Why Men Love Bitches
Posted by kim on October 23, 2006
A couple of years ago, the talk shows were raving about the book: He’s Just Not That Into You: The No-Excuses Truth to Understanding Guys. I fell for the hype and headed to Amazon.com to buy my own copy. Of course, Amazon likes to recommend other things to purchase. The “Buy Both and Save” button landed me Why Men Love Bitches: From Doormat to Dreamgirl-A Woman’s Guide to Holding Her Own in a Relationship as well. I actually didn’t save any money by buying both at the same time, so I commend Amazon for the excellent marketing ploy.
Well, I just had to read the back cover of He’s Just Not That Into You to realize that the guy I was dating was just not that into me. So, on to Why Men Love Bitches.
My friend and I both read the book and used the techniques on our boyfriends. They were seriously eating out of our hands. We both gave the book rave reviews and recommended it to all our other friends (Note, it worked for married couples as well). But once I got him hooked, lined and sunk, I realized that I was just not that into him. I seem to have that problem once the chase is over.
I’m not much of a book reader. I don’t even like to read long newspaper articles. But I did read the Bitch Book in its entirety. Twice. Right now I’m reading 20 Times a Lady by Karyn Bosnak. Karyn was that chick that created SaveKaryn.com and got strangers to pay off her credit card bills. Smart Girl. And she can write, too. The dating humor reminds me a little of The Year of Yes by Maria Dahvana Headley. (click for my review).
Pretty funny story too… stalker
