A relationship expert and dating columnist shares her counterintuitive approach to lasting love: encouraging women to date their "non-types" After years of dating, many women fall into a relationship rut. As serial daters, they are attracted to the same type of man time and again. Clearly, something’s not working. But the problem is not that he’s just not that into them—the reality is, he’s just not their type. Relationship expert and life coach Andrea Syrtash hears the disbelief in her clients’ voices when they admit that their "Mr. Right" relationship has again gone wrong. In He’s Just Not Your Type, Syrtash challenges readers to date outside their comfort zones and poses hard-hitting questions: What if the kind of man they think will make them happy never will? What would happen if they dated someone they’d never considered dating? In each chapter, Syrtash shares stories of women who have found lasting happiness with their non-types (NTs) and provides exercises designed to help readers assess their big-picture goals and core values. In doing so, she shows women how to make better choices in dating so they are more likely to find true love.
Andrea Syrtash is a contributor to Oprah.com, a dating columnist for Yahoo and the host of 'On Dating', produced by NBC Digital Studios. Her dating and relationship advice has been featured on The Today Show, The Huffington Post, USA Today, VH1 and on NPR, among others. She lives with her (non-type) husband in New York City.
"In terms of love and relationships, Andrea Syrtash has "been there" and "done that" and has mastered the dating game; in part by throwing away the rules and proving it's not a game at all, but rather a journey that needs to be undertaken with exuberance, honesty and an appetite for the unexpected. Her voice is fresh, funny and relatable and the advice in He's Just Not Your Type is spot-on. I've already given my copy to my single cousin!" --Ian Kerner, bestselling author of She Comes First and Be Honest, You're Not That Into Him Either “Andrea Syrtash offers some of the most practical approaches to dating that I've ever seen. She takes the guess work out of it and teaches you how to lead with your heart. When I read her advice, "Date the person not the potential" it made me smile. Get her book today....and you'll be smiling too!” --Lisa Nichols, bestselling author of No Matter What and featured teacher in The Secret
"As someone who married her nontype, I can confidently say that Andrea nailed the process of how to mindfully date men who recognize and encourage you to be the best version of yourself - and never (okay, rarely) look back on the chumps who came before."
–Kristina Grish, author of The Joy of Text and Boy Vey!
“Written from a place of deep caring and experience, Syrtash points out that what we think we want, and what’s really good for us are often two different things. If this wise book doesn’t jolt you out of your old, broken dating patterns, nothing else will.”
--Evan Marc Katz, dating coach and author of Why You’re Still Single: Things Your Friends Would Tell You If You Promised Not to Get Mad "Confused by your "bad luck"in dating? Then you're lucky to have found this book! Syrtash explains in a fun and entertaining way how you developed your dating patterns - then inspires you to think differently - snagging you different (and happier!) dating results!"
--Karen Salmansohn, author Prince Harming Syndrome
“Finally, real love lessons for single women without any “rules”! Kudos to Andrea for teaching us right from wrong and how not to settle for Mr. Maybe.” --Sherri Langburt, Founder, SingleEdition.com
