Description
Same app. Same night. Two different planets.
He opens a dating app and hears crickets. In one study, men’s test profiles matched less than 1% of the time. She opens the same app and gets buried: two-thirds of women under 50 who’ve used the apps have faced unwanted messages, pushy contact, or worse. Each assumes the other has it easy. Neither does.
In The Market, the first book of The Romance Codex, David Bryan Smith does for modern dating what Men Are from Mars, Women Are from Venus did for couples: he shows men and women the world through each other’s eyes. He’s candid and fair to both sides, and he backs it with real research from Pew, Science Advances, and dating-app data.
You’ll learn:
- Why the same app feels so different to men and women, and why blaming the other sex gets you nowhere
- What “leagues” really are, and why aiming a bit up beats aiming for the top
- The research on why people misjudge their own attractiveness, and how to get an honest read on yours
- What each sex screens for first, and what makes someone stay
- The 12 Real Value Indicators that matter far more than height, income, or a full inbox
- How to build an honest profile, turn matches into dates, and stay safe
- A 30-day plan, with worksheets, for men and for women
Stop guessing. See the market as it really is, and make your move.
