Product Description
Book Description
If someone told you that you could have better, more meaningful communication with your partner, hug him without his thinking sex was imminent, get him to become more involved with the kids, or even realize that, unlike the oven, the house isn't self-cleaning, wouldn't you want to know how? Of course you would. Well, Michele Weiner-Davis is about to let you in on her secrets.
Drawing on more than two decades of experience in helping couples make their relationships great and using her own twenty-something year old marriage as a testing ground for her techniques, Weiner-Davis explains:
- women's biggest "beefs" about men
- why blaming, nagging, and talking about feelings don't work
- why action-oriented methods are infinitely more effective
- how to talk so men will listen
Most important, Weiner-Davis shows how every woman can become an expert at getting her man to be more responsive to the things she wants and needs in their relationship. So, if you've been at the end of your relationship rope and you're ready to let go of the line, hang in there . . . solutions are right around the corner.

seminars, or reading self-help books), knowing that you can effect change single-handedly enables you to take the energy you spent trying to convince your mate there's a problem and that he's the cause of it and funnel this energy into a vastly more productive direction. This means you can take charge of your life rather than just wishing and hoping your man will change. Read the first page

Best book on relationship I've ever read!!,
By michmich "michelle" (Canada) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Getting Through to the Man You Love: The No-Nonsense, No-Nagging Guide for Women (Paperback)
This books confirms what I've suspected over the past 6 years of marriage. If you want to change anything, you've got to do it yourself!I've tried talking to my husband - and not talking. I've tried writing letters. I've tried counselling. I've read so many books. And somehow, the only place our relationship has gone is in a circle!! This book is truly eye-opening. It helps us women get our power back, and helps us tap back into our wisdom. It's not a book about kow-towing to your man - it's a book about strategy. If you, like me, have learned that "love is not enough", you have to read this book!! I have never felt that anyone was speaking to me as directly as Michele Weiner-Davis. THANK YOU for writing this wise book!! It should save countless marriages, as it has mine!!

Very goal oriented book on making relationships work better,
By A Customer
This review is from: Getting Through to the Man You Love: The No-Nonsense, No-Nagging Guide for Women (Paperback)
Let me just say - I loved this book, and have loaned it to some friend who've been very impessed as well. I'm shocked it only has one review so far, and so was inspired to write another.It's very pragmatic, action-oriented, and goal oriented. I actually took notes on it. Here's a summary of my notes(although you'll definately want the get the book, if just for the examples and short stories alone): Instead of thinking of things he shouldn't do, think of what he should do. Your goals should be specific and action oriented, like "hold hands in movies". Break your goals into mini-goals If a particular stragety doesn't work, don't do it! Keep your eyes on the cheese. Do something different strategies:

I'm Finally Getting Through to The Man I Love,
By Louise (New York) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Getting Through to the Man You Love: The No-Nonsense, No-Nagging Guide for Women (Paperback)
I am only one of a lot of women out there but wanted to personally say I love this book.I call it my "man bible". I literally carry it with me all the time. I don't keep it at home because heaven forbid he would find it. I have now read the book twice and am now going through it again a third time underlining everything that I want to emphasize in my head. That way I figured I could look at these lined phrases in those emergency circumstances. This wonderful book has really given me new eyes to look through. I will probably memorize it from cover to cover and then read some more. I have already seen some changes! This book is the best thing I have found in a long time.
