Self-Help Relationships
Let's be honest. No woman really wants to be alone for the
rest of her life. But does being alone mean you're doomed to
be miserable forever? Definitely not! And does being single
have to equal lonely? No way! You can have the best time of
your life when you're single, but you wouldn't know that
from our relationship obsessed society, where celebrity
magazines devote the majority of their content to who's
dating whom and the wedding industry is a $100-billion
business. Yet more than a third of marriages end in divorce,
and countless other couples languish in unions that
shouldn't have happened in the first place. Don't become a statistic—love yourself and never settle! Jen Schefft knows that better than almost anyone. In 2003,
she got engaged in front of millions of people on
television's The Bachelor, only to see it end nine months
later when the relationship just wasn't right anymore. A
year later, she turned down an engagement on The
Bachelorette, and the backlash was relentless. She was
labeled a "spinster" by a celebrity magazine, and a noted
national talk-show host remarked that she would be "a
bachelorette for the rest of her life." This is a terrible message to send to the millions of
sensational single women out there, and in Better Single
Than Sorry Schefft makes it her mission to let women know
that it's better to be single than to be in a relationship
that doesn't make you happy. With testimonials from women of
all ages—single, married, in committed relationships, with
children (even single moms) and without—this book tells you
how to let go of your fear of being alone and how to love
yourself and never settle for a relationship that is
anything less than you deserve. Written in a conversational style, as if talking with your
best friend, Schefft helps you navigate the pressures of a
culture that places an unhealthy importance on being in a
relationship and shows you how to find happiness in work,
home, and the simple pleasures of everyday life. Above all,
she shows you how it's far, far better to be single than
sorry. Being single is a time to have fun, learn new things,
grow, and blossom—not a time to feel desperate or depressed,
so cherish it!
