Beats the standard game...,
By A Customer
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Make Every Girl Want You (Paperback)
This book presents contrarian views on courting and meeting women. It takes the pressure out of most any meeting. Usually women travel in packs. Hit on one of them, she will shoot you down just for the simultaneous pleasure of looking like a "good girl" and appearing object of men's desire (not all women obviously). Instead, talk with her and her friends casually, briefly, circulate, and come back and ask her (and her friends) to go to a group event. If they are single, why wouldn't they want to go? This sort of approach levels the dating playing field. You will learn that by giving women what they crave, having patience and relinquishing desire, and building a large network of women who will talk you up to their friends, you can have whatever you like. It is not a totally passive process- you just need to know when the timing is right, and make your move away from a group setting- so you can keep your options open with other gals. I like the thinking that went into this book- "out of the box" and fresh. There are a few things I do not totally agree with- I don't ever think you want to turn into a woman's shrink, but besides that, seems pretty sound. We'll see how it works.

A different approach,
By dasn0wman "dasn0wman" (Brooklyn, NY United States) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Make Every Girl Want You (Paperback)
This book teaches a totally different approach on picking up girls. The steps are as follows: 1) develop a good PLATONIC friendship with her by hanging out in a group (platonic is in caps because that is key in the beginning) 2) hang out one-to-one in this still PLATONIC relationship 3) she will attack you 4) remain friends with her even after break-up.I know the above steps sound crazy, but there are many ways to develop this platonic relationship and what the authors suggest is the way that will make girls want you. I never had any problem making new friends. In fact, you probably know you can become friends with females just by acting the way you do with your male buddies. So before I read this book, I would just try to be the center of attention which isn't that hard for me to do because I'm naturally a funny guy. Sometimes to the girls, I just be extra nice to them and voila, they are my friends but I get no sex, of course. What this book preaches is the other way, the correct way to make female friends known as CCR. This stands for Compliments, Compassion, and Reassurance. These are the ingredients to building quality relationships with females because every female is in need for compliments, attention (someone to listen to), and validation. If you think about it, guys need this too so you can actually build good quality friendships with any sex. This is a lesson in good communication skills and this will get the girl wanting you more and eventually, for sex if you supplement CCR with confidence, patience, and infrastructure (building a strong network of female friends - girls like guys who other girls feel comfortable with). I only gave it four stars because I haven't tried the techniques yet, but I will change it to five once I know for sure that it works. Still, I have read other books on picking up girls and they all preach the same techniques. The old saying that it doesn't hurt to try is not the case with the techniques taught by the other books. They stress on odds and the more girls you hit on, the better the chances. Well, after a lot of rejections, believe me, it hurts! And not to mention all the money you will be spending...for nothing if it doesn't work out! Here, at least you end up having a lot of friends, both females and males and enjoying the time you spent in a group or one-to-one, if it doesn't work out. This is a method that truly doesn't hurt to try. I rarely listen to what other people say because I'm so busy trying to be the center of attention and I rarely offer any reassurance because I would rather poke fun at whatever problems people are having to get some laughs. So the only thing I was doing right, according to the book, is the complimenting part. I have overcame my confidence problem by reading other self-help books and I am also very patient, but I never tried to keep an infrastructure of female friends going. If the girl has a boyfriend, she is automatically off my list. If she broke up with me, she is off my list, too. This is bad. The girl with a boyfriend may break up and I would be missing out. In any case, it is always better to have lots of friends since you will bound to need them in the future. I am very excited to try this new method out and wish you luck as well.

Wish I had this sooner!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Make Every Girl Want You (Paperback)
Okay, to start off let me just say that I'm an average guy who has had my fair share of girls and girlfriends - - but can you ever have enough? Since reading this book and implementing the system I have had quantity and quality of women after me that I have never had before. The book intelligently uses all the natural needs and desires of women to help you attract them and doesn't rely or "hitting" on girls or getting super-size muscles etc. In fact the authors recommend not "hitting" on girls! The book is incredible and it works. If I had one complaint it would be that the change isn't instant when you implement the system. It does take a few weeks/months, but it is worth it because after implemented there is a steady stream of girls who will want you. I definitely recommend this book to any guy who wants to get more beautiful girls that he's ever had in his life.

