since "the rules" is really popular, and well discussed in media. are men aware?
SO told me a few months ago that when we first met (2 years ago) he "knew" i was following "the rules", but he liked me so much he let it slide. he doesn't like games, he is very straight foward & expects the same. i wasn't following them (have never read the book, don't believe in games either). i was just me. erplexed idk how much he knows about the rules, but i thought it was an interesting comment.
has "the rules"/other dating advice books for women come up in your relationship (as far as discussing it/him thinking or "knowing" you were following them)
eta: i talked to SO about the Steve Harvey book because my mom bought it for me. Interesting choice only in that she is a white woman & i'm a black woman & i can just imagine her seeing it on Oprah or something & thinking "MY DAUGHTER SHOULD READ THIS" lol. She meant well. he read his mom's copy. i guess he wanted to know how men think too . i don't recall him being very impressed. my friend is reading it right now.
