Ryan tells the Editor that Cindy is ill and will write her advice column from home. After he shows that he's less sensitive than Cindy in his advice, he takes advice from people and does research. The attraction grows between the Editor (sorry I've forgotten her name) and Ryan but, as he's technically seeing Cindy still, she feels guilty about it. After we get over the initial setup, the film feels much like What Women Want. In some ways the film is more serious (especially when it comes to dealing with sensitive issues) but it is, also, a lot sillier in other places. The start of the film, especially the idea that the Editor in question would hire anybody like Cindy as an advice columnist, does stretch creditibility, but it's quite good once it gets going.

Ryan is a womanising stock broker who's not above a little insider trading. A business deal goes wrong and he falls back on his girlfriend. Cindy is a ditzy advice columnist who probably was a beauty school dropout. Cindy's no-nonsense boss was about to fire her and Cindy gets tired of Ryan cluttering up the place and heads off to Brazil.
