Not Your Mother's Rules

The New Secrets for Dating

By: Ellen Fein, Sherrie Schneider

Narrated by: Ellen Fein, Sherrie Schneider

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!

Best dating book ever

This book was very helpful and honest. It covered areas I didn’t think it would. I plan on reading all the other ones. It has been improving my dating life.

Great content, Terrible voices

I like the content, but there are multiple voices for one book and most of them are terrible. Wish there was only one quality voice... Such a bummer!

Excellent book! Definitely the rules book

Definitely has good points! Seen some points that this book points out when I observed couples out in public. Excellent narration, I even read this book over 5 times!!

Timeless advice! What a great book!

This book is for women of all ages, who are serious about dating successfully. The book provides clear guidelines around dating in today's world of technology.

Common sense that's not so common.

This book is full of logical and practical advice. It comes across a bit harsh, but if you listen and understand the reasons behind the actions, it makes perfect sense. So many women I know (myself included) have wasted so much time and heartache. Setting proper boundaries and respecting ourselves, our time and our lives first is a must! The narration is just okay and the "daughters" voice was quite annoying. Still a "must read" for every teenage girl or newly single woman!
