This book has shed a lot of light into my life. Before I read The Secret of Loving, I did not understand what it really meant to love. I did not understand how to have a mature love. But this book has shared tremendous insights about love into my life. It has totally changed my love relationship. The book has taught me how to love, even though I do not feel like loving. It is an exceptional book, and I would recomend it to you if you are single and trying to figure out what true love is all about. I also think this book could help troubled marriages.

As a male, I have to admit that I was a little embarrassed walking around with a copy of a book called "The Secret of Loving." Now that I've got that off my chest, I have to say that I enjoyed the book. I always enjoy when a book explicity points out something that common sense tells you is right, but you've just never really thought of before (not seeing the forest through the trees)or gives you new ways of thinking about things. McDowell's book does just that.

I think that when people get into a "funk" and aren't dating or what have you, they begin asking the question, "what's wrong with me?" McDowell refuses to focus on this, pointing out that God loves you, there are good things about you, look at what's right with you. This point and the point that (I'll explian by example) if you are attracted to neat and tidy people, you probably wont attract them if you're appearance is sloppy are two of the points of the book that stick out the most. It's not one of those books that's going to change your life, but it's easy reading and worth your time. Recommended.

I've been through multiple relationships and counseling, this book would have saved me many tears. The best book I have ever read that teaches how to select a forever soul mate, and enjoy that relationship to the fullest!

This book was great. It showed me a lot of things that I needed to let God to change.
