Did anyone watch 20/20 tonight?

They had a feature on this book:

http://abcnews.go.com/2020/Valentine/story?id=425514&page=1

Advice on getting your boyfriend to propose to you.

I only saw the end of the segment.  It looked like the authors of the book gave advice to some women who were in long term relationships.  One girl stopped using their advice, and moved in with her boyfriend.  No ring for her.  Another girl followed the guys advice, and it seemed to work.  20/20 showed them later ring shopping at Harry Winston's!

I didn't see it, but it sure looks like a "Rules" written by men, to me.


"...Why don't they just come right out and say it? 'Diamonds...that'll shut her up!' "

My thoughts exactly. It would be interesting to see what mens 'rules' are. Such as 'Soon means after football season but before baseball spring training.'

How about you?

I might see if I can find a cheap, used one on Ebay.  There's a lot of people that auction off their resources (wedding magazines, wedding planners, bridal books, etc.) after their wedding.  You can get some decent (but used) things fairly cheap.  I got the book "ANTI-BRIDE GUIDE Tying the Knot Outside of the Box" for like 80% cheaper.  By the way, that book is pretty good.  It has a few unique ideas that I would love to use!

Hmmm... well I read the Rules, they are practically my dating bible so I guess this book has a lot of the same advice. My relationship five years ago before the rules was terrible, so I give it credit with changing my life. I know, I kow sounds crazy but true. If it is the same as the rules, I would suggest it to my friends.

Here's the book with a starting bid of $0.99

Not sure if I am going to bid on it or not.  If any of you go for it, best of luck bidding!

Ladies- it is an o.k. book, but nothing that is rocket science.  I'm always looking at those kinds of books- which basically all have the same message.... "continue to be fun-loving, have lots of interesting things to do- friends to hang out with and he'll come around".