entertaining and smart,
By Ryan D Cameron (Broken Arrow, OK United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Make Every Girl Want You (Paperback)
the inventors of the ideals in this book remind me of those cool guys in my fraternity who always managed to get laid and remain close friends with multiple women at the same time without other women getting jealous. they basically tell you how to let go of your pride and views when socializing with women b/c women want men who agree with their values. this may seem like lying... but i'm sure you've got other values in common with these women that you haven't touched base with yet, so don't screw it up by disagreeing with something they say at first, or saying something they said was stupid. definitely a lot of good stuff in here that the average guy should know about dating women casually, intimately, and what to say to a girl you've just met.

A Winner,
By A Customer
This review is from: Make Every Girl Want You (Paperback)
I have just finished the book and found it to be well-written and to the point. The examples given really helped to illustrate the concepts. I plan to start using the CCR techniques immediately and expect to have very little spare time soon. Although the theory in the book may be known to all men, the authors have presented it in a well-organized, fun and easy-to-read style. I wish I had thought of this idea first and had written this book!

Better than trying to pick up women in bars approach.,
By A Customer
This review is from: Make Every Girl Want You (Paperback)
The problem with picking up women in bars and other places is that even if you are successful and get all the sex you want from them, there probably won't be anything else after the sex as far as a long term relationship. Man (or woman) does not live by sex alone, he is also a social animal that needs other human beings to relate to. What I like about the CCR approach is that it makes you a very emotionally attractive man to women that normally beleive that men are mostly interested in them for sex. For my part, I would rather have sex with a woman that I respect as a person, than sex with a strange woman I met at a bar that may have more sexual partners than I could count.

too bad there isn't a zero stars option,
By A Customer
This review is from: Make Every Girl Want You (Paperback)
This book was a big waste of time/money. The premise of the book is make friends with girls, be their therapist/doormat and wait for them to "attack" you for relationship/sex. Been there done that. I have had many close female friends over the years and have done ALL the things this book said to do/ not do. I have never had one of them EVER "attack" me. Instead, they continued to treat me like the doormat/therapist/friend and go out with the more aggressive types. Buy a REAL book like "Nice Guys and Players" by Rom Wills

I was curious,
By A Customer
This review is from: Make Every Girl Want You (Paperback)
Most of the reviews seem to be written by one person. Grab a free email address and setup an amazon acct... hmmm not so hard.But I was curious enough to read this book at brick and mortar bookstore. I think most of the reviews are bogus. Here's my background... married when I was 25..divorce at 25 too. Before my wife I had ZERO game with women. After my divorce I met a few women and came into my own. I have been extremely blessed since then. It is my opinion that this book is pretty much worthless for actually "scoring". It sounds crude, but look at the title of the book... that's why men are buying this book. Bottom line, the author tells men to sit back and wait. Be the nurturing friend and you'll get laid when she comes around. That's a joke. A woman wants a man, not a sneak theif. Or you can sit and wait... and maybe.. one day if you are lucky, she'll realize what a great catch you are /sarcasm

Great Advice, Great Fun,
By Nick T "nixlimited" (San Diego, CA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Make Every Girl Want You (Paperback)
I have to admit, not only are the ideas in this book infallible, but it is just good fun to read. I enjoyed the book so much that I made it through the 140+ pages in just under two-hours. You don't need to be single to enjoy this book either. While I have had great success with women in my life, I found that reading this book really made me question my approach and enlightened me as to why I have experienced occasional shortcomings in "game". The best part is, my girlfriend loves the book too because the advice in this book can be considered, well, girl friendly. This book comes highly recommended for its great advice and good clean...well maybe not so clean...fun. Read this book then come join the men of the CCR.

Waste of Money,
By A Customer
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Make Every Girl Want You (Paperback)
Get any other book than this one (How to succeed with women - Louis, Copeland). This is 200 pages of large font and useless info you already know. I read it in 45 minutes and I'm a slow reader. It's for people who already have a large circle of friends. Yes, your friends who are girls can hook you up with their friends. Duh. The content of the book is nothing like what you would expect from the title. I'm pretty pissed actually that I paid money for this.
