From DTF to WTF: Rewriting Your Love Life
About this ebook
Thought “maybe they’ll change” while sobbing into a Chipotle bowl
Googled “how to stop catching feelings for people who give zero effort”
Stayed in a situationship out of optimism, boredom, or sheer delusion
Gotten emotionally attached to someone who said “I’m bad at communication” like it was a cute quirk
Welcome to From DTF to WTF—your chaotic, hilarious, and occasionally profound roadmap out of romantic nonsense and back to your damn self.
In these pages, Quentin Shires delivers the kind of relationship advice you actually want: messy, honest, unfiltered, and funny enough to make you laugh through the healing. It’s part breakup survival guide, part pep talk from your emotionally evolved alter ego, and part “holy sh*t, did they bug my phone?” because yeah—it’s that relatable.
You’ll learn:
- How to leave a date before dessert without faking a bathroom emergency
- Why your last 3 love interests were just emotional escape rooms
- How to tell the difference between chemistry and anxiety (spoiler: one feels like butterflies, the other feels like a crime scene)
- The beauty of staying single on purpose—even if your aunt keeps asking about grandkids
How to actually fall in love (with them and with yourself) without spiraling into oblivion
This isn’t about finding “the one.” This is about becoming the version of you who no longer chases emotionally unavailable disasters because they have a decent jawline and know three astrology signs.
You don’t need closure. You need this book.
And maybe a snack. Healing is exhausting.
About the author
Quentin Shires is a doctoral-level mental health clinician with over 15 years of experience working with individuals, couples, and families on all things love, communication, commitment, and what happens when those things go hilariously wrong. His clinical work has focused on helping people navigate the complex realities of dating, relationships, marriage, heartbreak, and family dynamics—with a specialty in turning “emotionally unavailable” from a type into a teachable moment.
With a deep understanding of human behavior and an uncanny ability to spot a red flag from a mile away (even when it’s dressed as a green one and quoting Brené Brown), Quentin is known for combining therapeutic insight with practical, down-to-earth support. His approach is honest, affirming, and occasionally sprinkled with sarcasm—because sometimes the only thing more healing than a breakthrough is laughing at how long you stayed in that situationship.
When he’s not helping others sort through their emotional chaos, he’s probably drinking too much coffee, avoiding group texts, or giving unsolicited relationship advice to reality TV contestants. Professionally, of course.
