Summary: Very Funny Book
Review: but it will definitely have you laughing about it!

There are a few tidbits of insight here, but
mostly what makes this good is its
entertainment value because of the
comedic talents of the authors.

If you really want to learn something
of value to your personal life and
intimate success,
try the DVD "NEW SEX NOW"
or the video "GODDESS WORSHIP"
or the book "Sex and the Perfect Lover" by Mabel Iam

Summary: Ever "single" female should read this book!!!!!
Review: I am 43 years old and trying to figure out how to go about the dating scene. I meant my husband at 23 and we spent 20 years together and even through it wasn't always perfect and didn't end well, I knew he understood me and wanted the best for me. Now being single again and trying to figure how to date, this book is a language guide for me. I wouldn't go to France without a Langurage guide, why would I attempt dating without one. I am going to buy and send this book to every single female I know from 18 - 81. It's clear, it's easy and I have faith that it is true. Wow thank you so much Greg Behrendt for writing this book it's clear, very very clear. Women we hear it every day from male co-workers, male family members and male friends, we look for too much in stuff and make excuses to settle for less when our own gut tells us "I know your lonely, but run, run as far and fast as you can from this guy". He's not the jerk we are.

Summary: So obvious!
Review: I honestly can't believe someone is making money simply by telling us women what we already know. As I was reading the book, I realized that I had used these same excuses and forced myself to believe in them when I knew they were crap. I really love this book and the blunt way the author puts it all out there.

Some women have said this book doesn't say anything about women having casual sex so it is bad. Well, this isn't for women who are knowingly in a casual sex relationship. This is for women who mistake their casual sex, or lack thereof, for a relationship.

Summary: Love it, Read it, learn something about yourself...
Review: I read the other reviews and it's interesting to me the way some of us critique the truth. By no means does this book state married people are better. I myself am going through a single period where I am constantly analyzing what I do and say to prospective people. Given that the prospects are far and few between...I get too excited and then regret my phone calls. I am convinced by friends someone likes me before I even realize it...sad. I began reading and thought; wow, this is so harsh. Then I thought, this is insane and I hate this book. I hate this book because it's true. I am a strong willed person, intellectual and well read in some circles. I am everyone's rock but my own. I hand out the advice this book is giving and it was a slap in the face to me. How could I let myself get this caught up in one person? Read this book for the harsh truth. If nothing else this book will make you notice how silly the "chirping" about why he hasn't called and does he really like me, you and your friends carry on about. My mother bought me this book and it is the best thing she ever got me.

Summary: Wish I'd Read This - and Believed It - 20 Years Ago
Review: I would have given five stars, but some language in the book (not a lot, but some) is offensive. It's really not necessary to use epithets and obscenities - it still would have been a good book; better even. Nevertheless . . .

["When men want you, they do the work."] How difficult it is to come to grips with this concept. You find a guy (after a whole lot of work and effort) and then you keep working to make the relationship work. Years later, you finally admit that you're the one putting out all the effort. You've planned all the vacations and dates, you've had to ask for all your needs and wants, everything else comes before you (work, kids, school, whatever). Then, when you quit doing all the work, he walks out because he thinks you're being crazy and unreasonable. Never mind that you have legitimate issues - it's still all your fault.

Ladies, if the one you love and think you want to spend your life with won't hold your hand in public and admit to friends and family that you're together, "he's just not that into you". If he says he's emotionally damaged because of his parents' divorce or a previous relationship, "he's just not that into you". If he's good to you in private but treats you poorly in public, "he's just not that into you". If he only does special things for you when you complain, "he's just not that into you". If he can't be bothered to do daily, consistent thoughtful acts for you (while you're doing his daily laundry, ironing, shopping, cooking . . .), "he's just not that into you." If he asks you to marry him in an off-hand fashion (Sitting in front of the t.v. - "So, ya wanna get married?") because he can treat it as a joke if you say no, "he's just not that into you".

