About this listen

From renowned international dating coach comes an essential, must-have dating guide for men looking to gain confidence and find lasting love in the #MeToo era.

Rejection. Ghosting. Not knowing how to talk to women. For many men, dating just sucks. But it doesn’t have to. There’s a simple, yet powerful, way to gain instant confidence and attract a great girlfriend: Be authentic.

Whether you want to confidently approach women, get quality matches on dating apps, or learn how to avoid the “friend zone”, Dating Sucks, but You Don’t is your step-by-step blueprint for landing your soul mate.

Using the power of “radical authenticity”, you’ll unlock your most awesome self and learn how to:

  • Be magnetic as you...even if you’re not rich, tall, or great-looking
  • Always know what to say to ignite chemistry
  • Get dates and connect with great women without using creepy “pickup artist” tricks
  • Conquer fear and anxiety and confidently approach women (in a way they love)
  • Get great matches and dates on Tinder, Bumble, Match, Hinge, or any other dating app
  • Be a true gentleman of the #MeToo era who respects women and understands the boundaries surrounding consent
  • Create a healthy, supportive relationship with someone who loves you for you

You definitely don’t suck. And when you have total self-confidence and great results, neither does dating.

Be more authentic and less gamey

I enjoyed this book. It focuses on being authentic, having a good mindset, and treating the woman (as well as yourself) with respect.

Though, I do wish he had dropped the male feminist chick. His pushing of that worldview and feminist narratives undermine the more significant point of the book at times. But there is still lots of gold for those who don't share his worldview. If you can tolerate that 10% of the book, it is still well worth it.

The book also gives many actionable tips and activities you can take. You never feel like you are left with knowledge with no idea what to do with it now. The book still gives some tactics without falling into the category of being gamey like other books in the genre.

The best audiobook on being your genuine authentic self when approaching women

I first bought the audiobook as a recommendation in Audible. Then I picked up the print version so I could easily re-read sections and see charts and certain sections.

I have read/listened to plenty of books on dating and this really hits home. It's the most real, honest book and doesn't force you to be someone else or trick dates. It's about being yourself, but better.

Connell is a wonderful speaker in the audiobook. His voice is full of inflection and so pleasant to hear.
I don't know if I would recommend tge book over the audiobook book - so fet them both like I did!

The premise of the book is that you need to get radically authentic. Be yourself, genuine and honest. That way the women you approach will be interested in the real you. And if not, then rejection is normal and just move on to someone else who may like you better!

Every chapter is distinctive and includes personal stories and many techniques to practice.
The section on online dating really breaks it down in how to play that game. How to get the best profile and how to improve your rating in order to meet the best possible matches for yourself.

For cons, the paper the paperback uses isn't the best. So you might want to get the hardcover, it's not much more.
