Too many women fall in love not with the man across the table from them, but the man they imagine he can be or will be, or would be if they could get their hands on them. I've seen it a million times and so have you. My favorite line from this book is "You can't love him into a real relationship" and it's absolutely true. How many times have we watched our friend bend over backwards to be the perfect girlfriend for a guy who is just using her for sex, and then had her cry on our shoulder after he grew bored and moved on? Rather than our comforting shoulder, what they really needed was this book.I love this book. I wish I had a copy to hand every girl friend I've ever had, before they went off and made every single mistake outlined in it. Most women flat out do not understand men or how they think, and some even seem proud of that fact, touting catch phrases like women are from Venus and men are from Uranus or some such silliness. The truth is that most men aren't jerks, they just work out of a different playbook and until you understand that you'll never understand why your relationships always seem to fail.If your relationships flounder or go nowhere, if you feel like you give everything and get nothing in return, or if you just can't figure out what you're doing wrong, get this book. Read it, take notes if you have to, but above all believe it. It's comforting to run to your girlfriends and down a few pitchers of margaritas while loudly proclaiming all men to be dogs, but if you're ready to set the blame game aside and level the playing field once and for all, then this book will show you how.
