Online dating. Dating apps. Texting. Social media. Endless swiping in search of forever love. It seems like the more ways technology offers to "connect" us, the less connected we actually are. Modern dating is not for the faint of heart!

Don't Believe the Swipe is not your mother's dating guide. It isn't about "landing a man" or learning to "think like a man" or "getting any man to fall in love with you"; it's about falling in love with yourself and then extending that love to every aspect of your life - including your love life. It's about learning to date without surrendering your power. It's about choosing yourself, regardless of whether someone swipes right or swipes left.

Funny, fresh, and relevant to today's crazy dating world, this book is sure to become your go-to modern dating guide. New York Times best-selling author Mandy Hale draws on her own hilarious and often jaw-dropping experiences to illustrate what it means to stop believing the swipe and start finding love without losing yourself.

There is a way to date with dignity, to refuse to let the swipe rule your life, to stand confident in your worth, and to not settle for less than you deserve. This book is that way.

An Absolute Gift!

Nearly 10 years ago now, I was walking around Barnes and Noble and Mandy's first book "The Single Woman: Life, Love, and a Dash of Sass" called my name. I'd recently gone through a serious heartbreak and the synopses on the back of the book made it sound like it was written specifically for me. That book changed my life, and I've followed Mandy's journey and picked up every book she's released since. I devoured this one in less than two days, and I can honestly say I think it may be her best book yet. There's something magical that happens when you finish a Mandy Hale book. You stand a little taller, your walk a little more confident, your smile a little wider. You stop allowing others, especially people you date, dictate your worth. You begin to go after what you really deserve and choose not to settle for less. I honestly don't know how I would have survived the last 10 years navigating this jungle of single life without some of the lessons I've learned from Mandy's books. She shares just enough of her own story to make you feel like you have found a real friend, a true kindred spirit. But she also shares realness and lessons you need to hear. I've never had the pleasure of meeting Mandy as I'm a west coast gal and most of her meet and greets have been far from here, but in my heart, I consider her a friend. Thank you for this book, Mandy! It will be treasured by many!

Honestly one of the best books I've read..

I bought this book after soooo many failed relationships with narcissists and abusive men. My tldr; take away. Love yourself...appreciate who you are and what you have to offer. And once you are truly loving yourself and happy being alone...the person for you will show up!! I do not recommend dating apps. Tried it and most men want you as fwb..not as a gf! My experience is this...love yourself. Be happy with yourself. Maybe rekindle an old friendship. Do it the "old fashioned way". The love of my life...a good, kind, loving, respectful, appreciative man, came into my life when I had finally given up on men. When I wasn't looking. And I've know him since KINDERGARTEN! Also in my teens. And now as adults after we both had failed marriages. I didn't know healthy until now..and every horrible relationship...led me to him. As for the book. It's true..funny...and to the point. Stop giving yourself up so quickly. Respecr yourself. And find the love of your life. 🥰

This book was amazing! It confirms what your heart knows about love and what it should look like. It's not easy to Not settle! I still have dreams of a fairly tale marriage even though the first one didn't end that way and this book helped show me that all the work I have done on me and loving myself and loving God will lead to that one day.

Mandy Hale does it AGAIN!

I'm not sure if Mandy wrote this book for me or about me, but it was spot ON to everything going on in my dating life. She covers everything from ghosting to love bombing to kitten fishing and more! I felt like every chapter she gave great advice to deal with all dating scenarios. And I have been in many of them! 5 stars, 2 thumbs up! I can't wait to read what she has to say next!

Great “current” dating advice! Actually, the BEST for today’s world!

Reviewed in the United States on April 26, 2021

Verified Purchase

First of all, I love that Mandy mentions “The Rules” books. Like her, I took a hiatus from dating (8 years to raise my son, not 6 months). In January, I signed “back up” and read all The Rules books. I read a few other dating books written by men, I read others by ladies. I was pretty hard core about the rules but after a bit, decided that I would take what I could from each of the books. Bottom line, Mandy’s advice is to remain true to yourself and don’t lose yourself in the process of dating. Use your God given intuition and trust your gut. Honestly, only you can determine if something (or someone) feels right. Also, her advice about owning your worth is PRICELESS. Worthy is my word for this year, so it resonates. Thank you Mandy!
If you are struggling with dating, want some solid advice and a few laughs along the way, then BUY this BOOK!!

Better make sure you don't have anything that must be done before you start to read this. Once you start you won't be able to put it down! An excellent read!

Love Mandy, didn't love this as much as her other books

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on July 5, 2021

Verified Purchase

Love Mandy's writing and all of her past books. In lots of ways this was a really practical and lighthearted read about dating. It was enjoyable and did give me a laugh at times. I hate to say this, because I think Mandy is a fab writer, but some of Don't Believe the Swipe was a tad too cheesy or gimmicky for me. I didn't connect with it as much as Mandy's previous books and felt it lacked a bit of heart.

I felt that the message was a little negative at times, exhaulting women as warriors in the dating pool, equipping them for the inevitable battle they will face against the disappointing, narcissistic and passive army of men out there.
This is a read for heteronormative folks, with a female audience who have become jaded by dating. It was a lot of pro-woman messaging (which is fantastic!) with a hint of anti-man (not so fantastic) and had a touch of ' be warry of dating' (which was on point at times, but discouraging).

I found that I connected with the last 2 chapters. They had more heart in them and felt alot more stripped back of the memes and cutesy language.

Fabulous guide to modern dating

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on June 12, 2021

Verified Purchase

Absolute gem. At first I thought it was just an echolalic expression of noughties tv shows but the advice is priceless. The advice keeps you on the right track whilst dating, takes you thought the steps from online to meet ups, and at the same time the author fosters your self-esteem and keeps you sane and grounded. I was hatfished the other day - I just smiled and knew my fellow Don't believe the Swipers would be behind me, nodding knowingly,
