Act Like a Lady, Think Like a Man: What Men Really Think About Love, Relationships, Intimacy, and Commitment

Overview

Steve Harvey, the host of the nationally syndicated Steve Harvey Morning Show, can't count the number of impressive women he's met over the years, whether it's through the "Strawberry Letters" segment of his program or while on tour for his comedy shows. These are women who can run a small business, keep a household with three kids in tiptop shape, and chair a church group all at the same time. Yet when it comes to relationships, they can't figure out what makes men tick. Why? According to Steve it's because they're asking other women for advice when no one but another man can tell them how to find and keep a man. In Act Like a Lady, Think Like a Man, Steve lets women inside the mindset of a man and sheds lights on concepts and questions such as:

--The Ninety Day Rule: Ford requires it of its employees. Should you require it of your man?

--How to spot a mama's boy and what if anything you can do about it.

--When to introduce the kids. And what to read into the first interaction between your date and your kids.

--The five questions every woman should ask a man to determine how serious he is.

-- And more...

Sometimes funny, sometimes direct, but always truthful, Act Like a Lady, Think Like a Man is a book you must read if you want to understand how men think when it comes to relationships.

• Humorously enlightening...

  Posted March 09, 2009 by F. G. T., Davis, CA

  I never would have thought that men are such conniving beings, but this book says it all...
  
  I thought this book was very enlightening, and it explained to me many things that I had always wondered about men, as well as some mistakes I may have made in the past. While I would not follow the book exactly, I found some of the advise very useful. I recommend it as a fun, useful read.

• It's okay

  I thought he had some very good points, and I know it was written to be informative to women but after a while I got a little tired of being told how I needed to keep up all the loose ends and it sounding like "boys will be boys" so if you want to keep your man don't expect them to be anything more than the man-child they really are.
  
  For the type of advice or whatever you want to say this type of book doles out, I liked "He's Just Not That Into You" better.
