Weed Out the Users, The Couch Potatoes and The Losers! Every day, I receive emails from readers who have been caught up in the tricks of users and losers. Intelligent women who fall for the chiseled good looks, the boyish grins, and smooth lines are desperate to understand what they did wrong. The answer is simple - you chose the wrong man - and that is your only mistake! You'll meet a user - you'll probably meet many and you may even have an enjoyable night or two with a couple of them, but he won't date you - not in the way you want to be dated anyway. He won't meet your parents. He'll say he likes your cat when he doesn't. And then one day, he will stop calling and returning your texts. Even though you had a feeling, a hunch he was using you, it will still hurt like hell because you've been used, and that just sucks. After you do this enough times, you'll die for a decent man. When a woman dates blindly, she gives up her heart too fast without a proper screening mechanism. She compromises her boundaries just to keep a man in her life. She chases and nurtures a bad man when she should be screening him and potentially dumping his ass if he doesn't make the cut. There is no guide, until now, to help women weed out the users and losers. Women are wasting days, weeks, months, and even years of their lives getting played because they don't understand how to properly expose men who currently are not, and may never be emotionally available.
