Review: I wish I had this book when I was growing up. - Best book on relationships that I ever read! I was boy crazy growing up, and I was always pestering my mom: "How do you get a boy to notice you?" "How can you tell when he's in love?" "How can I catch him?" Mom never knew what to tell me. I read lots of books looking for answers. As I grew up, I tried hard to be everything that a man wanted so they would fall in love with me, but they were just happy for the freebies - they didn't want to commit. After many broken hearts, I found Mr. Right and we are happily married. My stepmother read this book and told me to read it. I said I didn't need to because I was already happily married. She said every woman should read it and she already gave a copy to my adult, single daughter. To make my stepmom happy, I said I would read the book, and I approached it like a homework assignment. I found out it was the BEST book I ever read on men! It answered all those questions that I pestered my mom about when I was growing up. Other books I read about men were writing by therapists or relationship experts, and they covered things like how to trick a man in to loving you, or how to tell the difference between bipolar or narcissistic men. This book is written by a manly man who just tells you the truth about what is going on in a man's mind. Just like we know that a dog likes to chase a ball, and a cat likes to chase string, he tells us what is driving a man. The author is a comedian with a radio show, and he kept getting calls from women who were confused about relationships and the men in their lives. The premise is like this: there are two kinds of men: those worth keeping, and those not worth keeping. Then he tells you how to tell them apart. It's not about how to turn YOUR man into a keeper, it's how to sort them out from the get-go. It does not matter if he is narcissistic or bi-polar: if he's psyco - dump him. First he covers what is going on inside of a man in general. What drives them in life, what they are basically looking for in a woman (like support and loyalty), and what they don't want in a woman. These are not cultural desires, but primal desires. Then he discusses what men REALLY want and, duh, they want sex. It becomes a game of sex with no strings attached vs. sex with strings attached, and he tells you how to win it. If you let him know that he can treat you like a toy, he WILL treat you like a toy, and leave you broken when he's tired of playing with you. If you let him know that you are more valuable than that, he will either leave (good riddance!), or he will pay the price that YOU set: which is respect and responsible involvement in your life. He tells you what are the five magic questions to ask a man that will reveal to you if is worth your time or not. These are easy questions that can be asked early on. He also tells you how long to hold out and why. This takes the ball out of his court and puts in back in your court. A worthy man will stay in the game. The last chapter is the best: How to get the ring and tie the knot. I had a girlfriend who was strung along for 15 years. He kept telling her, "We don't need to get married, it's `just like' being married and I will take care of you no matter what". He had millions of dollars and she quit her job for him. In the end, he took her for granted, treated her like crap, and she finally left. (I never did like him or trust him, but she was too busy trying to be "good enough" for him, while he continued to use her.) When she left, he did not give her a PENNY. She was destitute and broken-hearted (and flabbergasted that he lied to her about taking care of her no matter what). I can see that this chapter could have prevented this whole mess. This chapter could have also saved me years of grief too with guys who strung me along with empty promises and treated me like an option, while I tried with all my might to be perfect enough for them to marry me. What a racket. This book tells you how to cut through all of this and make him either cough it up, or you can see that you've been played long enough and dump him. As I read the book, I would read excerpts to my husband, who is a responsible, helpful man. (I just lucked out in finding him.) He says, "That book is right! And we need to get some more of these books and give them to all the young women in our families". So clear your shelves and get this book. Put it on a pedestal and shine a light on it. Stop wasting your time and letting the man decide whether to keep you or throw you back. Take charge and YOU do the keeping or throwing back.
Review: Must read - **Book Review: Act Like A Lady, Think Like A Man by Steve Harvey** Having just read "Act Like A Lady, Think Like A Man" for the second time, I am continually impressed by the wealth of relationship advice it offers. Steve Harvey brings a unique perspective to the table, drawing from his own experiences and the lessons he's learned as a father of daughters. His insights resonate deeply, encouraging women to understand the male mindset and navigate the complexities of romantic relationships with confidence. Despite some potential pushback from both genders, the practical advice presented is grounded in a sincere desire to help women avoid the pitfalls of unhealthy relationships. One of the standout elements of Harvey's approach is his emphasis on self-awareness and empowerment. He urges women to embrace their worth and set high standards for their partners. This message is particularly valuable in a world where societal pressures can lead to compromising one’s values for the sake of a relationship. I appreciate Harvey’s straightforwardness; his candid discussions about dating and love resonate with anyone who has felt the confusion and frustration of navigating modern romance. It’s refreshing to see someone tackle these topics with both humor and honesty. Ultimately, "Act Like A Lady, Think Like A Man" serves as a guide for recognizing when to invest in a relationship and when to walk away. Harvey's lessons on timing—knowing when to hold on and when to let go—are particularly poignant. His advice is not just theoretical; it’s a call to action for anyone tired of wasting time on the wrong person. I am grateful for the clarity and wisdom he provides, making this book a valuable resource for anyone looking to foster meaningful connections. Thank you, Steve Harvey, for your insightful take on relationships; it’s a book I will continue to revisit as I navigate my own romantic journey.
