MANILA, Philippines?I love the novels of Nicholas Sparks, like ?The Wedding? and ?The Notebook.? His books tell of a kind of love that lasts forever. But for a touch of reality, I read Sherry Argov?s ?Why Men Marry Bitches: A Woman?s Guide to Winning Her Man?s Heart.? It teaches us girls not to be too nice to our boyfriends. It gives lots of tips. When you go out, the guy should pay for dinner. Or if he texts, you shouldn?t answer right away and look too eager. These are simple rules to follow. It?s good preparation if you?re planning to go into a relationship.
