it works if you try it dont say it doesn't if you dont try it February 21, 2010 Nancy (Santa Ana, CA United States) All I have to say is that is works. It's hard and you have to try it if you are not willing to try it and just assume and say it doesn't without giving it a try then why bother buying it. The book itself says it..READ it and you will know.
after 15 years of being married it was about to end, I found this book more like a guide and discovered what i was doing wrong, I love it and im so greatful to have found it. I love my husband and he loves me too, and it has worked wonders.. you have to try..
Great! March 23, 2009 H. Sykes 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
THis is a really interesting book. It makes you laugh but it also makes you think about the way you treat your mate.
Views relationships animalistically January 19, 2009 L. nielsen (los angleles, ca) 0 out of 2 found this review helpful
this woman has only a B.A. in psychology and views men as animals that have to be satisfied on every whim. she states that if you do not keep your man happy, he will leave you.
This will work to a degree August 20, 2008 Carmen T. Ward (Los Angeles, CA) This book was recommended to me by another woman, who told me it was much easier to digest than "The Rules," etc. It is also a rather quick read and easy to digest. However, some of the suggestions are so far out there that there is no way in hell I could possibly follow them.
As I said, there are many good tidbits in this book, especially the parts on being honest and sharing your feelings (emotions just are; they are neither right or wrong). But certain other suggestions, such as the good old getting your man home at noon for sex, are simply unrealistic and will not work with every guy. This book seems to almost suggest that all men react the same/value the same type of stimuli. I can attest to the fact that this is NOT the case. It also seems to rely on the fact that most men are primarily sexual creatures and will therefore respond to sexual advances much faster than to anything else. Again, this is not necessarily true.
I also had a bit of a hard time with, what I perceived, the overall concept of the book, which is the good old "make the man the king." I found the idea to consistently going out of my way to make him happy, while he "waits to be served" very hard to digest. But then again, maybe I just misunderstood it.
The important part is that there truly are some pieces of information in the book that can be used and should be used to communicate how one feels about another. For myself though, I simply do not like the idea of playing games, or pretending to be someone I am not. Sure, there are times in a relationship where one should try new things and be open. However, the suggestion to go against one's grain to do things for him that are embarrassing, humiliating, or plainly highly uncomfortable, is not my idea of achieving a happy relationship, nor do I see how it would serve the guy if his woman is all tense and uptight.
Not all it could be. June 5, 2008 Kelly (Houston,Tx) 1 out of 2 found this review helpful
I purchased this book and the Light His Fire book (which my husband wouldn't read) to strengthen my marriage. It seems at times that the author is obsessed with sex because thats all the books pertain to, is strengthening that aspect of a marriage. My marital problems are spouse immaturity, running away, and screaming at each other. I don't think that this book covered those things at all and it was just a waste of my 8 bucks.
