Why Men Love Bitches, by Sherry Argov 278 pages.


I'm way too nice when it comes to relationships so when I heard about this book from a friend I was interested right away. I really like this book, I think it is a great read and although brilliant in it’s’ scope covers its subject in language that is easy to understand. It comes in handy! I realize that orchestrating a healthy, happy, and honest relationship between two people takes work. This book has changed my life for the better; I will never go back to my old views. I now place a much higher value on myself.
I enjoyed reading this book because it's full of tips, tricks and ways to a healthy working relationship. I discovered the value of self esteem, and not being a doormat. The author explains ways to deal with the easiest situations in a relationship, especially the most common ones. She writes about ways to keep the boy attracted and interested and how to play it safe when it comes to getting serious. After reading it, I have learned ways to prevent being a push over. I understand ways on how to seem not so needy and to get him to understand that I choose to be with him, I don’t actually need to be. There is a big difference between choosing, which is proactive and needing, which is desperation. I will never again be the latter.
I would definitely recommend this book to another girl, I already have told some friends about it and they've purchased it. Four Stars! I hope I am not being didactic; I just want every girl who has wondered what is wrong with her in every relationship hat ended badly to read this book and free her from the female blame game! It's extremely helpful in erasing negativity and raising self awareness and self esteem,
You can find a specific issue you're dealing with and it'll have a chapter on it. Being in dyads can be confusing. Thankfully, It's full of "he says" "she says" or "he says" he thinks" so you know exactly how to keep up in the game of love. There were tons of great tips and quotes in this book. Extremely helpful were little tests here and there to see how badly you need the advice or a change from being a doormat. The quotes caught your eye. My favorite one was "He'll let a woman who becomes his doormat pay for dinner on the first couple of dates, but he wouldn’t think of it with his dreamgirl." This quote to me means basically he knows you're not the one, and you're wasting his time as well as yours but he might as well get the best of it, and of you, while he can.
What the entire book says not to do, I do. By reading this I have changed my whole perspective on dating and how to treat and how to be treated. It has helped me develop skills and sneaky secret ways into men’s brain and heart. Actually after reading this, I've been called back and asked out on dates. Yes, just by following simple advice I’m getting lucky! If you're being pushed around and having no luck with getting or keeping a relationship this book is for you, no doubt. You will not be disappointed. It makes you self empowered and can even build your self esteem and confidence to win a man’s heart. This isn’t a textbook requiring rote memorization; it is one that will carry you into your inner self easily and enjoyably. Enjoy the journey, and remember true actualization for you feminine soul waits
