Act Like a Lady, Think Like a Man: What Men Really Think About Love, Relationships, Intimacy, and Commitment Paperback – November 22, 2011

Mr. Steve Harvey you did your thing writing this book specifically for women. I believe this helped me to speak up more for what I wanted from my boyfriend who end up becoming my husband. Funny and real. Thanks for sharing your knowledge about men

**Book Review: Act Like A Lady, Think Like A Man by Steve Harvey**Having just read "Act Like A Lady, Think Like A Man" for the second time, I am continually impressed by the wealth of relationship advice it offers. Steve Harvey brings a unique perspective to the table, drawing from his own experiences and the lessons he's learned as a father of daughters. His insights resonate deeply, encouraging women to understand the male mindset and navigate the complexities of romantic relationships with confidence. Despite some potential pushback from both genders, the practical advice presented is grounded in a sincere desire to help women avoid the pitfalls of unhealthy relationships.One of the standout elements of Harvey's approach is his emphasis on self-awareness and empowerment. He urges women to embrace their worth and set high standards for their partners. This message is particularly valuable in a world where societal pressures can lead to compromising one’s values for the sake of a relationship. I appreciate Harvey’s straightforwardness; his candid discussions about dating and love resonate with anyone who has felt the confusion and frustration of navigating modern romance. It’s refreshing to see someone tackle these topics with both humor and honesty.Ultimately, "Act Like A Lady, Think Like A Man" serves as a guide for recognizing when to invest in a relationship and when to walk away. Harvey's lessons on timing—knowing when to hold on and when to let go—are particularly poignant. His advice is not just theoretical; it’s a call to action for anyone tired of wasting time on the wrong person. I am grateful for the clarity and wisdom he provides, making this book a valuable resource for anyone looking to foster meaningful connections. Thank you, Steve Harvey, for your insightful take on relationships; it’s a book I will continue to revisit as I navigate my own romantic journey.

This book is a great book for females. I was shocked to discover some of the things that I did. For example the 3 truisms to male commitment. Who he is? What he does? and How much he makes? Only to discover that the only thing a woman can do in regards to a man who has not discovered these 3 truisms is for her to be a support in helping him to focus on his goals. Our plan to support a man should solely rely on if we can find our self as fitting within his plan. Otherwise we are giving of our self only to be wasting much unwanted and unneeded time.Mr Harvey speak about the 90 day rule as a measurement of time before giving of the cookie. While analyzing the 90 day rule as an important tool for knowing all that you should now about a person and most importantly getting the respect desired, makes an invisible attempt to display that it is also suitable after 3 months to get married.Furthermore, how to tell if a female is a sports fish or a keeper is similar to saying, ¨Are you a toy or someone who can be taken home to mom. Well, this chapter would have a female who views herself as a keeper reevaluate the way that they may have been doing things.The five questions of seriousness are great question to use to evaluate a man's sincerity. Everyone should have a plan when dating someone. I feel that dating is to get married. If you don't plan on getting married why date. By knowing a mans short-term, and long-term goals, his views on relationships, what he thinks of you ; not being the same as how he feels about you, should tell you exactly where your relationship is headed before you get too deep. If the man that you love profess his love for you but has not committed to marrying you and you are having concerns, it is because you (female) has not required him too.I like this book because introduced a lot new concepts. Sports fishing vs keeper, Mama Boys, Why men cheat, and most of all I enjoyed the how to spots. Why? I can utilize new informationI rated it a five because it only to me three days to read, alongside a super busy schedule. I like how he spoke of his wife and how witty she was and is during their dating days. She let him know what she expected. If he wanted her he had step up and realize that she's real and he has to start living right by her. Marjorie packing her bags and leaving set the tone for his much needed maturity in the situation.If I had to recommend this book to someone it would be my best friend since high school, Monique.
