A great review of a very interesting book examining when guys are just "not that into you" and the women who constantly try to make excuses for this fact.

*He's Just Not That In To You...The No Excuses Truth to Understanding Guys*
by Greg Behrendt

Classic case....you really like this guy, but he’s giving mixed messages. You make excuses, decide he’s confused, afraid of commitment. Behrendt, a former executive story editor for Sex and the City—and a formerly single (now happily married) guy who knows all the excuses—provides a simple answer: he’s just not that into you. Stop kidding yourself, let go and look for someone else who will be. After all, as Behrendt sensibly puts it, "if a (sane) guy really likes you, there ain’t nothing that’s going to get in his way."

Following review by Charmaine Bee

".....why do we need a book that outlines examples of dishonest behavior to let us in on the fact that a man doesn't care about us? Why must it be written out for us in bold black and white text that when a man cheats on us, no matter what his excuse, he's not as into us as he claims to be?

I also have my doubts about why the author seems to continually reinforce the idea of the male assuming the role of aggressor ((COUGH..VICTOR...AHEM)). Why can't a woman go after what she wants without being called too aggressive? I mean, seriously, let's step out of the Stone Age. If women left the drive to "get what they want" at home, we'd still be waiting to be allowed to go to the polls. Let's not insult our own intelligence."
