Straight Talk, No Chaser audiobook

This book straightend me right up when it comes to men. I know now how to chose my next man and exactly what I need to do to keep him. Kudos to Steve Harvey. If women read this and don't understand that these words are coming out of a man who has been married three times and has finally learned how to be a good man.... then they just don't want to hear the truth. It is what it is. Be smart, keep yourself updated.. looks wise and intelligence wise. Keep it real. That's basically what Steve says. Keep it real!!! Stop dreaming and waiting for a man to be your saviour. It takes two whole people to have a successful relationship!

I always thought Steve Harvey was just a comedian/actor, so when until I checked this out, I had no idea he gives advice to mostly single women on his own radio show.Many of the reviewers thought this book should be subtitled, "How To Please a Man," but I think it should be subtitled, "How Not to Get Used by a Man".I am more conservative than Steve, but thought he gave great advice! If you are single and want to avoid a broken heart and/or wasting time on some guy that is not for you, read this. Steve does go on to give advice on how to keep Mr. Right interested. So much of it is common sense: don't let yourself go and keep your relationship special by putting effort into it. If Mr. Right isn't putting any energy into the relationship, he must not be Mr. Right! Talk to him about your expectations, and if need be, move on! I'm not sure Steve said that last part, but he got close enough.Why did an old married lady like me keep listening? Steve is very entertaining--and he is right for the most part!

Very insightful, and good continuation from his first book (Act like a lady think like a man). I particularly like how Steve writes as if he's talking to you, so when you read it's as if he's sitting on the couch opposite to you giving you his advice on how to keep and get your mate. It really has that one-on-one personal feel to it when you read. The content of the book basically revolves around the way men think. He states, throughout the book, a theme of "men are simple" (In the sense that they aren't over-thinkers, or complex when it comes to particular decisions) and he gives a lot of examples and personal scenario to make it clearer for you to picture the idea. It is sexist in the sense that it's male's perspective on particular matters BUT he does shed light on the way women think and gives them advice on how to control the situation. Personally, It's a good book. What can you take away from reading it? Basically you don't have to comply to every word he says because persons lead different lifestyles but you can use the insight to help other female friends, and it also answers some of the questions that women have been wondering about how men feel on particular matters. So it's a good read, I'd recommend it for older teens (15/16 plus). I think that's the age when we want answers and were experimenting with romance and relationships and honestly if your parents hadn't given you "the talk" then you'd be like a fish out of water. So this can definitely give you an idea of what guys are thinking and help you avoid some of those weird relationships. Especially the ones that leave you scarred.

"Every Women should read this at age 15"If you could sum up Straight Talk, No Chaser in three words, what would they be?That way we can avoid so many bad decisions. This should be a prerequisite to dating.What other book might you compare Straight Talk, No Chaser to and why?I have none in my library to compare it with. This is like a bible for dating men.Have you listened to any of Steve Harvey’s other performances before? How does this one compare?No this was my first. I wish his first book was here too. I would not hesitate in reading it cover to cover.What’s an idea from the book that you will remember?The 90 day rule and why.Any additional comments?Please bring his first book here to audibles - Think like a man, act like a Lady

Questo libro non è uno dei soliti racconti dove qualcuno cerca di spiegarci come ragionano gli uomini. Qui si tratta di un uomo che ci parla dei suoi simili e ci spiega, come vedono loro il mondo e noi donne. Steve ci parla di se e dei suoi amici, ci spiega come gli uomini vedono il mondo e vedono coloro che dovranno affrontare nella vita, le donne. Non è il primo a farlo e non sarà l'ultimo ma queste pagine mi hanno dato modo di pensare e di farmi domande che mai avrei pensato. Certo, tutte noi abbiamo degli amici che cercano di spiegarci come vanno le cose ma non è sempre vero quello che dicono. continua...[http://emozionidiunamusa.blogspot.it/...]

Good book for women esp single women to read and thanks steve for givin us the real truth..all women could learn a few things

WRITE MORE STEVE

I read this book after my first Steve Harvey book 'Act Like a Lady; Think Like a Man' and the only thing I am disappointed with is the fact that I didn't read this at least 2 years ago. It is another reinforcement of what he said in his first book, but highly relevant. I do feel that some things that Steve says in this book can come across as being outdated and may come across as being offensive, such as, a woman needs to look after them self because if you don't your man may go elsewhere for the cookie...I want to think that men can't be that shallow, and Steve does reinforce that anything he says is not about 'every man' but some men, but it is disheartening that 'some men' feel that way. On the other hand I do agree that we need to look after ourselves, but finding the right man that would love you for who you are and not the cosmetic vision that is placed in front of him is a long process. This book is just a helpful and sometimes humorous way to open my eyes to what men are like. Maybe I was just brought up in the Outer Hebrides, but dedicating myself to bringing up my two children after my divorce and now in the dating pool after they have grown; this book has helped to keep my standards high and hopefully one day my Steve Harvey tactics will pay off. Only time will tell. I recommend this book but if you have to read one or the other...read Act Like a Lady; Think Like a Man.

This book was a great supplement to “ Act Like A Lady, Think Like A Man”. Although a little repetitive, it never got boring. The first book was more so about how to conduct yourself to get in the relationship, and this one focused on how to keep the relationship on good terms once you had it. Of course as a woman reading this I didnt agree with everything Steve wrote however I know that he was right whether I agreed or not. The book provides good insight and advice into effective communication for getting what you want out of a relationship. Will definitely keep some of his keep points in mind.

An easy, interesting read. There may not be much new information for most women - yeah, we do know these things about men, whether we want to admit it or not. But I still found the book surprisingly thought-provoking. I also liked the way he put it out there. He simply shared a man's perpective about things and the way men were, without being defensive about it.

All I have to say about this book is...funny. I really enjoyed Steve's work in the form of a book. I've always enjoyed his stand up, this was different. He was quite serious, but brutually honest in this book. I didn't read his first book, but it seems he reiteriates a lot of what he says in that book in this one. So I will probably skip it. I really did enjoy this one, though.

Exactly what you would expect. Liked it just as much as the first. It's really just an extension of the first book clarifying and adding on a few more things. Its a lot of info and the books should be kept like bibles that are read sporatically throughout your relationship life. Now if only men would ever read these things. ha

Particularly insightful and helpful for a woman who grew up with only women in the house! He is hilarious and honest and I feel a much better understanding of the male behaviors in relationships. Really great book.
