"Catch Him And Keep Him" Review

As part of my long running effort to answer the frequently asked question "How do you keep a man?" I have started going through the popular self help books for women. Today I finished reading "Catch Him And Keep Him" by Christian Carter.

There is one thing I'm sure of - the author knows what women want to hear. If this guy isn't a white knight, I don't know who is.

Here are some of my favourite extracts.

• Most men are idiots when it comes to dating and relationships, so don’t expect him to “get it” the way you do.
• I’m not saying that all the men out there are incapable, but most of us are “handicapped”.
• When it comes to figuring out what we want with women and when we want it—we’re hopeless.
• For the woman, who is more in touch with her feelings and comfortable with emotional intimacy [blah blah blah]
• Successful long-term relationships have the dynamic that the woman is “in control” of what happens.
• Women and mothers often have the final word as the matriarch in a family setting.
• Some men view picking up women as a sort of game. (Sad, but true)
• Men who are into picking up women do it because the challenge of picking up a woman validates their intense need to feel important, powerful, and attractive.
• Man approaches woman. Woman tests man for specific qualities. Man passes or fails tests through demonstrations. Woman accepts or rejects man.
• The simple fact is that men, unlike most women, are not naturally well equipped and ready for relationships.
• Don’t ask me why men are this way. They just are.

This guy claims to have been with "plenty of women".

Perhaps he is a genius who understands female psychology so well that he has written a feel good book for them while internalising the exact opposite of what he preaches.

You never know.
