A man must achieve a minimum in those three areas to feel like he is fulfilling his duties as a man. These questions by themselves will also cause him to start seeing you in a different, and better light. 11. The Ninety Days Rule As a woman, you will know if a man is serious about you once he claims you (like you are piece of luggage at the airport or something I guess?)

a man always wants something.Always.And when it comes to women, that plan is always to find out two things:1) if u're willing to sleep with him,and 2)if u're,how much it will cost.

No Results

Harvey says the only reason why he is able to stall marriage is that she hasn’t required him to set the date. That’s one of the reasons, Steve says, that poor men run away from their father’s duties: to escape their feelings of inadequacy ( indeed Tony Robbins says his father ran away when strangers donated his family food for Thanksgiving). Not all men are like that. Some men want women who are more equals and who can work for themselves.

Steve Harvey can't count the number of impressive women he's met over the years—the many incredible women who can run a business, have three kids, maintain a household in tiptop shape, and chair a church group all at the same time. So, when it comes to relationships, why can't these same women figure out what makes men commit? According to Steve, it's because they're asking other women for advice when they should be going directly to the source. In this expanded edition, Steve includes an added section of all new advice, with tips on dealing with your partner's exes, spicing up your relationship, ensuring you're ready for that walk down the aisle, and much more. A feature film based on the book, titled Think Like a Man, was released by Sony Pictures' Screen Gems subsidiary on April 20, 2012. Harvey served as an executive producer on the film and made a cameo appearance as himself. I have to question the sanity of someone who says that we all know women run the household, but women should continue to let men think they run it. He knows this, and he still says that? If he's aware of it women are not doing such a hot job of letting men think they run things, are they? Harvey says that when a woman says she doesn’t need any men, men cannot provide and protect, and they feel useless.Don’t be afraid to be upfront with him, either. You start catching the feels? Ask where things are headed or if things will ever get serious between the two of you. And with that comes… Obviously not everything he says in the books is trash but in the same breath he really does not delve much deeper into the subject. The classic mistake he makes is in assuming that all men are the same and all women are looking for the same things in relationships. Mind you there is an audience for this book, narrow as it may be. But following everything he says in this book to the letter will really reduce your relationship to a game instead of something in which two grown intelligent people are building. Ladies: set some standards; make a man respect you, make him put in effort, and make him work for it. Once that is established, you’ll notice a change in the men who pursue you and the way you approach love and life as a whole. When a woman doesn’t provide for these three things, the relationship is doomed. 4. Talking Differences

Oddly, reading this, I couldn’t help but think of marxist feminist scholar Silvia Federici and her 1975 essay " Wages Against Housework," which suggested reproductive labor is the foundation of industry and worthy of a wage. In the book, Harvey instructs women on how to be a "keeper" rather than a "sports fish". He asserts that men are "simple", and that women should understand that they can never be first in a man's life without understanding and accepting that men are driven by who they are, what they do, and how much they make. In the Q&A section, a question asks "What do men think of women who buy drinks?" and he says "It's a total come-on. In our mind, if you want to buy us a drink, you want us. And if we think you want us, well, we're coming in for the kill." Really? So scratch all that talk about a guy's instincts to pursue a woman and chase her? Just stop being afraid, already. The most successful people in this world recognize that taking chances to get what they want is much more productive than sitting around being too scared to take a shot. The same philosophy can be applied to dating: if putting your requirements on the table means you risk him walking away, it’s a risk you have to take. Because that fear can trip you up every time; all too many of you let the guy get away with disrespecting you, putting in minimal effort and holding on to the commitment to you because you’re afraid he’s going to walk away and you’ll be alone again. And we men? We recognize this and play on it, big time.” –S.H. a b Gleiberman, Owen (April 25, 2012). "Think Like a Man". Entertainment Weekly . Retrieved April 27, 2012.From the title, I expected the book to explore the wonders of the human brain and explain the difference between males and females. Disclaimer - a friend asked me to read this with her because she is single and “not sure what she is doing wrong”. I think that Harvey is a much better person to learn from than most other female authors who write for other women.
