Synopsis

How long should I wait to respond to his text message? Can I friend him on Facebook? Why did he ask for my number but never call me?

When The Rules was published in 1995, its message was straightforward: be mysterious. But for women looking for love today, it's not quite so simple. In a world of instant messaging, location check-ins, and status updates, where hook-ups have become the norm and formal one-on-one dates seem a thing of the past, it's difficult to retain the air of mystery that keeps men interested.

Now, with help from their daughters, the original Rules Girls Ellen Fein and Sherrie Schneider share their thoroughly modern, fresh take on dating that will help women in today's information age create the happy love lives they want and deserve. Whether you're a 20-something dating for the first time, a 30-something tired of being single, a 40-something giving advice to your daughter, or a 50-something getting back in the dating game, this book has the answers you've been waiting for. The Rules include:

Stay Away from his Facebook Profile Make Yourself Invisible and Other Ways to Get Out of Instant Messaging Stop Dating a Guy Who Cancels More than Once Text-Back Times Chart Don't Just Hang Out or See Him 24/7 TTYL: Always End Everything First-- Get Out of There! And much, much more!
Providing the dos and don'ts you need to stop making mistakes and start finding romance, Not Your Mother's Rules will revolutionize dating today just as The Rules did nearly 20 years ago!

Goodreads review by David on May 15, 2013

updates and repeats (and repeats) the basic "play hard to get" message from their mid-90's book by applying it to social media and so forth. Mostly pretty obvious -- if you needed a new book to translate "wait at least four hours to call him back" (1995) to "wait at least four hours to text him back......more

Goodreads review by Rflutist on February 03, 2013

This book blends old fashioned dating advice with 21st Century technology. What could be better or more useful? It would make a nice gift for the newly single and/or those who are returning to dating after a hiatus. The only reason the book doesn't get a five star rating is that some of the stories s......more

Goodreads review by Dee on July 20, 2014

The rules in this book seem really old fashioned, but everything works. They should change the title to "How to Tame a Player and Keep Him."......more

Goodreads review by Sky on August 21, 2013

I found this book very good with its teaching of self restraint, mortals and basically everything you would have been doing in the olden days -- being busy and getting on with your own life, not making guys your LIFE, like many teenagers today, and by the way, this is coming from a nineteen year old......more
