OutsideMatchInside 10,166 Posted February 10, 2016 I wouldn't take dating advice from a man that cheated on his last wife with his current wife. I read the book out of curiosity and it might work if you are over 50 and don't use the Internet or date men that use the Internet but other than that it is really outdated. The only thing worth taking from the book is that women need to know their value, but you can learn that anywhere and hopefully have learned it by high school.

GibbsGirl 483 Posted February 11, 2016 I actually liked both books and the points he makes regarding the cookie and men who are just playing. If a man has not found his direction, he is not going to settle down. I also like Dr. Laura. Are there any other books or people you guys like for dating advice?

4MRB4PHOTO 3,900 Posted February 11, 2016 I would be careful of his advice based upon his "Miss Universe" winner announcement. S.H. (that's Steve Harvey): "You need to Act Like a Man, Think Like a Lady, I mean, Act Like a Lady, Think Like a Man, sorry I read the manuscript wrong". Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
isajck 229 Posted February 20, 2016 Thanks for saying this. Someone with his personal history can never preach to me concerning relationships. Cannot believe so many have fallen for his BS. Steve is nothing more than a snake oil salesman selling basic common sense to people. There is nothing new or insightful in what he is spewing.

OutsideMatchInside 10,166 Posted February 20, 2016 It amazes me that he has so many female fans considering how he treated his ex wife. He should be tarred and feathered. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CowgirlJane 14,260 Posted March 3, 2016 http://BariatricPal.com/index.php?/topic/361237-Ok,-bit-the-bullet-and-ordered-the-book A discussion on that very book. I am over 50 and while I think some points are good, the basic premise that I want a husband and every man out there just wants a sex only relationship is flawed on both ends of the equation. I actually think things in there seem more relevant to younger people who seek to marry and raise kids. Sent from my KFJWI using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
