you lost him at Hello. A saleswoman Secrets to closing the deal with any guy you want by author jess. McCann Excerpt from Chapter one. It's not him. It's you, the common denominator. Several years ago I was sitting in a cafe in Georgetown, having breakfast with my best friend Addison. She had dragged me out of bed that morning to talk about her most recent relationship, which like many before was headed downhill fast before I could even order my cup of coffee, she declared that her latest would be boyfriend. Gavin was an *******. She then proceeded to give me the play by play of their relationship with her usual enthusiasm. He never calls when he says he will. He acts like he likes me one minute. But then I don't hear from him for days. I'm just so fed up with men in their games. I listened as good friends do as Addison vented her frustration. She rambled on about Gavin's commitment phobia, how his hot and cold behavior drove her up the wall and how the next time she saw him, she was going to give him a piece of her mind. But somewhere between the words jerk and player. I realized that this most recent relationship disaster sounded a lot like her last one. In fact, when I thought about it, it seemed like getting dumped was becoming a pattern for her As Addison was about to call this guy an ******* for the 10th time. It hit me.

It did seem a little odd that all the guys she liked drove her crazy and eventually ended up in my a especially since each relationship started out so differently. Yet somehow she kept getting the same result. I realized I knew what was happening. There was only one common denominator in all of Addison's relationships and it wasn't the men Addison. I said, do you ever think maybe it's not him? It's you?
