This isn't so much a relationship guide as a guide to get your head out of the clouds and into real life. The advice from the author is real and that's what this book is about--getting real. If you are looking for overnight success, I guess this isn't the book for you as it's about working on yourself first before you go out and try to find someone. However, having said that, I will say that doing these things and listening--really, really listening--to what the author says--is what will make the difference between success in dating/relationships or not. It's a fantstic read and one that I highly recommend to those who want better dating/relationships, along with How To Be Wanted: Use the Law of Attraction to Date the Man You Most Desire and Live the Life You Deserve.
Irresistible new dating book for women June 27, 2006

The first chapter of Make Every Man Want You: How to be so damn
irresistible you'll barely keep from dating yourself, is a revised edition of a previous ebook by Marie Forleo. The book title alone is more irresistible then most books of this nature.and suggests a very upbeat author. Yes, Marie happens to be a life coach, dance instructor and choreographer for MTV, VH1 and so forth.
Her writing style is really sharp, crystal clear, to the point, no B.S. that I wish more self-help authors would embrace. Don't go around the long (wrong) way when you can cut through the forest and get to the other side quicker, and with more learning.
The first chapter, Irresistibility 101, reads like the advice from the Tao Te Ching. Most adults, men and women, seem to loose the child-like-ness when we grow up. And being like a child is sometimes irresistible. Just think about how some children can just get what they want, or how they can get out of trouble by being cute, cuddly and of course irresistible. There is a lesson here to be learnt. Let go and be in the now is the sage advice also found in Eckhart Tolle's The Power of Now.
One thing I like about Marie is how direct she is in her advice. And one thing I've heard her say in a previous interview and I fully agree with, and emphasise in my own discussions of relationships is this: You are likely operating on false information. For me one of the greatest sources of dating/relationship problems stems from divorced parents. In
my own situation my mother and father divorced when I was maybe two years old. My dad remarried and my mother had a long term relationship. My dad's 2nd wife passed away and his been alone since; while my mother's long term relationship ended when she got pregnant with my sister. After years of frustration I just realised these two are NOT good role models for how to create and maintain, sustain a healthy, loving and fun long term relationship with a woman.
The "Time-Tested Truths" from Chapter 3 almost read like the Four Noble Truths in Buddhism. Just kidding they are solid and I'm listing them here to let them speak for themselves:
1. A Relationship Will Not Save You
2. Relationships Are Spiritual Opportunities, Not a Needs Exchange
3. Life Is Now: This Is It!
4. Men Are As-Is Merchandise or Love 'Em or Leave 'Em, Baby!
5. If You Want Guarantees In Love, You Don't Want Love
In the next chapter one of the most honest, and funniest lines I've ever read in a book like this, and said by a woman: "Here's a tip: If you think you look fat in a particular outfit, you probably do. This whole chapter is the perfect blue print for a woman to know what NOT to do. And Marie's chapter titles are as spunky and funny as the book title.
All in all there are plenty of gems in this book. And will become my bible for advice to the female species ;-) So many books go on and on without getting to the point. Marie just knows how to make the point with enough irresistibility you can't put this book down once you start reading it. I have female friend, Leonora or Leo for short who does all these things without knowing it. She is a magnet for irresistible attention from men. And has some amazing girlfriends. So unlike those really attractive women who are hated by others, Leo is able to project her irresistible nature to the world. And therefore draws constant attention which she directs which ever way suits her best. And the outcome or result? Well happiness or rather inner joy. Because I learnt a while ago that happiness is what you expect other people to "give" you but joy is what you have inside. And nobody can take that away from you.

This book is possibly the best advice book I've ever read. The author speaks in a clear, no-holds-barred manner. It is also done in a humorous, conspiratorial way, like talking to good friend. She gives good advice about how to live a more satisfying life, and this includes relationships. And it boils down to these 2 concepts: 1) Live in the now. Nothing is more irresistable than a woman who is really enjoying her life.
2) Make you the center of your life, not him. Have a life first, take care of yourself, and your man will want to do the same for you. That way, you won't be looking to him to complete you. (Because you are already complete!) Both you and he will be happier.
What I liked most about this book is that she shows you how to move beyond "the rules" and still have a satisfying relationship with your guy. As a former "rules" adherrent, I find her approach to be freeing and more natural. Ultimately, that's what we want - to be loved and accepted just the way we are. Not because we executed a set of dating techniques well. It's not about manipulation. It's about living your authentic truths. Doing what makes you happy. (From personal experience: when you're happy, he's happy.) It's not about men vs women. It's about your collective truths - your truths, his truths - getting to know each other as unique individuals. That takes a little more work than following a set of arbitrary rules, but it is well worth it.
This book is unlike any other dating advice book I've ever read. It focuses on showing you how to take care of yourself first, and then how the rest (including your romantic life) will just fall into place. It is the advice women sorely need to hear. Pick this up. Your happier life begins now. Good luck!

This book is not about dating or your relationship with your significant other -- actually, that's just the fun & sexy title to get you to read the book. Really, Marie Forleo's book, "Make Every Man Want You (or Make Yours Want You More): How to Be So Damn Irresistible You'll Barely Keep From Dating Yourself!" is a self-improvement book about how to clean up your junk & enjoy your life, regardless of who else is living it with you. The idea is that once you love your life & are enjoying yourself, everyone (including potential mates, clients, friends) will find you irresistible.
I would have never picked this book up (since I'm married) except that Marie and I are in a mastermind group together. But I am SO GLAD that I bought and read her book, because I immediately put into practice & changed some little but major things in my life that have already improved my happiness and my relationship with my husband.
The #1 lesson I put into practice: "Life Is Now, This Is It." My husband and I have been planning to sell our house and move for ages. So I let it go -- clutter filled out house, stuff was broken, because it was like, what's the point? We are going to sell anyway. So we lived in a house we hated. For years.
Right after I finished the book I spent an hour or two cleaning up the front yard & porch -- got rid of a dead bush & junky college-like plastic furniture, and bought 3 new plants & pots for the porch. Wow. What a transformation. Then I de-cluttered the living room & kitchen, got a handyman service to spend 2 hours fixing broken stuff, took 2 loads to charity, and started spending 15 minutes a day just tidying the house.
Having a nice place to hang out w/ my husband has improved my marriage & de-stressed my life -- and reduced my level of frustration because I live in a peaceful environment.
If you just want a few "rules" to follow to trick a man to love you, don't read this book. But if you want to learn how to have an amazing life (with or without a sig other), check out Marie's book!
"Who Knew it Could be this Easy" January 31, 2008

I really enjoyed this book, it was light fun and an easy read. Who knew that being yourself could attract the man of your dreams.
I loved Chapter 4, "the 7 Habits of Highly Unattractive Women". I got such a chuckle reading this chapter and saw the times in my life when I behaved in some of these manners. I know I find it highly unattractive when a man is insecure, needy, or wants constant approval, so why should I think that a man would find these attractive in me.
Chapter 6 also contained some real gems. I especially liked the section on the "Mystical Mr. Right" I get it now... he only exists in my mind!
Another book I have read that I really enjoyed is Being Here: Modern Day Tales of Enlightenment This book has many short stories that all are about "being" and as I know now, "Being Yourself" makes you irresistible.
