It advises men on how to look like they’re listening, even when they’re not - if caught not paying attention just say, “You’re so pretty, I’m distracted”.

Men should call when they say they will - because women have learned that men who don’t call when they say they will are not into them. And because women like to talk, men should be prepared to listen.

Some teaser tips:
• Look interested in what she is saying at all times. If your mind is on tomorrow’s match or the cute waitress that’s just passed your table, whatever you do, don’t let her know.
• Arrange the muscles in your forehead into a tight frown of concentration.
• If you are dining out, bring your manners. Don’t eat off her plate or pick your teeth.
• Burping is completely unacceptable. Be generous - especially on those first few outings.
• Don’t, whatever you do, buy into the notion that giving slutty underwear to your girlfriend is romantic. Most girls think it’s pervy.

• Avoid telephone conversations concerning delicate issues. Any guy who has shared a house with a female, be it a mother, sister or girlfriend, will know that girls can stay on the phone for days on end.
• If you have something important to talk about, do it face to face.
• Refrain from swearing.
• Wash.
• Zip it, when it comes to her bad driving habits.
• Don’t arrange to meet her inside the cinema.
• Don’t break wind in confined spaces.
• And never, ever, repeat what she has just told you in complete confidence.