You have to believe that you're worth more. ["Have faith. What other choice is there?"] You have to have faith that there's someone out there who really wants you and knows how to show it - every day. ["Does he make it clear in his actions every day that your happiness is important to him?"] Settling just isn't worth it ["It's very tempting when you really want to be with someone to settle for much, much less than you would have ever imagined."] and he's never going to change. ["Most men do not change, and the ones I've seen change only changed when they met new women."]

Read the book - believe it - and then follow its advice. ["My only job is to be as happy as I can be about my life, and feel as good as I can about myself, and to lead as full and eventful a life as I can, so that it doesn't ever feel like I'm just waiting around for some guy to ask me out."] ["Realize that they simply don't like to do the things you find absolutely essential to your enjoyment of life, and then go find yourself someone who does."]

Summary: I think this is gonna be a gift for some girls I know :)
Review: The number of times I have felt the need to bang my head against the wall while listening to one of my girlfriends lament that she "can't understand" this guy she likes are uncountable. Women have conditioned themselves to make excuses for guys and fall over themselves to make themselves "better" for their perceived love interest. It's nice to see a book that says, don't bother. Behrendt is refreshing and honest (isn't that how we want our men to be?) and explains that not only are some guys not interested, but it doesn't matter because if you stop fretting over the ones that aren't you'll find the one who is. Now instead of having to try to shake some sense into my friends, I can hand them this book and say "don't talk to me about your problems with so-and-so until you finish reading this." Of course, then if that doesn't work, I could throw the book at them and KNOCK some sense into them...

Summary: The truth is, i'm just not buying this!
Review: This book is condescending to anyone in a relationship! If a guy doesn't call or something don't give up on him! I mean, sure if there is nothing there you shouldn't dwell on what might have been!

But this book is hypocritical. I think if everyone read this book and takes the advice than your relationship will be over like that! No relationship will be perfect- so don't expect it to be... The author implys that all men will chase after the girl of there affection. In most cases this isn't true, so he can speak for himself, not for all of his race! There has to be some reaction/interaction/flirting from the girl.

Why give up so easy? Why not put any effort into your relationship?

If you get this book don't take it seriously. Just laugh, like I did!

I'm not in a denial, but I know that guys can be shy and that this book is chock-full of insults and elementary biased opinions, based on one guy who thought he ruled the world.

This guy must have a ego completely born out of proportion to think that his ignorant opinion represents millions out there.

I don't even understand some of the context of this book.
This book is so frustrating I think I will burn it! Please join me...

The only reason I can explain the publication of this book is propaganda for money. I can't think of any other legitimite reason for this nightmare to be published!

Summary: This is the truth
Review: This book is true and funny. The book uncovers what a guy is REALLY thinking about you. If he is not calling you, get on with your life and find a guy who will. This book is the start to finding your guy. The book, How to Date Your Wife by Stan Cronin covers what to do after you find him. If he is "into you" you are soon going to need the other book.

Rating:
Summary: I highly recommend
Review: This book is very good!! Not to mention the lives of so many other women who have clung to people who are clearly not into them. For some women, leaving a bad relationship might be be obvious, but it isn't to everyone out there hence the reason why not all couples are happy. Also I believe that by the authors refering to the women readers as sexy and so on (even if you disbelieve that you are) has nothing to do with if you are or not.
Funny I love all of these scenarios and examples that the authors refering.. woowww This is a great book! I also highly recommend Sex and the perfect lover by Mabel Iam.

Summary: It Takes Two
Review: This book was a waste of money. Most of the material revealed in this book was obvious. In addition, this book focuses a lot on what men do inorder to decide whether or not a guy is into a particular women. But it takes two people to make a relationship of any kind work. I am not defending men and their ways. But ladies, if you don't do your part, no matter how much a guy is into you, he is not going to show it or waste his time. I have asked some of my male friends about stuff revealed in this book and they say that it is somewhat true. But they also say it depends on what the lady does that makes them act the way they act. I don't know what group of people were surveyed for this book, but some of the letters to Greg seemed stupid. Who would really write letter like those. As far a comedy, the book was not even really entertaining.
