description: Finally, help has arrived for all the tongue-tied couples on first dates, from the love-struck guy who aches to tell the beautiful girl he's sitting across from how he feels but doesn't want to scare her off after the third date, to the single mom who's falling in love for the first time in years but can't find a good way to tell him she doesn't want more children. From the author of Be Your Own Dating Service comes a one-of-a-kind communication guide that coaches singles through every major conversation that they are likely to have, from the first "hello" to talks on You and Me, money, sex, children, marriage, straight through to ending a relationship or proceeding down the aisle to "I do." As the strong sales of her first book show, the dating crowd loves Nina Atwood's advice. Maybe that's because, unlike other authors, she does not encourage strategizing and the use of specific techniques to win over a desired partner. Instead, she focuses on the process of dating itself and teaches singles how to make this time of their lives fulfilling, whatever their long-term relationship goals may be. Upbeat and filled with practical suggestions, Date Lines empowers its readers to be their best possible true selves while practicing the skills needed for connection and love.
