THE BOOK

Cover of Dating Is a Liability, 2026 edition

A system, not a fairy tale

Dating can be fun. It can also eat your time, peace, focus, money, and three business days of group-chat analysis after one confusing dinner.

Twenty-two chapters, three worked case files, a thirty-day reset, and a fourteen-part action workbook you can actually fill in. Scorecards for what a situation costs you. Scripts short enough to keep your dignity. A fifteen-minute weekly review that replaces the four-hour forensic investigation of one text message.

THE THEME SONG

LIQUID
DATINGIS · 2026

Liquid means you can walk

The book's theme song. Liquidity is the whole argument in one word: an asset you can move, a position you can exit, a life that stays easy to unwind until trust has had time to become boring.

QUESTIONS

Common questions

What is Dating Is a Liability about?

It treats a dating situation the way a CFO treats a position. You score what it costs you on the Liability Index, score the evidence he has actually shown on the Suitor Asset Score, grant access in layers based on behavior rather than chemistry, and review once a week instead of ruminating daily.

What is the Liability Index?

A five-category score out of fifteen covering time cost, emotional cost, money cost, safety and reputation risk, and opportunity cost. Each category is scored zero to three, so a feeling becomes a number you can compare week to week.

What is the Suitor Asset Score?

A six-dimension score out of thirty covering initiative, consistency, generosity, capacity, respect, and peace. It grades demonstrated behavior rather than potential, charm, or stated intentions.

What is The Sunday Review?

The membership that runs the book’s system for you. You score each suitor, log one ledger line a week, and it writes your Situationship Annual Report each quarter from your own entries. $79 a year, cancel anytime. Book buyers open it with the code in the back matter.

Is this book about getting money from men?

No. It is about stopping the subsidy of someone else’s inconsistency with your time and peace. The financial vocabulary is a satirical decision-making metaphor. Any gift or support discussed is voluntary and must never be exchanged for sex, intimacy, silence, or access.

What is the song Liquid?

The theme song of the book. Liquidity is the central argument in one word: an asset you can move, a position you can exit, a life that stays easy to unwind until trust has had time to become boring.

“Do not date the promise. Date the pattern.”
