Unleash Your Irresistibility!
"Make Every Man Want You gives every woman the tools she needs to unlock her inner magnet."
--Kelly Ripa
"A must read for any woman who wants to awaken her most conscious, irresistible self . . . delivered in a brilliantly funny and accessible way."
--Gay Hendricks, Ph.D., author of Five Wishes and coauthor, with Kathlyn Hendricks, of Conscious Living
Let's make one thing clear: this book is like no other dating book you've read. There are no rules, no list of things to do to land a husband in thirty days, and no reason to blame yourself if “he's just not that into you.” Please. Throw those books away.
Instead, let's focus on you--and how you can make yourself more appealing to others in almost every situation--whether you have a man or not. Think of it as a crash course in desirability, a life-changing lesson in loving yourself inside and out. Once you embrace your unique qualities and dissolve your bad relationship habits, you'll be amazed to find how irresistible you are to others! This girl-friendly guide reveals:
- Five Truths Every Irresistible Woman Needs to Know
- Seven Habits of Highly Unattractive Women
- Eight Secrets of Attracting the Right Man for You

Overall, fantastic!
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 Lucky In Love, Lucky In Life: 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
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.
Not very good...
I was eagerly anticipating this book. I subscribe to Marie's email list and also have one of her workout DVD's. I even had the book rushed to my home. Unfortunately, I was not impressed. I wish I could say I was. The book was thin - more like a thick manual. I kept reading and reading - waiting for her to say something profound or thought provoking. Nothing. I thought some of her ideas were repetitive and even a little confusing at times. Her thoughts were often wordy. This may work for an amateur, but for those of us in our twenties and up, this is not a new concept. I thought it strange that her book wasn't being stocked at ANY bookstore. Only her website and Amazon. I fear that it just isn't good enough to have widespread availability. I would stick with relationship books by real experts.
