"Human beings fear the unknown. So, whatever's freaking you out, grab it by the balls and say hello. Then it ain't the unknown anymore and it ain't scary. Or I guess it could be a shitload scarier."
Fans of the #1 bestseller Sh*t My Dad Says will recognize the always-patient voice of Justin Halpern's dad as it crackles through the pages of this hysterical new book. The story begins when Justin takes his dad out to lunch to announce that he's decided to propose to his girlfriend.
"You've been dating her for four years," his dad replies. "It ain't like you found a parallel f*****g universe."
But eventually he gives Justin some advice: that he should take a day off and think back over everything he's learned in life about women, relationships, and himself before making his decision. And that's just what Justin does—revisiting everything from his disastrous childhood crushes to the night he finally lost his virginity while working as a dishwasher at Hooters.
I Suck at Girls is full of his dad's patented brand of wisdom. But it's also full of new characters just as funny as his dad—from his brother, who provides insights into wedding night rituals ("You stand in one corner of the room, and she stands in the other. You each take off one piece of clothing at a time") to his first boss, who warns Justin to man up: "That's what a man does. He takes his shots and then he scrubs the sh*t out of some dishes." The result is a pilgrim's progress through the landscape of sex and love—by one of the funniest writers at work today.
This book had me in stitches. It is just hilarious to hear some of the wisdom and tips that the author was given. I truly laughed out loud over it. I also felt warm and fuzzy because, despite some of the crassness, there is love behind the stories and that is what makes this book 100% charming. If you need a good laugh don't let this book pass you by. Pick it up today on Amazon....

As a little girl, I would go on my aunt's lunch dates with her and by watching her, I learned how to flirt. Thanks, Aunt Carole!

Don't go to bed angry
I never really got any advice on dating and marriage.
My husband told me what his grandmother told him, "You love her, but do you like her?" That really made him think.
I'd love to read this book. I love to laugh and this sounds really funny :)
If your partner is like a rock around your neck, slip the rope and swim alone.

My sister once told me: Pick your battles. Be prepared for all out-war, or let it go. The man knows when I say "I'm serious about this...." that I mean it. Never needed to go farther than that.
