Ignore the Guy, Get the Guy - The Art of No Contact: A Woman's Survival Guide to Mastering a Breakup and Taking Back Her Power Paperback – March 18, 2013

Ladies, I had to come back to this and was compelled to say that you and any woman in your life NEED THIS BOOK to calm the crazy at the point of break up (and even before, if you see or feel it coming... I wish I had this information well before that point.) This book is the BREAK UP BIBLE, and you need to read this over and over, and take it with you. (And I will reiterate... DANG, I wish I had this book earlier in the game!) Even if you don't want to "get the guy" (and there's a HUGE chance you won't even want him back after THIS!) I can personally attest that the information here will help you TAKE YOUR POWER BACK, and help GET YOU BACK to the woman YOU KNOW YOU REALLY ARE with minimal dents and scrapes... and embarrassment over people in your circle thinking you are losing your grip (hint: posting a lot of that "self-help" and positive affirmation stuff on FB can be a dead giveaway!) I was impressed with her social media tips, and followed them myself to a "t", to the point that the only ones who knew about my devastating and painful breakup were my immediate family members and close friends.GET THIS BOOK... Get it for yourself, get it for your daughters, friends, cousins, the woman who cries in the bathroom at work (anonymously... stash it in her desk!) it's an under $10 click of sanity, and the information is a lifesaver the sooner they receive it. "The Art of NO CONTACT" is a GEM that every living breathing woman today (both dating and married) should know, and BRAVO to Leslie Braswell... YOU NAILED IT!

Do you suffer from nice girl syndrome and always strive to be what (our broken) society tells you to be? Aren't you tired of getting hurt by guys? Aren't you tired of finding awesome guys with long-term potential who you go above and beyond for only to be ignored? Aren't you tired of being left brokenhearted and confused? Get this book! I was tired of it too so I decided to learn the secrets, many of which are contained in this book. It's a short, concise read but the information is invaluable. Girls aren't taught to be this way anymore so we have a generation of men who know they can get away with anything and a generation of broken and bitter women. This, along with several other books on the topic, should be required reading for all girls who are coming of age. Read this immediately after a break up, BEFORE you decide to call/text him or post on social media about it. Thank you, Leslie!

Wise advice. I think every girl and woman should read this. Its very simple and the message given is repetitive: ignore the guy when hes playing with you. If he really loves you, he'd jump through hoops to win you back. Something I think every woman has struggled with. If I have a daughter one day, I would want her to read this before she fell in love. It reinforces the whole respect thing, and anything less isnt worth your time. I remember justifying everything that my ex did because I didnt KNOW BETTER. No one talked to me about love. Only that guys want one thing.... can you elaborate please? Lol. It was only after the breakout that I really understood love, and the whole "game." If only i read this book sooner. It wouldnt have changed anything but it would have gave me a little more closure and saved me a year of agony. I'm still learning... and it is upsetting because it does go against who I am as a woman. But i do think this book is very helpful for those who are going through a breakup and need mental clarity. And for those who have yet to experience love.Guys will deny that they do this, but I think whether they know conciously or subconciously, more often than not, they do run. I'm no love expert but many guys have done the whole cutting off contact without a reason to me. So It must mean its true with most men. Its like they think of a reason and forget to tell you or they downplay it and say their busy but still wait for them. And just cut ties. Lol. The book covers a little on that. Men are simple.. if they want you they want you. If they are giving a lame excuse.. maybe they aren't worth your time and you shouldn't put their needs above yours.. They are just aholes who can't be honest about what they want, and would rather run away then see the expression on that girl's face when they break their heart.I wish there was a little more to the book. It does cover the whole no contact thing but maybe a little more would be nice.Reason for the 4 stars, the english used is not the best. She does get her point across though. Im not a grammar nazi but I mean it's a book.. I'd expect like perfect grammar. In fact, I don't think I've ever encountered a book that needed any correcting. But there are some run on sentences, lack of commas, and sentences that need to be rephrased, and some plural words that should be singular. Its like she didn't revise what she wrote before she got it printed... its not every sentence, but it happens frequently throughout the book.

After recently going through a rough patch I needed this book more than I ever knew! I wish I had this book in my life a decade ago. It is straightforward, no-nonsense advice that every woman who has ever been left heartbroken and confused by a man needs. Up until I read this book I was a mess. I couldn't eat, sleep, or function. I was the one doing the chasing. But no more!!! This really is a transformative read and I am so grateful that it came into my life when I most needed it.

It was awesome 👌! This book not only gives you an idea on how to maneuver after a break up,but it also helps you understand what you might have been doing wrong in your current relationship for those who are struggling. .. just my thoughts.
