This is not dating trivia..it's a healthy dose of optimism about something that scares us all, with some equally healthy advice about how to avoid some of the many pitfalls. Laurie's years of relationship counseling experience teaches us not just how to get asked out, but how to get asked out by the people WE WANT to go out with, and how to form mutually respectful HAPPY relationships. Her wisdom is interspersed with delightful "real people" anecdotes and quotes from some of the most clever minds of all time..makes the reading go quickly. A must for the novice dater, as well as the "old pros" like me!!
Funny and relevant

I really enjoyed this book. It's great to know I'm not the only one out there facing these issues. The material was presented in a very readable style. I read the whole book in one sitting even though it is over 200 pages. I'm sure a lot of the things discussed by other boomers will come to mind when I need them most.I recommend this book for anyone facing dating, whether they are a boomer or not.
Excellent read! Highly recommended

Loved this book!!! Great practical advice delivered with humor. The "From the Mouths of Baby Boomers" sidebars tell first person stories of people who are dating now. The author provides powerful insights into how to move past old relationships, a big issue for us Boomers, and start dating again with a fresh perspective. Smart and current. Very much worth the money.
Just what the doctor ordered!

With the divorce rate hovering around 50% for the last couple of decades, this book about reassimilating into the world of dating couldn't come at a more crucial time. Let's face it: those of us who haven't been in the game are socially inept (or worse). We need just what this book supplies, a basic how-to to remove the trauma from our first efforts toward new love.
