I was familiar with most of the ideas in this book, but it was really interesting to read so many men's words and commentary on them. From that perspective, I feel I understand on a much deeper level what those topics really mean to them. But there were times when Feldhahn's analysis of her data seemed a little awkward. (

Someone told me this would solve the question: "What is he really thinking when you ask him what he's thinking about and he says: 'nothing.'?" ( Feel free to correct the puntuation errors in that sentence. )

I don't think it did.
The goal was good. The execution was muddled for a couple of reasons. 1, the author kept saying how shocked she was when she saw her results. It felt repetitive. 2, there was no hard data to support her data. No "how many people took this survey," no "they were lumped according to age," nada. Maybe that wasn't significant. But I'd still like some evidence that this wasn't a MonkeySurvey type deal. (

I don't remember why I put this book on my TBR pile. It was an ok read, it was just very obvious stuff to me. The data from her questionnaires, was interesting and confirmed so much of what I felt I already knew. The inner lives of men, is really not that big of a mystery. Love Languages was a much more enlightening book. Maybe I read them out of order.

A book that showcases the inner lives of men, how to understand and to flow with the way they reason, and to know the reason they do what they do. (

I did a lot of underlining so Crystal knew what applied to me. (

Discover the truth he wants you to know!

The man in your life is keeping secrets. They're so deep inside he barely knows they're there, much less how to talk to you about them. Yet he genuinely wants you to "get" him -- to understand his inner life, his fears, his needs...

In her landmark best-seller, For Women Only, Shaunti Feldhahn reveals what every woman -- single or married -- needs to know. Based on rigorous research with thousands of men, Shaunti delivers one eye-opening revelation after another, including:

�?� Why your respect means more to him than your love
�?� How he feels deep inside about his role as provider
�?� What it means for a man to be so visually "wired"
�?� Why sex for him is primarily emotional, not physical
�?� What he most wishes he could say to you

Now, in this expanded and updated edition, you'll find insights from the latest brain research plus an all-new chapter that shows what's really going on when he seems to "check out." (You'll be surprised and pleased.)
