Wasted Years..., October 17, 2009
This review is from: Alpha Male: Who They Are, How They Think, What They Want, How To Attract, Meet, Marry & Train One (Paperback)
I've been proposed to twice in my life, and both marriages failed miserably. I can only imagine if I had the advice of XX and YY firmly within my grasp back then how much better I might have fared. Not in terms of increasing the number of proposals, but in terms of improving the choices I made. Great wisdom imparted here. To the uninitiated, pay heed! This new tome is worth its weight in gold (and you know how much that costs these days).

Alpha Male 6 stars ^^^^^^, October 24, 2009
This review is from: Alpha Male: Who They Are, How They Think, What They Want, How To Attract, Meet, Marry & Train One (Paperback)
I've been in love with the same Alpha guy for 4 years. Everytime I tried to bring the conversation around to the subject of marriage, he said there was plenty of time later for that, why change a good relationship etc. etc. I just bought Alpha Male (book) and I did what it said on page 104. My boyfriend proposed. We're getting married this May. I can't begin to say how happy I am. This book is AWESOME.******

The Best Match, April 19, 2009
This review is from: Alpha Male: Who They Are, How They Think, What They Want, How To Attract, Meet, Marry & Train One (Paperback)
I enjoy reading in the genre on relationships, including all the recent classics, and have read tons of books over the past few years, but this is the book that has best connected with me and inspired me thus far. It fits best with who I am and have always been. The "type" of man with whom one ends up needs to be taken seriously, for he can shape and define one's quality of life in so many ways, and the lives of any children one has with him. I feel that I am in the best and most mature position that I've ever been in when it comes to making choices about relationships and am able to make them with 20-20 vision. Every woman gets to this position in life at a certain point, sooner or later, and I'm glad that in my case it's sooner. I don't agree with the theories that suggest that an alpha woman is best off with a beta man, and this book certainly clarifies why that's not true. For the alpha guy will best appreciate-and deserve-the talents that the alpha female has to offer-not only as a professional, but also in terms of the classic art of being a woman. I like this book and it provides frameworks for what I've meant since I was 17, in saying that I will only marry a "man for all seasons," or even nowadays, in my resolve that I will only "marry at the front line of culture." The "beta" type of guy can be bad news not only personally, but also professionally, and I try my best never to deal with him. His jealousy, his insecurity, his pettiness, his narcissism, are almost always self-evident. And he's usually the one trying to criticize the alpha types. Spiritually and socially, it's best to keep one's standards high and to hold out for the very best. As a scholar, I theorize masculinity and femininity, but in the end, this is how it all comes home for me.
