I must have read How To Be Irresistible To Men one hundred times. I really had to reinforce and embrace the fact that finding and attracting "the one" for me had everything to do with my getting a handle on my true self.
Simply put, attracting the RIGHT MAN is developing YOURSELF in the RIGHT DIRECTION.
I learned, and I now firmly believe, that intimately knowing yourself and what makes you tick is VITAL to attracting, getting and keeping the guy who is right for you and who is going to make you happy.
Yes, you can play all sorts of games to attract and lure a guy, but at the end of the day, if these games are not your GENUINE self, you can not keep up the facade. It is all based on a house of cards that is going to crash down eventually.
And, most important, this is NOT GOING TO MAKE YOU HAPPY LONG TERM. You want someone to share your life with because it is going to make you happy, right?
So, why attract the guy who isn't going to do that in the long term. Yes, you could play games and get someone to want you, but that doesn't mean he's going to LOVE THE REAL YOU.
Don't you want to spend your life with someone who really gets and loves the real you? Someone that will be easy for you to talk to and share with? That you don't have to hide from?
The truth is, you can study a man and"get him" and then play a game because you truly understand him and HIS wants, but this isn't going to make YOU happy because you don't yet understand yourself and what makes you truly happy.
I learned that if you really want genuine lasting love and a man who is in love with the REAL YOU, then you need to learn WHO the real you is.
Amy Waterman, who is the author of this book, is phenomenal at coaxing you to get at the heart of your core, and your true likes and dislikes. (It turns out, what I thought I wanted a guy was WRONG!) The book offers tons of quizzes and exercises that will really open your eyes and steer you along the right (but often surprising) path.
