"A good read, funny yet informative and every male and female can relate and learn from this no matter if teen or "grown up". I love that illustation of girls having spegetti brains and boys waffle ones. It so makes alot of sense. It was nice that certian heavy topics like sex were approached with honesty. Not just saying NO, but why to wait, and why not waiting and being too physcial damages a relationship. Not just teen relationships but adult ones as well. Certianly that is not the impression one gets from teh media is it? Perhaps it woudl be better for males and females to develop friendships, for that to be the drive even if they are ready for dating and marriage. Maybe then relationships over all would be healthier and last, be deeper and not jsut based on shallow fluctuating emotions."

— Amber, 11/9/2012" Liked it, but it was definitely geared more towards a younger audience. Some of the advice doesn't apply to me anymore, or I've already learned the lessons. The bulk of what I found interesting came in the explanation of the waffle/spaghetti analogy. "
