Listen to Greg and take a leaf out of his books gi

"He's Just Not That Into You: Your Daily Wake Up Call" and "It’s Called a Break-Up Because It’s Broken: The Smart Girl’s Break-Up Buddy"

It’s the wake-up call none of us want to here – especially if we’re head over heels for our possible Prince Charming – but it has opened the eyes and ears of many women world-wide who wonder “Why hasn’t he called me?” “Why hasn’t he kissed me?” ‘Why did he give me a bogus phone number?” “Why can’t I meet his friends?” The reality is… HE’S JUST NOT THAT INTO YOU which leads to the inevitable IT’S CALLED A BREAK-UP BECAUSE IT’S BROKEN!

Best-selling guide books for girls, written by a man. Who would’ve thought it would be such a success? Greg Behrendt provides a hysterical description of male thought processes and consequent behaviour. It’s like the guy’s take on Sex and the City, and the fact that girls are alien to this sort of insight makes his verse even funnier and seemingly unbelievable than ever thought possible.
Behrendt teamed up with Liz Tullico and wife Amiira Ruotola Behrendt (respectively) to write these books in order help women move past their failed relationship and break-upstages. This is not to say only women pine after exes, many men struggle with the same concept of ‘letting go’, but there is definitely far fewer male perceptions of relationships on the public market than that of female wisdom. Personally, I think both guys and girls can benefit from this literary wisdom, otherwise I am assuming all guys are fickle and women are commitment addicts. These books work for women and men reeling from a break-up or unexplainable relationship confusion.

Behrendt’s break-up logic is like ordering a coffee. You dabble at the counter just like you enter a relationship. You debate over what you feel like ordering just like you try and figure out how you feel in your partnership. And whether sipping your coffee or immersed in coupledom this enjoyment is never 100% fail-proof. When the coffee starts to run out and the bliss starts to fade all it means is that it’s the guys turn to call ‘Next!’. Don’t take it personally, Behrendt offers. Apparently men, more than women, are in many relationships for the ride, waiting for the next thrill-seeking opportunity (the grande caramel latte of women) to come a knockin’. Other than that they are either married or on the run from the law – my advice: embrace the break-up and steer clear of these ones!
