Pushing seventy years of age and being very happily married to my soul mate for decades, I certainly didn't need the information in The Flirting Field Guide. But I read a book of pick-up lines a couple of months ago, and it was entertaining at least. So a guide to flirting piqued my curiosity enough to download it, with absolutely no expectations.I was impressed with the book. First of all, it's not a guide to get a woman in bed in record-setting time. That's a different set of skills entirely, often involving copious amounts of alcohol. This guide is for guys who keep hitting a brick wall when it comes to flirting with women, getting their attention, and moving into a real relationship. The author writes from a woman's perspective in giving advice to men about what intrigues a woman and keeps her interested. She uses a step-by-step approach, followed by mind exercises to build confidence. She emphasizes the differences between men and women and their expectations.The book teaches men to move from terrifying situations into their comfort zone by teaching the knowledge and skills necessary to be confident and apply that learning in order to be successful in flirting with women.My take on Ms. Kirk's book? It's a short, very readable book with a very practical approach to flirting, aimed at men who lack the knowledge and/or confidence to ever get to first base.
