Dating For Dummies 

Trusted guidance on meeting Ms. or Mr. Right

With new and updated content, Dating For Dummies, 3rd
Edition includes all the information you’ll need for navigating the
contemporary, social media driven dating scene where women and men
Google potential dates beforehand, Tweet after, and even meet on
Facebook. You’ll find all you need to use these social media sites
and take advantage of the ever-expanding ways to socialize, flirt,
and date in the 21st century. With dating advice for singletons in
all stages of life (including baby boomers), you’ll get the
confidence to date someone who is significantly older or younger,
someone who has been previously married, or someone with children.
Author Dr. Joy Browne, America’s favorite psychologist, demystifies
the whole dating process, from getting a date, plotting the place,
and having a great time (or dealing with duds) to moving beyond a
first date toward a budding relationship.

* Confidence boosters to help meet, date, and start a
relationship with Mr. or Ms. Right

* Safe tips and advice on using social networks like Facebook and
Twitter to meet new people

diversity

happily-ever-after mate, Dating For Dummies is the guide for
you!
