The Get-Your-Man-to-Marry-You Plan

“More practical (and fun) than clubbing him over the head and dragging him back to your lair. A modern approach to an old-fashioned concept.” —Andrea Lavinthal and Jessica Rozler, authors of The Hookup Handbook

What’s a gal to do when her man’s giving her everything she wants—except the ring? This irreverent guide will help you evaluate the severity of your not-so-ready man’s excuses for delaying marriage and sharpen your abilities to dismantle them. With a funny but firm hand, Lori Uscher-Pines—who herself maneuvered for a ring from her now-husband—offers you serious tips for securing a marriage proposal from the excuse-ridden, free-milk-gulping man you love.

The Get-Your-Man-to-Marry-You Plan includes the lowdown on:

• How to know if it’s really time to push for a ring
• The difference between “me”excuses, “you” excuses, and “institution of marriage” excuses
• The severity scale of common male excuses, and associated countertactics
• Behavior fouls not to make on the quest for a proposal

This must-have guide will help you take control of your personal life without giving up the romantic, “then he got down on one knee” moment you’ve always imagined.
