Product Description:
Online dating is the most efficient and effective way to meet the right partner today! Singles'bars have always been dreadful places to meet and, in our increasingly mobile society, family and friends are not always sufficiently close or available to provide potential partners as they may have been in the past. Online dating works! But the process, from logging on to walking down the aisle is fraught with danger and confusion if you don't understand how it works. Romancing the Web, the only online dating book written by a relationship therapist, is a complete reference to the finer points of this process and your ticket to success in this endeavor. Written in an eminently readable style, by a therapist with more than 12 years' experience working with singles and couples in the field, Romancing the Web is filled with real-life examples, such as the following, that help to illustrate both the problems and solutions that singles can find in their quest for companionship in cyberspace. ''Well, let's see,' Cindy begins in response to my question about her recent social engagements. 'Last Saturday I went to an Art Fair with Jake. We really had a good time. We spent the whole day there. Then on Sunday, Tom took me out to dinner at a really nice restaurant. I've been seeing him almost once a week now. On Wednesday Jeff and I went for a bike ride after work. That was fun, too. You remember him, right? The builder I told you about? And tomorrow night, Steve is taking me to a movie.' Before she discovered online dating, Cindy, a very attractive woman in her early fifties, had a great deal of difficulty finding companions to spend free time with because move of her friends, co-workers and siblings were married. As a result, she either stayed home or attended events alone--a victim of her environment and the limited resources for singles in her city. The internet, and online dating, has changed her life.'

- Not just for online dating
This book is excellent, especially for folks just getting back into dating again and who want to do it differently. She has sage advice, and really has you thinking about whether you are ready to actually do online dating.
She covers all topics with great examples. I'm on my second read and using it to reframe what I do want and how I want to get there. Highly recommend.

- Nervous No More!
I'm in my 30's and recently went through a divorce. My friends kept suggesting on-line dating which didn't seem to appeal to me. I was just to nervous and uneducated with the whole thing to give it a try. One of my friends gave me a list of books to read to help me get started and one of them was Romancing The Web. Reading it helped with the nerves and I was on my way. Once I got comfortable navigating on-line I became nervous as to what would happen if I finally found someone! Resources like Romancing The Web helped me with not only the online issues(chapter 6,"The Rules"), but also with the what happens next(chapter 7, "taking it slowly"). It's an easy to read book with lots of helpful tips!

- Life is Good!
At first I was apprehensive about on-line dating, but with the right tools like Romancing The Web, you can have great results. Great book! Practical info - easy to use. I'm in a relationship for the first time since my marriage ended and it's going great! Slowly - as Diane recommends - but great! Thanks!

- Help for the Hopeful!
I am a therapist and work with a significant number of single persons seeking meaningful relationships. I stumbled on Romancing the Web in a local bookstore and was impressed by the information presented and the easy-to-follow approach. Ms. Berry's guidelines are thoughtful and appropriate and very helpful in establishing a healthy partnership. I have taken to recommending this book for all of my online dating clients!
