I really wondered what I could get from this book after 13 years of marriage to a great guy who is also the great father of my children. But let me tell you there is so much here! The self-assessments made me realize how much more criticizing than complimenting I was doing, how I was getting too busy to play, and most of all gave communication techniques. It's true that my husband was attracted to me for the power and self-confidence I had when we first met, but so much of it had waned over time. I'm looking forward to really working on myself so that I can add that faceted sparkle to our relationship again. Thank you Dr. Gilda!

I received this book from my godmother in the middle of my break up with my fiance. I must say that this book helped me so much and I realized that I was in love with the idea of getting married and not in love with the man I almost did marry. This book has soo much good advice in it for woman who are either married or single. Don't take my advice, buy it and you will love it too.

Just wanted to say...I have recently purchased, and am in the process of reading the book entitled "Don't Bet On The Prince" by Dr. Gilda Carle..I must say, this is one of the refreshing and enlightening books I have read in a long time...It's timely message has helped me more than I can begin to say... Dr.Gilda has answered so many questions that I have had in my heart for so very long..It is teaching me about myself and the mechanics of the female heart! The book is written from Dr. Gilda's heart to all the broken hearted and disillusioned women of our time... Surely a masterpiece that stands alone in its class! I applaud Dr. Gilda for her frankness and boldness to share and explain the complex issues of the human heart..Her motive is clear... to help the hurting and get them back on the road to recovery! I highly recommend this wonderful book to all women that are confused, disoriented, used, abused, mistreated, etc.. Get it at all costs, read it. and get back your dignity, self-confidence, pride and self-worth ! Women were created to be loved, treated tenderly and not abused! Dr. Gilda, your book is truly an answer to prayer...May you be blessed beyond measure for all the good that you do with a pure heart for all the hurting women of our time ! Love to Dr. Gilda, and to all who read this review !

I really enjoyed reading this book. Gilda has helped me tremendously. I realize that I have bet on princes in the past but now know how to look out for them so that I can be self-confident and find a person who truly deserves me. I had been moping over an ex for 6 months until Gilda made me see the light. Thank you Gilda. Now I can get on with my life and improve myself.

This book was awesome! I learned a lot about myself and it put me in a better position in future relationships. It was very insightful and I have received positive results by implementing some of the principles of this book.

"Don't Bet on the Prince!" is an amazing book. And the fact that I read it cover-to-cover proves it's not just for women. As Dr. Gilda suggests, I interpreted the subtitle as "How to Have the GOAL You Want by Betting on Yourself." I first went to Dr. Gilda's website, [...], and read the testimonials about her and this book--from both women AND MEN! Then I read the book, but I especially COMPLETED EACH SELF-ASSESSMENT. They sparked my motivation to complete the writing, illustration, and publishing of my children's book, "Cosmic Carol: Adventures in Color." I had been working on the book for about 10 years. But "Don't Bet on the Prince!" pushed me to realize that if my book would ever get out there, it would have to be totally up to me. I abandoned my pipe dreams, and got to work. "Cosmic Carol" is now just the first in a children's book SERIES! And it was not because some "prince" made it happen. There's only one way to make life happen: We must be our own "princes." Thank you, Dr. Gilda, for impacting my life!
