For those of you that liked the book but think we still need to be ourselves I have news for you ladies - MEN WANT A BITCH! I am a professional and have done really well professionaly however I always got taken advantage of in the love department. Recently I started dating my sisters friend that had been salivating over me for years because he thought I was smart, independent and a strong woman. However as soon as we started dating and I started doing things for him and being NICE and affectionate he took 10 steps back and started ignoring me and I being a woman that thought I was treating him right started to get emotional so he pushed further away. My point is I was catering to him because that is what most women do when they like someone, we are nurturers and we think doing things for them will impress them but he pushed away and now it is getting to the point that he doesn't even call and say he can't meet me, he just doesn't show up so since I demand respect and he is not giving me that it is time to throw in the towel and move on. Respect is something I always demanded from people but I let a man walk all over me... again. I thought because we were friends I could just be myself but WE CAN'T just be ourselves. This book put me in a better state of mind and I thank you for that, I should have read it 2 weeks ago.Show Less

so i purchased this book as a Christmas gift for a single friend of mine. of course,i had to read it myself first..one because i wanted it to be right as a gift and two because it sounded really interesting. I'm not even done with the book yet(exactly 1/2 through)and felt the uncontrollable need to comment. So far, i have had to talk myself into continuing to read about 8 times now. Dont get me wrong, there is some great information here. a solid 70 pages worth(as i page though the last 1/2). Wonderful information about slowing yourself down in a single girl's world, answers to some of those crazy questions we ask ourselves as were growing, what its like to be married, as well as excellent and truthful quotes from men. But most of the time, i read through these writings feeling like if i was ever to get married(apparently the goal above all goals and in which its ok & right to forget everything about being true to yourself)-i would need to change every honest thing about myself, that i happen to like though -the book says are unacceptable. I am 'do & don't & do & don't & if he...then you should...' out! If this was written to be carried around as a pocket guide to be referenced before a girls every spoken sentence or natural action to 'make sure' it made a man feel like the big macho guy, it should have left out all the over-effort at attempting to be witty. This book was all about playing games, pretending your not where or who you are and endlessly stroking a mans ego. question?-if you have to continually stroke you mans ego...how much of a man is he in the first place? Again, this book DID have a lot of good information, but its better scanned and referenced (or for a great comedy skit& I dont mean its filled with its own amazing jokes)rather than read. As far as giving it as a Christmas gift...I still will, with a huge disclaimer attached. *Read for fun, but promise not to change who you are...cuz that's who 'he' is really looking for anyway.Show Less

a groundbreaking, exceptional read
Sherry Argov in her new book, Why Men Marry Bitches set the stage for the dating arena. Argov hold no bars. Unlike, no other book, her tell it like it is, in you face practical book offers advice on how to capture and keep the heart of your man. It is an excellent masterpiece that can easily be enjoyed in one sitting. Argov really tells women how to gain confidence and self-respect which put you in the drivers seat of the relationship. It is undoubtedly the best relationship book I have read thus far.

I ENDORSE THIS BOOK AS A THERAPIST
I LOVED LOVED LOVED this one, far better than her previous works. Argov pulls the layers back much deeper in this title. She tells the reader that she spent hundreds of hours interviewing men, and when I read the material to professional and eligible men their feedback is that Argov really did get the secrets men rarely disclose. This book really empowers women--with knowledge. After reading the 'button pushing' chapter about how men deliberately antagonize women, I believe this is the most useful book FOR WOMEN that I've come across. It teaches women how to have self worth, and to make a man want to be exclusive with you. Excellent read. I've recommended it to my clients. Argov is a visionary and this book is new, fresh and builds on her previous works.

A Girl's Guide to a Man
OMG What a great book!! This is better than Navajo whisperers to decipher 'male speak'. This book gives single women ammunition to go out and 'get that man'. And I've learned now that B-I-T-C-H isn't such a bad name afterwards!!

This book is very encouraging. It is very real with the reader. It's also very fun to read. I just wish Argov would use a little more than just interviews with men and anecdotes. It might give her more credibility. However, the book is very truthful, very strong and when you're done it makes you think about what you want rather than what he wants.

Wish I had read a long time ago!
I read both books and highly recommend them. It seemed like up front, tough love advice from a good friend instead of a relationship book that I would be embarrassed to admit I own. I definitely realized things I have been doing wrong in relationships and will never again be the doormat or fall into the "too nice" habit.

Outrageously funny with hard-hitting advice for single women!
I read "Why Men Love Bitches" years ago and it changed my life, and then later I benefited from "Why Men Marry Bitches". I didn't know how to stand up for myself in a relationship, which is why I always accepted a man¿s hurtful behavior and experienced failed relationships and a broken heart. Sherry's book opened my eyes to my faulty belief system, changed my attitude about myself and my relationship behavior and ultimately gained me confidence and self-respect that attracted men who would honor me as a woman. Not to mention it is an incredibly entertaining read! Nancy Nichols, author of Secrets of the Ultimate Husband Hunter: How to Attract Men, Enjoy Dating and Recognize the Love of Your Life, endorsed by Sherry Argov, Why Men Marry Bitches.

Awesome :-)
All I have to say is this is a great book, it is like no other. I bought it 2 nights ago and have already finished it and I work full time. I couldn't put it down. I really think more women need to read inspiring books like this so that they realize how strong they are and that men really do like that. I recommend this book to any female, young old married or single.

Turns the cranial lightbulb on!
I agree that this book will be helpful to women who don't already know that they are a great catch, but allow me to make it simple...don't focus on a man so much and focus on yourself more, and presto!...everything in this book will happen naturally. Men want what you want..someone they can respect, who's challenging, fun, (and if you're not having fun then get out..what's the point?) trustworthy, successful in their own right, confident and someone who.. now listen up ladies..LOVE'S HERSELF. :) If you have that, it shows and that's the biggest hook of all.

standing up for yourself
Bottom line, Sherry Argov tells women that they need to be secure & happy with themselves to be in a good, balanced relationship. Then she demystifies some of the common behavoir we've all come across in men - such as, why they don't call when they say they will, why they will elevate a conversation by pushing your buttons. After interviewing a lot of men, she explains why they do this and what they percieve to be desirable in a woman they want to be with. It does not tell you to be someone else or not be yourself. It sheds light on the dynamics between men and women and encourages a balanced relationship. Apparenlty there are some pretty common pitfalls out there - she's helping us to identify them and now HOW to act instead of REACT. Great book!

The first one helped me solidify traits that i knew were attractive to men and do away with some bad habits. Im back with an ex and theres already a difference in how we communicate. Def in a good way. Sherry proves with her common sense principles that commom sense isnt all too common anymore. A biig thank you not sure if shes married but i deem her credible based on the instant results im receiving! Ladies its a whole lot more to a relationship then waiting on him hand and foot. Keep your wits about you and never forget to stroke his ego mercilessly!!!!!!!!!!!!

I Loved It
This book definitely gives women a look for a different point of view. After being with a guy for 3 years and breaking up, I can definitely see the things I did to drive him away. HOWEVER I see a lot of things I should never have put up with to start. Very inspirational. I would definitely recommend it to single, engaged, and married woman alike.

I LOVE THIS BOOK, IT'S MY RELATIONSHIP BIBLE
I read both books and this book helped me get the ring. I keep it handy and refer back to certain pages ever now and again! Every woman should own at least one copy of each book!

Better than her first book
I liked the flow of this book better, the only thing is that the book really focuses on the beginning of a relationship and getting it started right. That's all good and well, but a lot of people are already in relationships. It offers a lot of common sense, and sometimes that's all a person needs to be reminded of.
