Summary

In February of 1995 The Rules was quietly published - and dating has never been the same since! Now here comes The Rules II, the book every Rules Girl has been waiting for, the book you helped write!
Drawing on the most commonly asked questions from the thousands of letters and calls to The Rules hotline they received, authors Ellen Fein and Sherrie Schneider show you how to do The Rules in even the most difficult - and tempting! - situations. Here are new Rules tips for weeding out Mr. Wrong - and sorting out your own feelings; recognizing when a relationship is really a fantasy; dating a man who is separated; talking to your therapist - yes, in some cases, you can tell your therapist you're doing The Rules; dating a high-profile man or a celebrity; dating when you yourself are very wealthy/successful/famous; giving him gifts; getting him to the altar; and much more, including how The Rules apply to same-sex relationships, older women, on-line dating, long-distance relationships, getting back an ex, having office romances.
How does a Rules Girl handle a long-distance relationship? An office romance? A weekend invitation from a high-profile man or celebrity? How do The Rules apply to on-line dating and personal ads? Are The Rules different for mature women? Can The Rules benefit people in same-sex relationships? Friendships? Family relationships? Can a Rules Girl date her best buddy if she's attracted to him - rekindle the flame with an ex?
The Rules II answers these questions and more! The sequel to the #1 coast-to-coast bestseller that revolutionized modern dating, it was written in response to the thousands of letters and telephone calls authors Ellen Fein and Sherrie Schneider received from readers doing The Rules. Packed with expanded, more detailed do's and don'ts; encouraging, stick-to-it advice; scores of new tips; and success stories from women like you; it's your latest guide to the way of life that leads to self-respect, self-esteem, and, most of all, a happy and healthy marriage...
