ABOUT THE BOOK
Whether you’re single, dating, or in a long-term relationship, most people were never taught how to actually build a healthy, lasting partnership. So they default to patterns—choosing based on chemistry, overlooking compatibility, or slowly watching connection fade over time.
In UNSINGLE: How to Date Smarter and Create Love That Lasts, Amy Chan reframes modern love as something far more learnable than we’ve been led to believe.
At the core of the book is her signature Dating Funnel—a framework that breaks down every stage of a relationship, from first attraction to long-term partnership. It helps you identify exactly where things tend to go off track—whether that’s getting stuck in the early stages of dating, investing in the wrong people, or struggling to maintain connection and desire once you’re in a relationship.
This is not just a book about finding love. It’s about understanding how love actually works.
Inside, you’ll learn:
Why you’re drawn to certain people—and how to make more intentional choices
The difference between chemistry that feels intense and compatibility that lasts
How to move from ambiguity to clarity in dating
Research-backed ways to sustain desire, emotional connection, and intimacy over time
Blending behavioral science, psychology, and real-world case studies, UNSINGLE offers practical tools for every stage of love—not just getting into a relationship, but keeping it alive.
