Product Description

A brilliantly witty and entertaining guide to interpreting men from a writer and a consultant of Sex and the City, which has become a publishing sensation in the US. A no-holds-barred decoder of male behaviour, this book isn't just about eliminating the bad apples -- it's also about holding onto the good ones. Content: / This hilarious, playful, but honest explanation of male behaviour from a writer and a consultant of Sex and the City, is designed to stop women wasting their time chasing after men who aren't into them, and help them to move on and find men who really are. / The line, 'He's just not that into you', was developed out of a conversation between Greg Behrendt and his fellow female SATC writers when they asked his advice one day. It became an episode which struck a powerful chord with viewers. / The wisdom of the book can be summed up by the following: men don't want to tell women when they're not interested and women don't want to hear it anyway. / Upfront and forthright, the book explains why the man you're waiting for might not be worth the wait or all your excuses. / The book's positive message: It happens to the most beautiful, funny, interesting and intelligent women - it just means that it's time to say 'Next!'

Customer Reviews

A good read if you are heart broken
I can understand both points of view regarding this book. But you need to realise that although some points raised in this book may seem incredibly obvious, when you are going through a break up you are unable to think rationally. You tend to think (well I did anyway)of the good times only and really forget (or choose to ignore) the bad times. That is why this book is a good read, it gives you a reminder of all those bad times and it basically tells you "he is just not that into you". It was just what I needed after my breakup because I did over analyse/make excuses for him when in actual fact he really wasn't that into me. And that was the best approach for me to get over my ex.

If you are really over an ex or in a rational state of mind :-) I wouldn't advise you buy this book because it may just seem silly to you and blatently obvious. But when going through a breakup it was perfect as it was just what I needed to hear.

Found Mr. Right!
This book is a must read for all women because it is a time saver! No need to waste precious time on someone who isn't into me. With great humor, this book gives me insight that men are clear with their actions. If someone isn't into me, I no longer have to take it personally.

As Greg & Liz's book has helped me confirm that I'm currently with a wonderful man who is really into me, Ariel & Shya Kane's book "How To Create a Magical Relationship" is helping me maintain a loving and lasting relationship. I suggest reading this book as well if you're interested in finding Mr. Right.

Thank God, an explanation!!
Ladies, you MUST own a copy of this book. I read the book in one sitting and found myself inwardly cringing at all the excuses men had thrown at me that I'd believed (and I really wish I'd had this book a couple of relationships back, I may not have made such a fool of myself!). And also, some of the excuses I'd made FOR the blokes who weren't 'that into me'.

I had never bought a relationship 'self-help' book before but admit I got caught up in the Sex In The City hype when this was released and thought I'd give it a try. Now, I cannot recommend this book highly enough!

It's quite amazing that modern, independent women of the 21st Century are carving out lives and successful careers for ourselves; but when it comes to relationships, we put up with so much garbage. Instead of feeling in control, we feel powerless, unattractive and unworthy.

The only problem with this book is; it's absolutely right. As you read it, you begin to feel a bit narked that in order to find Mr Right, you have to wait for him to come to you. And if that guy you've had your eye on, doesn't call or pound down your door- it's quite obvious he's just not that into you. Isn't that annoying? But he's right. Anyone of us can look back at our previous relationships, both successful and not quite so successful and find examples that back up what Greg says in this book.

It's brutally honest; but Greg comes across as your big brother, campaigning for you, pushing your beauty and self worth and reminding you that you really are a gem. Even women in relationships should keep a copy of this book to refer to whenever needed. It's a gem for any woman's book collection.

This book is invaluable!
