As little girls we fantasize about growing up and finding our "Mr. Right." Someone who is good-looking, smart, funny, educated, loyal, family-oriented...the list goes on and on. And yet, who would have thought that one of the most important criteria wasn't even considered? Mr. Right needs to be straight! Looking for Mr. Straight: A Guide to Identifying the Closeted Gay Men You May Be Dating is aimed at helping women like you become more aware of an important, yet controversial dating issue: the closeted gay male who doesn't know or want to know that he's gay. This book shares real women's stories, including my own, about the ongoing struggle to find a heterosexual man. First-hand tips and insights will help you recognize the key factors associated with gay men in the closet such as classic comments, unmanly mannerisms, and unusual bedroom behaviors. In time, you will be able to apply these insights to the real world and learn to just go with your gut! My hope is that you come to understand the reason for so many unexplained behaviors, dating encounters, and failed relationships. As someone who has been through it, I'm here to reassure you that there IS something behind the feeling you have when "something doesn't seem quite straight."
