My new book Ms. Typed: Discover Your True Dating Personality and Rewrite Your Romantic Future is about a movement I want to start among women. I wrote the book because I want women to feel empowered to change their love lives. It’s time for women to stop feeling bad about their past and excited about their future! Just because things haven’t gone the way you want them to doesn’t mean that they can’t or that they won’t. When you personally change in certain ways, it will have a ripple effect across your life, especially when it comes to romance. You have the power to transform yourself and your love life into something amazing! Just because you haven’t found “the one” doesn’t mean that he isn’t out there or that there is something wrong with you…it might simply mean that you are Ms. Typed.
Who is Ms. Typed?
Ms. Typed is one of the many confident, attractive and successful women who often ends up in unsuccessful relationships because she behaves in ways that don’t accurately reflect who she really is. She does the things that she thinks she has to do be make a relationship work, when more than likely those things are going to sabotage the relationship. Instead of being her authentic self, she tries to be who she thinks men want her to be or whoever she needs to be to win in love.
Recently I appeared on the Today show to discuss why women are so competitive and snarky towards each other. It’s funny because people think that women should be nicer to each other than men are to other men, but the truth is that women can be really mean and nasty to each other. Whether in your social circle or at work, you have probably run into women who hated on you for no reason or even tried to sabotage your success. You might even have friends who always have something nasty to say about somebody (and when you left the room, the person they talked about might have been you!).
A long time ago I started moving away from people who gossip a lot or who are constantly looking for bad news. It always felt like they were hoping something bad would happen–they didn’t want to hear that things were going well in my career or relationship, they wanted hear about some drama.
On Saturday I visited the Today show to talk about how to understand your dating personality and how it affects your dating relationships. We discussed several dating types and what you can do to improve your love life. Check out the video!
