ACT Like a Lady, Think Like a Man: What Men Really Think about Love, Relationships, Intimacy, and Commitment by Steve Harvey
3.0
Yes I listened to this 5 hours audio book in a lonely afternoon. I know some people said this book was misleading and full of conceit of a fool. Yet I found it helpful. As a little girl, I wasn't taught how to be a lady. Growing up I realized my mom also suffered from the same low self-esteem problem I found myself in now. I don't blame her for not teaching me how to be lady-like. Instead she taught me what she was good at - how to fight, how to survive, how to be on your own as a woman. So now no matter how much I suffer, I could always stand up because that's what I have always been doing. Like they said "Stop complaining and go get the knowledge you think you need". Here I am reading about the basics of what to expect in relationships and from the potential partner. How long to wait. What to do. What to ask. What to expect. When to move on. For my broken self-esteem and survival skills have always been pushing me to fight for what I want and not to acknowledge what I already have. This book helps me appreciate myself as a young lady. Although I doubt that I gonna keep this as a bible, it helps reassure me that I'm enough and as a woman, I could sit back, relax and let the man do his hunting job, and for the first time in my life, make me believe that at least for this battle, I am not the one to fight.

I'm filled with mixed feelings now. Of course I'm happy with the ending but how people rejoice when girls get married put me off a little bit. Yes it was written hundred years ago. But still... Elizabeth is more than a good wife i believe. I'm looking forward to seeing her being something more. Still love the ending. Love Lizzy. I would give it 4.5 if that was an option.

It's just beautiful. Wise words from a wise man. It was such a pleasant to listen to his lessons.
