Ars Amatoria

by Ovid

Ovid's Ars Amatoria is a three‑book instructional elegy composed in 2 AD that outlines basic relationship techniques for men and women. The first volume teaches men how to locate a woman, the second explains how to maintain a relationship, and the third, released two years later, offers women guidance on securing and sustaining a man's affection.
