Men Don't Love Women Like You!: The Brutal Truth About Dating, Relationships, and How to Go from Placeholder to Game Changer Paperback – 4 Dec. 2015

I chose this rating because I can already see it working like magic in my life. I'm excited about the journey of dating again. I haven't read like that in ages I couldn't put it down. I like the style of writing, the case studies, wealth of experience the author had, the truth! Don't like that there isn't a book out there like this for men to find Spartan women. Correct me if I'm wrong!? Its all good though! I love that this book reminded me of how I used to be! "Sophia home now! :)" I would recommend this book to all women who have breath in their body! Read it and revamp! This is Sparta!

This is one of the best books out there on modern day Man-Woman relationships - in the top 2 in my opinion and I've read MANY! I know this guy won't be to everyone's taste - he pulls no punches and lays it all bare - but if you are sick and tired of treating men the way you'd like to be treated and getting nothing back you will read this and wise up! I disagree with the last reviewer who said G.I. Lambert doesn't like men or women; he is trying to encourage women to reclaim their power and enjoy their femininity rather than continue getting downtrodden and kicked to the kerb. Not all guys are as unevolved as the ones you'll meet on these pages but if you're so happy in love then why are you reading this book? If you aren't being treated the way you know you should be, if you're wasting precious hours of your life trying to figure out why he doesn't seem as interested in you as you are in him, then read this and arm yourself cookie! It's life changing!

Don’t follow the dating advice where the author encourages women to make the first move and approach a guy she’s interested in if he isn’t noticing her. It’s not empowering and can’t possibly work. If you do that, the chase is over as the man will know he can get you even before the game has began. The way I see it, unless the man approaches you first, you’re forcing something to happen that simply wasn’t meant to happen.I know the author is trying to empower women to be powerful beyond belief, but when it comes to relationships, the man has to be the aggressor, or he will never fall head over heels with you. He talks about not chasing men but approaching a man kills the chase he needs to fall in love madly.The very first part of the book is AMAZING though, for that alone it deserves 5 stars, the rest I would take with a pinch of salt.I purchased the book not because of relationship problems, every man I’ve dated seriously has always wanted to marry me, but I’m not ready for that kinda thing. Somehow I’m super confident with men, but in life in general and especially work I seem to lack assertiveness. Even though my colleagues think I’m confident, deep down I feel small and let things slide because I don’t want them to dislike me. To hell with that, now that I’m going to unleash my inner Spartan I’ll be unstoppable.

Upon re-reading it few times, I had to change my review.Studying psychology of relationships gives a lot of insight into what's working and what's not - and I have recent real-life examples to prove that the advice in this book doesn't always work the way it's intended.Although Lambert does a fairly good job with empowering women, he puts a bit too much emphasis on putting yourself on the pedestal. That kind of egoic behaviour, sadly, often leads to the "I am the best, everyone else is a moron" thinking.I see the point of bringing out quantum physics/law of attraction, but certain aspects (like "shopping" mindset, ie. if a guy doesn't make up his mind within certain period of time, you cut him off) encourages lack of respect towards human beings.Lambert does put emphasis on communication (instead of being passive aggressive) and that's great, but at the same not following his advice automatically makes you a "basic b*tch", which suggests that all girls who break his "rules" and yet are in happy relationships (apparently not possible?) are just "placeholders" waiting to be replaced for the "game changer". I dare to disagree.The whole book is a mixture of a really great advice, some very egoistic pointers and a bit of very, very poor tips. As such, even though the book can teach you how to love yourself and be less serious about life, some of the advice is disputable.It is basically one of the "love or hate" positions, so you have to decide yourself which camp you are. I'd recommend it, simply for getting a completely different point of view on relationships & dating.

Well written

Wow! This book really makes you change the way you think. Brutal at times but a real insight. Middle sections get a little boring to read for the firat and last chapters are great. Well worth a read if you need to gain some control.

Absolutely fantastic, this book has to be the best book I read in years. As women we are conditioned to be people pleasers and do everything for others, we never put ourselves first. No no no it's not right. This author is awesome, it has given me the kick up the backside I needed. I have now purchased all his books and I cannot wait for Spartan in December, wish it was going to be released sooner like my birthday month October would be great lol. Definitely a must have for every woman. 🤗.

Essentially the author is suggesting women take on the attitude that they are a Goddess and a man must prove his worth. This is great, but his date chat suggestions don't really work outside the US. He misspells throughout - ferry rather than fairy dust and Queen Regnent rather than Regent are examples. He also advocates dating men with baggage such as those already in a relationship. Effectively this goes against the sisterhood code and encourages ill gotten gains. 97% of affairs fail. He fails to suggest women should grow character and act from their higher selves, which creates much more true happiness, self esteem and self worth.
