    Default Anyone read the "The Rules" by Fein and Schneider?

    I couldn't find if this book has been discussed before, but what did you think of it? It's caused a lot of controversy, but the authors and others swear it works.

    Here's some of the stuff I read in it, especially when it came to sex.

    - Never initiate sex, even if you really want it. Let the man do it

    -Never call a man, and rarely return his calls

    -Don't talk to a man first, ask him dance, or stare at him

    -Don't meet him halfway or go dutch

    -Always end phone calls or end dates first

    -Don't tell him what to do

    -Let him take the lead

    Stuff like that. They say to treat the men you like as if you don't like them, because the men that want you the most are the ones that you don't like.

    I believe that those rules work on MANY men. But I would NEVER be able to follow anything like that... nor would I be interested in a guy that needs to feel unworthy of something in order to want it. That whole mentality I find... ANNOYING, its so transparent when a girl likes a guy but is play the b-word just to get him to pay even more attention to her and the guys that fall for it... I don't have much respect for that.

    So while I completely agree that those rules will work and attract and get some men to chase, I question the quality of the ones that get caught up in all that sillyness.
    Scars remind us of where we've been...they don't have to dictate where we're going.

    It sounds like just one more layer of bs to keep people from being openly honest about who they are and what they want and need. If all you want is a man in your life, it might work but if you want a real relationship that merges friendship, sexual chemistry, love, growth and all that can be between two people who love each other - it doesn't sound like the way to go.

    Although I will agree that people in general seem to what what they think they can't get.
