Talking A Great Book

For all of the ladies out there...

I just purchased the best book. Every last one of the ladies out there needs to buy it. It is enlightening and life changing.

It's called "He's just not that into you".

If you listen to ANYTHING I say, listen to this. Go buy the book. It will change your life, and make you laugh in the mean time.

Hey Stacie,

I heard the author of that book talking on a radio station, kikzy, 96.5 I think. It sounded really good. He was a trip. Thanks for the tip.

Hugs,

Traci

Thumbs up Good Advice

Stacie:

I haven't read the book, but I totally agree with the concept. I spent half of my adult life trying to convince the absolute worst men to love me. When I met a man who was "into me," I would reject him because I couldn't tolerate the kindness, love and affection. I know it sounds crazy, but it was true.

When I met my wonderful husband, he was "totally into me" and, of course, I tried to sabotage it. It took my brother and my daughter kickin' my butt to stick with it...and it finally "clicked." After TWO YEARS, I finally became comfortable with the fact that it's okay to have a man love me unconditionally, to be "into me," and be committed for the long haul.

For those of us who have a history of abuse in relationships, accepting love is a very difficult lesson to learn. But it's well worth the work.

Congratulations on finding a man who's "into you." I wish you only the best!
