Publisher's Summary

Everybody wants someone to love and spend time with, and searching for your ideal partner is a natural and healthy human tendency. Just about everyone dates at some point in their life, yet few really understand what they're doing or how to get the best results.

In Wired for Dating, psychologist and relationship expert Stan Tatkin - author of Wired for Love - offers powerful tips based in neuroscience and attachment theory to help you find a compatible mate and go on to create a fabulous relationship. Using real-life scenarios, you'll learn key concepts about how people become attracted to potential partners and move toward or away from commitment and the important role the brain and nervous system play in this process. Each chapter explores the scientific concepts of attachment theory, arousal regulation, and neuroscience. And with a little practice, you'll learn to apply these exercises and practical techniques to your dating life.

If you're ready to get serious (or not!) about dating, meet your match, and have more fun, this book will be your guide.

Annoying voice of narrator

The book was recommended to me and the content was great, lots of useful tips on finding a mate and then maintaining the relationship. The narrator's voice is really nasal which made it a struggle to listen to.

Engaging and succinct

This book does a great job of analyzing attachment types in an engaging and succinct way. It present easy to digest concepts without becoming overly restrictive in it's definition of personality types.
The reader was animated without being annoying. Overall, I very much enjoyed this and it helped clarify quite a few different ways of approaching dating, and really, just understanding other people.

Very useful!

I'm so glad to having read this book! It opened my eyes on my mistakes in former relationship failures. Tactics and methods in this book are valuable both for those who just started dating and to already married
