I read this on the recommendation of a friend, and it was the worst book I have ever read in my life - which is really saying something, because I read 50 Shades of Grey.
If this book is by any means an accurate depiction of modern relationships - hell no. I will gladly just stay single for the rest of my days rather than dealing with this fucking nonsense:
"Whenever he does something handy around the house like putting up a shelf, praise him. It doesn't matter if the shelf hangs at a 45-degree angle." What the actual fuck? No.
"Men have big egos and they need to have them stroked. This is what the 'dumb fox' does." No.
"A tip: When you are at his place any day of the week, don't do any housework" What the - WHY IS THIS A TIP? Are women doing this? Fine. I agree with this one. STOP THAT.
"Never ask a man to do something more than twice or he'll feel as though he's being scolded by Mom." Are you dating a 12 year old?
"If that fateful day ever does arrive when he tells you that you are a bitch? Stop, and take a deep breath. Then enjoy the moment. Smile internally as you say to yourself, 'Okay. Now I know he truly does love me.'" Holy hell. This is the most terrifying paragraph in the English language. Nope nope nope nope nope nope nope.

i remember people raving about this book but this seemed like basic self respect in regards to relationships? it was an easy read it was just average
Please, if you have (or want) a lovely partner who lets you be yourself, with all your ups and downs, and likes/loves you for who you are... Don't read this.
Not high literature but at the end of the day I learned a lot from this book
Probably a god awful book. Sure it’s very sexist and the men are idiots and it’s another book blaming women for putting up with their behaviour rather than the men causing harm. HOWEVER I was very lonely and sad in a Russian airport when I read this so I read it all in one lot and oh wow I wish I’d taken the advice set out in it now - could have save a lot of heartache. Anyway clearly I’m no good with self help books as I read this , spat it out my ear and proceeded to vomit it al down myself by my behaviour but I do love a good self help book and if nothing else I did screenshot the quote about when a woman goes to a man late at night she might as well have a sign saying she delivers or something , I’ll give it a nice 3 for that quote
