Where Have All the Good Men Gone?: A Memoir of Modern Dating, Ghosting, and the Search for Something Real - Couverture souple
Synopsis
This is not a dating advice book.
It’s not a self-help manifesto.
And it’s definitely not a guide on how to be “less intense.”
This is a book about what happens when you stop betraying yourself just to be chosen.
Written by a neurodivergent woman navigating midlife dating, illness, divorce, grief, and modern dating culture, this book is a brutally honest examination of what love actually costs — and what it shouldn’t.
Through essays, chapters, and interludes, Marcie U Tomb explores:
Why endurance gets mistaken for love
How emotional labor quietly drains you before you ever realize it
What illness, neurodivergence, and trauma reveal about character
Why chemistry isn’t a compass
How clarity gets mislabeled as aggression
Why “starting over” is a myth — and integration is the real work
What peace costs, and why it’s still worth paying for
This book doesn’t offer dating hacks or quick fixes. Instead, it names the patterns many people — especially women and neurodivergent people — are taught to normalize: confusion, inconsistency, emotional labor, self-erasure, and being told to “just be chill.”
It’s for anyone who:
Has stayed longer than they should have
Has been called “too much” for being clear
Has confused intensity with intimacy
Has done the work and is still asking, why is this so hard?
Is tired of pretending modern dating dysfunction is normal
This is a book about boundaries, accountability, and self-trust.
About learning the difference between being needed and being loved.
About choosing peace — even when it costs you noise, familiarity, and access.
You won’t finish this book with a checklist.
You’ll finish it with language for things you’ve felt but couldn’t name.
And once you can name them, you don’t unsee them.
