I ordered Steve Penner’s book “The Truth About Dating Revealed” after reading a couple of his articles online – which were so good that I posted them to my blog (http://www. find-a-sweetheart. com/blog/ ). It came in the mail yesterday and I ready it practically in one sitting. As I said in my blog, “This guy knows what he is talking about. ”
Penner ran a dating agency in Boston for 23 years, and during that time, amassed plenty of information and opinion on what makes it easier or harder for singles to meet up and eventually marry. He packages his experience here in “The Truth About Dating Revealed” as Dating Quotient (DQ), and what raises or lowers a single’s “datability. ”
I am a Romance Coach, and Penner’s observations totally agree with what I have seen or suspected. I work with singles to use Internet dating sites, and the advantage that Penner offers – his direct observations of what works and what doesn’t – gives us a powerful peek backstage. Penner’s clients had the additional advantage of his experience and advice, and sometimes his powerful push. Internet daters rarely get this kind of insight. Penner’s mantra is “Be flexible, be very flexible. ” Read his true life stories in the last chapter “And so, in conclusion. . . ” You’ll be glad you did. And you’ll be closer to finding love as a result.
I’m adding “The Truth About Dating Revealed” to my must-read list for clients. It’s a winner.

A witty, interesting, and informative read where Steve draws on his huge data base formed after 25 years of running a Match Making business. He talks in generalities and reveals to us what the opposite sex is really looking for in a mate. For some strange reason both sexes have big misconceptions about what turns off and attracts a potential mate. In the first few pages he reveals “The single most important attribute women are looking for in men. ” No, it’s not money or good looks. I’m an eligible mature man who belongs to a widows club and after reading Steve’s book, I verified the accuracy of statements made in this book by asking each man and each woman at a house party what they thought this most important attribute was. Every man guessed wrong. Every woman agreed that this is what they most want in a man. I have dated woman who have revealed things to me on a first date, that sent my mind spinning on how to end this date. Steve mentions these things in his book. I discovered that I have many traits that turn off many woman. I would have never guessed. I suppose I could down play these things now that I know how women feel about them, until they get a chance to really know me. An informative read for both sexes.
