Review: i'm 30 and this book is really good...me and my girlfriends discussed the questions and they are dead on...not pie in the sky stuff but real things to help you think about whether you've got a keep or one you need to throw back. the stats, myths, and other factoids make this a nice book and worth the money. give it as a gift to a friend who's trying to figure it all out!!

Summary: Your Romance Coach Recommends... "Are You the One?"
Review: I'm a Romance Coach, so every time I go to a bookstore, I cruise
the "Relationships" section to see what's new and interesting. I look for something "meaty" usually, thick, weighty, and serious, hopefully saying something new that I can add to my toolbox. On my last trip, I impulsively added an unusual choice -- the small, thin, and light-weight looking "Is He the One?" by Susan Swimmer. 6 by 6 inches, only 120 pages, and covered in pastels with a swoony looking cartoon woman asking the question ("Is He the One?" in a balloon over her head), it just didn't grab me, and I read all the books I bought first before even opening it.

Well, was I surprised. Yes, it's simple, and yes, it's a light-
weight and easy read. But Susan Swimmer has come up with some
heavy-weight questions to ask yourself about a prospective mate.
"How will I know if he's the one?" is a question I get asked
regularly, and Swimmer gives us some concrete mini-tests as a way of finding out.

Here are some of my favorites (and ones my Sweetheart would have
passed with flying colors): When he has a piece of news, does he call you first? Will he share his desert at a restaurant? Do you know how much money he has? And the last one, a real
cruncher: Would you marry him even if there were no reception,
not party, no nothing? Which is of course about you and not
him.

So if you wonder how you will KNOW, this might be a good book for you to add to your romance library.

If he's the one, Susan Swimmer helps to confirm it. If he's not, she helps you see that for real.
