Product Description

Don''t let the swipe rule your life

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 bestselling 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.


"I am so happy to have this new book by Mandy Hale to help me think and laugh my way to finding the love of my life."--Yvette Nicole Brown, actress, comedian, writer, and TV host

"Where has this book been all my life? It''s seriously the last dating book I''ll ever need."--Krista Allen, actress, comedian, recovering believer in the swipe

"This book cuts through the fog of modern dating and reconnects us to our single most important relationship--the relationship we have with ourselves."--Devyn Simone, celebrity matchmaker, dating expert, and TV host

BreAnn5.0 out of 5 starsVerified Purchase An Absolute Gift! Reviewed in the United States on April 27, 2021 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.

See more 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! 18 people found this helpful Helpful Report Missy Barton5.0 out of 5 starsVerified Purchase Honestly one of the best books I''ve read..

See more 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. 🥰 9 people found this helpful Helpful Report Amazon Customer5.0 out of 5 starsVerified Purchase Great “current” dating advice! Actually, the BEST for today’s world! Reviewed in the United States on April 26, 2021 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).

See more 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!! 8 people found this helpful Helpful Report my3littleguys3.0 out of 5 starsVerified Purchase Disappointing for me Reviewed in the United States on July 16, 2021 I have followed Mandy for years on social platforms, so I had high expectations of this book- the first of hers I have read.

See more I have followed Mandy for years on social platforms, so I had high expectations of this book- the first of hers I have read. While it may be a hit among some, it was a miss for me, and I found myself wishing I would get to the end. (I hate quitting books). I can relate to Mandy- we are of similar age, she references many of the same things I like, and I have shared some similar experiences. The book itself did not contain any new information for me- however, I am a trained counselor, so that wasn''t necessarily my goal for reading, and I do think it contains nuggets of wisdom that others may really benefit from. I would likely still recommend the book to friends or clients who may need the advice she is sharing.
There were two things in particular that led to this being a disappointing read for me. The humor fell flat for me, and the entire book wad filled with attempts at wit and humor. I had expected to enjoy her writing style more than I did. The other thing was having followed Mandy, I associated her as a woman of faith, and I expected this to be woven into her book. There were a number of elements of advice that I felt just were not aligned with how we should approach dating and relationships as a person who is doing their best to live our their faith.
Aside from that, she did advocate for several other ideas I support, such as truly learning to value yourself first, so that you are not seeking this from a dating relationship, and dating breaks from dating altogether as needed. 3 people found this helpful Helpful Report Sarah A.5.0 out of 5 starsVerified Purchase Reality Reviewed in the United States on June 16, 2021 You can tell this was written from experience and not just a book about what someone thinks.

See more You can tell this was written from experience and not just a book about what someone thinks. I only tried online dating for a year, talked to other guys in real life, and there were times it felt like she was supervising what I experienced and let me know that it wasn’t just me. That gave me great comfort in knowing that I’m not the one who is defective. I feel more confident in my own faith and healing journey with therapy and a support group knowing that I’m working on me and the healthier I become, the healthier the guys I will attract and who will be attracted to me and that it make such a difference if God ever does bring the right man into my life. 3 people found this helpful Helpful Report Stephanie Flynn5.0 out of 5 starsVerified Purchase I’m a therapist, and this is a must read for any woman in the crazy world of dating right now!!

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.
