I have heard that men just went along with it because they figured why not if she is offering. But its made them think they are needy and insecure.

I have read the rules. The no calling rule is not that you NEVER call a guy back. It's just that initially during the early stages of dating, you never call a guy. You only call him if you are going to cancel a date. The thinking is that you are busy in your great life (some of othe things DWD tells you) so that he knows you are a busy lady and worth chasing. The rules is a bit archaic but basically the same stuff that Paige is teaching.
