take some and leave some
I must agree that the rules will work, but im not able to say that the relationship will be 100% genuine. its not that you are starting a relationship based on lies, because rules girls dont lie! your just being light and brezzy and "hard to get" which is somewhat common knowledge. this book was published in the 90's and can be out of date in some people's views. for instance text messaging didnt exist in the 90's. today texting is huge! so what if a guy texts you? do you respond, or do you ignore like you should be doing with the phone calls?? i suggest that you take some of the rules and leave some of the rules. according to the rules, you should practice them religiously, but Elen Fien, author of the rules, was divorced after her second edition was published, "a rules marriage". Such a parody.

intro to the rules
What are the rules?
if you go to the self help section in any bookshop, you will find multiple books dedicated to relationships, whether its maintaining one or obtaining one to begin with! My girlfriend introduced me to one specific book called "the rules: capturing the heart of Mr. right" i read the book instantaneously and became ecstatic and eager to spread the information from this book onto the rest of my girlfriends! what I've learned thus far with the rules without getting too into detail with them , is that its probably best to take some of them and leave some of them.
i will sum up the rules in one short paragraph
Men are hunters, you cannot deprive a man from the hunt! Ladies, you cannot pursue men! if they are not coming onto you, its probably for a reason! men like a challenge, if you take this away from them, your cutting the relationship short. you are doing a man a favor in the long run by letting him long for you. don't be available! don't answer his phone calls and rarely call him back. do not see him more than twice a week in the beginning of the relationship. be mysterious but honest! rules girls are honest! act like you live this happy exuding life! be light and breezy and never mention children or marriage! he should initiate these conversations and introduce you to his friends first! never go dutch on a date, let him pick the place and make all the plans! sound crazy? i thought so too at first, but these rules have been proven to work. its basically an old fashion style of dating. we will weed through the rules and see what to take and leave behind:)
