Get over yourself! How to get real, get serious, and get ready to find true love

Novak, Patti. (Author). Zigman, Laura. (Added Author).

Summary: True love doesn't just happen, notes professional matchmaker Patti Novak. You have to work for it--and want it. Forget speed dates or online dating sites with twenty-page questionnaires. The fact that you share likes and dislikes is great, but it won't mean a thing if you don't feel that zing. And before the first date, you need to get over yourself! Finding your one and only is about being true to yourself, being vulnerable, and being ready for love. Taking a tough-love approach, and in her signature straight-shooting style, Patti will show you how to fix what needs to be fixed, reach your core, and identify who you are and what you want in a partner. Whether you're new to the dating scene, divorced and looking, or just trying to reach that second date, this book will help you get the love you've always wanted--and deserve.--From publisher description.
