He's Just Not That Into You

Greg Behrendt and Liz Tuccillo

Blurb: The six little words that changed dating forever.

For ages women have come together over coffee and cocktails to analyse the puzzling behaviour of men. Greg Behrendt and Liz Tuccillo are here to say - despite good intentions - you're wasting your time. Men are not complicated, although they'd like you to think they are. And there are no mixed messages.

The truth may be he's just not that into you.

He's just not that into you if he's -

-Not asking you out

-Too busy to pick up the phone

-Doesn't like the words 'relationship' or 'boyfriend'

Based on a popular episode of Sex and the City, this book educates smart women on how to tell when a guy just doesn't like them enough, so they can stop wasting time making excuses for a dead-end relationship. With Greg and Liz's words of advice, you can set yourself free to find the guy who really is into you and would love to show you how much.
