Don't read this expecting actual help. Read this when you're bored out of your freaking mind getting hopped up on caffeine at a Barnes and Noble. Then laugh hysterically at the sexist bullshit this author thinks is the way to land a man. Way to perpetuate the female archetype of manipulator.
I totally rated this book the same as the first. My thoughts on it are the same. As well as the fact that I really did read it at a Barnes and Noble hopped up on too much Starbucks.

I love this book. When I was single I couldnt understand why guys would stop calling. After I read it I made that mistake a lot less. Great book if you have a hard time hooking them and keeping them.

In "The Rules II," the authors expand on their popular relationship advice book, providing additional insights and rules for women seeking love and fulfillment. Building on the principles of the original "The Rules," this sequel emphasizes the importance of self-worth, emotional strength, and setting boundaries. The authors guide readers through various aspects of dating, including navigating mixed signals, dealing with commitment issues, and maintaining healthy relationships. With a witty and relatable tone, they empower women to take charge of their love lives and create lasting connections based on respect, communication, and mutual growth.
One rule I love is not accepting a second date with a man who doesn't call you within a day of your first date. Some women might think that the man should have leeway but no. Men will tell you they didn't call within a day because they're "busy", but a man who is interested will call within a day of the first date. I went on a first date with a guy who told me he's busy and doesn't usually call a woman quickly after a first date because of his "busy" schedule. On OkCupid there are questions people can answer and one question is how soon do you call someone after a good first date and he answered that he calls right away or within a day. This shows men lie to spare your feelings. He told me he took time to call because he wasn't interested in me and wasn't going to call me again anyways (he never did). Don't listen to people who say these rules are outdated.

June 26, 2008This book does not necessarily represent all I believe to be true about relationships, but it is a lot of fun to read out loud on a roadtrip with girlfriends!

I don't believe in any of this, but it's such a funny book without intending to be.
