How to Make Someone Fall in Love With You in 90 Minutes or Less Kindle Edition

3.9 out of 5 stars 221 ratings

Building on the power of first impressions, Nicholas Boothman shows how to find and meet the love of your life—and have that person fall in love with you—in a mere 90 minutes, or approximately the time it takes to have a first dinner date. Now in paperback, this follow-up to his bestselling How to Make Someone Like You in 90 Seconds or Less is updated throughout with information on Internet dating, bringing together all of Mr. Boothman's considerable interpersonal skills to the problem of finding lasting love, fast.

And it works: The feedback Boothman has received from a number of his clients begins, "Please come to my wedding. . . ." Starting with a series of revealing self-assessment tests that show how to find your Matched Opposite (a person who makes you feel complete), here is how to make a fabulous first impression, with tips on everything from attitude to accessories; how to be charming, not alarming; introductions, opening lines, and the 1-2-3 mantra of never hesitating. There are techniques for starting and maintaining conversation and for finding "Me Too" moments, plus the importance of flirting, incidental touching, rules of self-disclosure, and more. Real-life examples and analyses of actual conversations show the method at work.

Editorial Reviews

From the Inside Flap

It's time to stop leaving love to chance. Time to stop being too shy to meet someone, wondering why a promising first date wound up going nowhere, or realizing too late that it happened with the wrong person anyway. Nicholas Boothman has a much better way.

Drawing on his expertise in Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP), Boothman charts a three-step plan that will help anyone find the love of his or her life. Step one: get ready come to know who
you are through honest self-assessment, and then to know what type of person is your matched opposite i.e., the person who completes you. Step two, the heart of the program, is working seriously on interpersonal skills how to be charming, not alarming; flirt with confidence; synchronize body and voice to create trust and chemistry; keep enthusiasm high; even how to cast a wide social net and dress for a first meeting.

Step three is about accelerating the kind of intimacy that leads to love, by finding "Me too!" triggers and mastering the art of incidental touch. You'll learn to tap into key emotions through low-, medium-, and high-risk disclosures and how to intensify the nonverbal signals that turn sparks into a flame. All the while you'll establish a solid romantic foundation to convert this magic 90 minutes into a lifetime of love and commitment.

    This book is much better than i expected. It begins presenting ways to improve general socials skills. And this is a VERY good thing, considering that too many people get lost in translation. And this is not so amusing when you travel a lot in different countries and sometimes you need to do your best in a short conversation.
    Since my marriage is going down the hill for some time now, I started looking for some books to give some ideas about what to do. I wasn't sure exactly what to expect from this book, and I wasn't sure if there is anything useful inside. But now I think is worth the money and the time.
    When you arrive to the parts that really talk about flirting ... then you're in for a good laugh. But I still think this is one of the best books about flirting. For young and not so young people (who may be a little out of practice). You can find some really good ideas to use with good results.

    This book provides the reader with good advise and steps on how to learn and utilize the information contained within it. Some of the examples provided are a bit cheesy and unrealistic but the themes themselves are good. The book does not describe what is to happen after those first 90 minutes, which is disappointing, but perhaps that was not the point of the book. This book will not help you maintain and develop and already initiated relationship- it is mostly about meeting people and beginning one.

    I felt awful a buying a book with this title. I did purchase it because it has been recommended to me and because of the good reviews. I thought, jeez, I am not desperate. I am not a fool to believe that any man can fall in love with me in 90 minutes. Indeed, it is a bad title, for a great book that you read easily and with gusto.

    I always love date and relationship books for women written by men, because, well, they know their stuff first hand. Moreover, they usually cut the crap that other books for single ladies give. This is also the case of the author here, who makes a great job at giving advice, reasons for the advice, and offering tips and techniques to practice what he preaches.

    The concept of matched opposite is truly helpful, and makes complete sense, even though many women find themselves pursuing men who are like them, a version of themselves, not the best man for them.

    The fact that the author was a fashion photographer in the past, really shows, as his advice on how to dress and present yourself is really good. Nothing really new, or wow, but still you know it comes from a professional.

    The book has given me many tips to go and practice next time I see any guy that catches my eye, things that I usually oversee or forget to do, not realising how important they are to get the attention of any man, beyond the looks. I have been practising his advice of looking at the colour of somebody's eyes to learn how to make eye contact, and it really works. There are many tips you can put into practice.

    One of those books that you go back to check for advice over and over again.

    This book is well written and fun to read. It has great insight on how to discover more about yourself and what you are looking for. It discusses more about how to find someone who is compatible with you and when you do find that person, the best way not to screw up the encounter. It is NOT a book on how to date as many people as you can and have sex with them. It is geared towards finding that one special person most of us are looking for and building a long lasting relationship with them.

    I would never have bought the book on the title alone because the title means something completely different to me. So I think it is a bad title.

    I would recommend this book to someone looking for additional insight in the dating field and finding true love.

    I loved this book! I was not keen on the title but I like the writers background and expertise and there were few books in the same realm. The book gave me many new perspectives relative to dating, was I really looking for a partner and if so what type of person would be a good fit. I have yet to master some of the techniques but I am working on them. I enjoyed the book so much I have given 3 away as gifts. Who says the title sells....

    This is the type of text, just the way I like it. Philosophical, scientific, interactive, and it drops many bits of wisdom for the reader. Many conversation examples are included in this book.

    I can already tell this is an awesome book. If you REALLY truly want to successfully engage in conversation with many people, than you'd better buy this book and add it to your library. You sure won't regret it.

    Someone told me this was an interesting read that provided good insights into human relations. Most of the crap in this book is so obvious I'm stunned that someone would think to write it down. The target audience for this book is likely not me. The title is misleading.

    Ich habe an diesem Buch gefallen gefunden. Nach dem aus meiner 25 Jährigen beziehung fühlte ich mich total verloren, vor allem, was die neuen Arten des Kennenlernens betrifft. Ich bin zwar noch nicht so weit das Gelesene in Taten umzusetzen, werde es aber in ein paar Monaten wiederlesen. Es hat mir vor allem jetzt den Horizont geöffnet und Mut gegeben.
