Book Reviews of Why Men Marry Bitches: A Woman's Guide to Winning Her Man's Heart
Book Review: Excellent helpful book!!!!!.....
Summary: 5 Stars
I read "Are you the one for me by Barbara Angelis" first and pretty much followed the rules/advice she had given out from the book especially when she said "give the guy an ultimatum" and be upfront and ask the guy on where you stand....WRONG!!!!!...I pushed him away....I shouldn't have done it. I didn't work. No wonder when I first met this guy and told him that I didn't want to be in a relationship...he stayed, everthing was fine, and we ended up being bf and gf. Like Sherry said on her book, "NO PRESSURE! and you gave your guy the power and made him make the decision himself". Guy needs to feel powerful and makes them feel that he won you over". My mistake was when our relationship started to get a little rocky ...I read "Are you the one for me" thinking it might help our relationship but I ended up pushing him away and eventually lost him completely.
I think Sherry Argiv's advice in this book is very straight forward and more realistic. But also this book is more of how to reverse psychology a man. It's true when she says that human nature, people tends to want things that they know they cannot have. And this is true for most people. Analyzing my relationship, all of the author said on this book are true. I wish I could have found this book before, I would have probably saved my relationship and be with the guy I'm really inlove with. Too bad, now it's too late. Hmmm...maybe it's just not meant to be. Things happens for a reason. But hey...I can use all her advice to my future relationship.
This book is HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! TWO THUMBS UP! This is a must read for all the woman out there.
Book Review: Why Men Love Bitches: My Final Project
Summary: 4 Stars
My name is Stephanie Morales and I am a sophomore Sociology major at Loyola Marymount University. I am writing this review as my final project for my communications class titled, Interpersonal Communication. What we had to do to was choose any book we wanted, involving some sort of interpersonal communication and write a review about it. Therefore what better a book then, "Why Men Marry Bitches." I had previously read "Why Men Love Bitches," and thoroughly enjoyed it and put it into action. After reading that book I was able to find myself a "keeper." So I decided to read, "Why Men Marry Bitches," to learn how to keep him there when the flame starts to go out and things start getting old. What I thoroughly enjoyed about this book is that it speaks nothing but the truth. There is no beating around the bush; it is straightforward and completely blunt about what the do's and don'ts are in a relationship. Not only does it give great advice about relationships but it is almost a self-improvement book. It helps you realize your great attributes and helps you love yourself. In regards to my communication class, it directly coincides with the relationship factor of communication. It shows you what type of language to use and words when in a relationship. The only complaint I would have about this book is that though it is helpful at times it can be impractical. It is very difficult to just change and this book acts as though it isn't. It can give impractical advice, such as being sexy in a snap. I know and I am sure other women know sexiness does not come. However, what I did find the most valuable was on page 13 and the title was, "Don't believe what anyone tells you about yourself." Which for me is very important, because it helped me realize that beauty is what I make. That not only applies to relationships but life in general. So if someone were to ask me, do I recommend this book, I would say of course. Any woman, strong-willed or passive, will gain some sort of knowledge. If any man rolls his eyes while reading the title, I am sure the best and most confident woman he's ever had, has read this book!Book Review: Utter misunderstanding of men
Summary: 2 Stars
I picked this book up from my female housemate's bookshelf and started reading through it. I was appalled at what I found. The author repeatedly gives anecdotes from men, then proceeds to break the anecdotes down and explain them. Her explanations and extrapolations, however, are utterly wrong. They DO NOT reflect how men think in the least.
I was quite disgusted at the uselessly false impression of men that this book gives. Ultimately, the equivalent would be a book for men which explains that women are simple-minded and obsessed with flowers. Does that reflect you? No? Then probably you don't want to read a book that says the equivalent about men.
This book may have some good advice about women, for women, but take everything it says about the male thought process with a grain of salt.
Book Review: I couldn't put it down.
Summary: 5 Stars
I was recently dumped for pretty much being the "nice girl" mentioned in this book. This book is awesome. It changed my thinking on how I interact with the opposite sex. I'm really not big on self-help books but I've already read it twice and have sections highlighted.Book Review: The LOL Funniest Relationship Book You Will Ever Read
Summary: 5 Stars
OK, "He's Just Not That Into You" runs a close second for relationship books that will make you LOL.
Sherry Argov is a witty, wiley sage. Listen and learn.
This book almost backfired on me because I tried the break up with the guy to make him commit to marriage way sooner than appropriate. So be careful of that.
Having said that, I have reaped so many positives from this book. For example: How to talk to a man when there is a problem--calmly and briefly.
How to respond when you're jealous of another woman--laughing it off is good.
What to say when he comes home at 4am drunk--you can't say anything, cause you're not home!
Just again, be careful. This book is a weapon, not a toy, so be kind to your man--if you use these strategies just to have power over him it will backfire. This is an excellent book in order to keep things balanced. Use it for balance of power; wisely, Grasshopper.
