If you think dating is a simple process——meet someone， ask him or her for a date or get asked out yourself， try not to come off as a drooling moron， then arrange to get together for a second date or cut your losses and work to meet someone else——well， lucky you。 For many people， it’s far more complicated than that， and Dr。 Joy Browne addresses those complexities in Dating for Dummies。 Exactly how do you meet a potential date？ How do you present yourself in the most favorable light？ How do you negotiate that first date？ （One interesting story Browne tells is of a couple who negotiated a weekend together， deciding whether or not they’d have sex， and under what conditions they’d consider marriage and children——all before their first date。） And how do you proceed from there？ The process still comes down to chemistry， but Browne shows how many ways there are to make sure you get your best possible chance with Mr./Ms. Right。 ——This text refers to an out

An easy-to-read collection of short essays meant to uplift and inspire soccer moms everywhere, this addition to the Don't Sweat the Small Stuff series offers nothing more nor less than its predecessors. Carlson (whose husband, Richard, wrote the original book) joined him in writing Don't Sweat the Small Stuff in Love. This time, she relates many first-person stories from her own life and those of her friends in a just-between-us-girls tone that's based in part on gender stereotypes (e.g., "our gift of female intuition"; "our sensitive natures").
