Summary:
Just as there is junk food, there is junk love. Junk love is fast, convenient, attractively packaged, widely available, superficially tasty, and leaves you hungering for more. And both junk food and junk love require enormous amounts of willpower to resist. Social media and online dating sites have become the supermarkets of our relationship lives. You have to wade through rows of cupcakes and potato chips to find the produce aisle, where those relationships grounded in intimacy and trust live - the ones worth your investment. Love Rules first asks women to re-assess the way they think about their relationships, and then helps them use that newfound awareness to navigate their love lives more successfully in this fast-paced - and often lonely - digital age. The former Editor in Chief of Cosmopolitan and Marie Claire Joanna Coles provides a series of simple guidelines for finding worthwhile love. She shows how to use dating apps effectively to expand real world connections and how to avoid DADD - dating attention-deficit disorder, where the tantalizing promise of someone better appears to be only the next swipe away.Identify what you want in a relationship, when you should pursue it, and how to find it.
