                 HOW-2 MEET WOMEN: What's it all about?
                 


This is a book in HTML format. Use your favorite Web browser* to read the 
chapters. Start by loading the cover, COVER.HTM, then on to the rest of the 
book by clicking on the 'BROWSE' icon [the Table of Contents is INDEX.HTM]. 
The chapters in the book have been converted to DOS format, which is why the 
file names end in ".HTM", rather than ".html", as would otherwise be the 
case with pages found on the Web. (UNIX and Linux users, please read the 
file 'UNIX.DOC'.) 

Note that the chapters contain links and "sidebars". The sidebars deal with 
such important topics as "rejection" and "the art of telling jokes", and you 
navigate to them by a mouse click, as usual. Similarly, the links lead to 
additional sources of information on the Net, and these may likewise be 
jumped to, though you must be on-line at the time for this to work. 

While some would prefer to "skip around" through the chapters and sidebars, 
it is suggested that the first reading be from front to back, in roughly 
linear order. After that, the sections may be studied in any manner that 
best meets the reader's needs. Note that the sidebars contain important 
supplemental material to the chapters and should not be overlooked. 



This book is the distillation of the author's experiences and meditations 
upon the subject of how a shy single man can meet and relate to women. While 
there is no guarantee that the methods, techniques, and resources discussed 
will be of help to you personally, you can be certain that it will be an 
interesting journey, a learning experience. At the very least, you will gain 
insight into *why* you are still alone. 


This e-text book is "successware". Continued use of the book, beyond a 
14-day trial period, requires that you send a $10.00 registration fee**, on 
the assumption that the advice contained therein helps you in your social 
relationships, or at least in your understanding of them. This is a moral 
obligation on your part, as an exchange of value demonstrates a serious 
commitment to this program, to fulfilling the contract between the author 
and yourself... to changing your life. 

Registering will entitle you to support, and to have questions personally 
answered by the author, via e-mail. Counseling tailored specifically to your 
own personal relationship problems can often help in situations where 
"generic" advice is not particularly useful. Note that the author does *not* 
give advice in areas that might intrude into the province of professional 
counselors.

As an added bonus, registered users receive a handwritten, personalized 
Thank You note, scanned and sent as an e-mail attachment. For an extra 
dollar, the author will additionally send the paper original of the note via 
snailmail. For an extra $10 (total of $20), the author will personalize the 
actual [HTML] title page or cover of the book (your choice) by 
electronically superimposing a handwritten personalized dedication onto it. 
This creates the digital equivalent of an autographed "collectible" copy. 
Printed copies of the book are not available at this time. A $20 
registration also includes a custom CD-R with the latest update of HMW and 
all the author's other shareware and freeware (registered).
