Why is it that humans have yet to master relationship skills? Why is it so ridiculously difficult? Amazon has 295,005 books on dating and none of them sound that helpful. The titles sound kind of frightening, actually:

Make Every Man Want You: How to Be So Irresistible You'll Barely Keep from Dating Yourself! by Marie Forleo

Men Are Like Fish: What Every Woman Needs to Know About Catching a Man by Steve Nakamoto

Man Magnet: How to Be the Best Woman You Can Be in Order to Get the Best Man by Romy Miller

Why Men Love Bitches: From Doormat to Dreamgirl - A Woman's Guide to Holding Her Own in a Relationship by Sherry Argov

How to be a Super Hot Woman: 339 Tips to Make Every Man Fall in Love with You and Every Woman Envy You by Mandy Simons and Emily J. Terry

I want to write a book like, "How to be a Normal, Sane Person in the Insane World of Dating: Tips for Men and Women." I might read that. That sounds less aggressive and terrifying. Of course, I would have to figure out what those tips are exactly and make sure that they work. That's unlikely since I still get tripped up over "Chapter One: Establish mutual interest."
