Are you ready to turn your romantic fortune around at last? Dr. Debbie has discovered eight behavior patterns that are typical of dissatisfied singles and will teach you how to recognize your romantic style, understand why you make certain relationship choices, and take powerful steps toward creating the lasting love you deserve.
•The Old Faithful: longs for the one she can’t have and is unable to move forward
•The Whirlwind Dater: constantly dates but never finds a fulfilling, permanent relationship
•The Standstill: rarely dates and has a difficult time relating to men on an intimate level
•The Forbidden Fruit Hunter: gets involved with emotionally unavailable men who may be married or already have a girlfriend
•The Compassionate Rescuer: always dates the guy who has problems, putting her energy into “fixer-upper” boyfriends
•The Wanderer: just one man is not enough to fill the void, so she always has a lover or potential boyfriend on the side
•The Uptown Girl: only attracted to men with money, prestige, and looks
•The Runaway Bride: good at relationships until asked to commit—then finds a way to end the relationship, pronto
If you long for a lasting, committed, loving relationship, All the Good One Aren’t Taken has the key to unlocking your heart.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
The New York City psychologist known as "Dr. Debbie" here pinpoints a handful of women's common dating errors.Solid relationships, she says, founder on insecurity and innate negativity, and she goes on to catalog eight types of "dissatisfied singles" in the chapters that follow. "The Whirlwind Dater," is "attractive and vivacious" but substitutes constant activity for real groundedness." "The Forbidden Fruit Hunter" gets involved with men who are married or otherwise emotionally unavailable, often because they are replaying lack of love in childhood. And then there is "The Runaway Bride" (who got her own movie in 1999). She "might be very smart and insightful about other people" but clueless about her own deepest dreams and true ambitions. Writing with freelancer Peske, Magids offers plenty of dating testimony from a variety of women, allows readers to identify parts of themselves in straightforward terms, and gives concrete correctives for making change.
