Every woman, married or single, must read this book! 
2007-06-22
I'm not a big book reviewer or anything, but when I was online and read some of the reviews on 7 Things He'll Never Tell You, I was so flabbergasted that I just had to write a review myself. Some of the reviewers called this book old-fashioned and said that Dr. Leman's methods require the woman to sacrifice herself, become a doormat, and bear the brunt of the weight of the relationship in order to keep a man on the string. They couldn't be MORE WRONG. Who wouldn't want a guy who adores you, listens to you, respects you, is a great dad, and willingly helps you around the house? I'm married, a mom, as well as a career woman, and have read several other Dr. Leman books, like Sheet Music, First-Time Mom, and The Birth Order book, and have found each one absolutely fascinating and intensely helpful because it always provided "a fresh take" that I hadn't seen anywhere else. 7 Things He'll Never Tell you is witty, practical, and helped me instantly get inside my husband's head and heart...to find out what's most important to him. It takes so little to make your guy happy, so why not do it? I'd rather have my husband for a lifetime than suffer the fate of so many of my girlfriends, who are going through divorces and one-night stands now because of the years they wanted life to be "all about them" instead of being willing to do little things for your guy that have a really big pay-off--a great marriage! Five, ten, twenty years down the road, I don't have to guess who'll be happier--my girlfriends or me. I already know, because I've seen the wonderful changes, in just three weeks, in my husband's and my relationship after reading this book. Every woman, married or single, should read 7 Things He'll Never Tell You. You'd be dumb not to.
The goofy picture of the girl on the cover

makes it difficult to take this book seriously. After seeing the author interviewed on television, I bought the book. I had read The Birth Order Book years prior. One of the reviewers wrote, "a little sexist." A little sexist? He uses archaic and immature language throughout his book such as, "hubby," "guy," and I can't count the times he referred to women's "crabby time of the month." I endured reading the book trying to glean some information anyway. I came away with only a few new ideas. He refers to "The Five Love Languages" by Gary Chapman. Do yourself a favor and read that one instead. Leman has quite a dossier and many of his book titles sound interesting. However, I'm hesitant to read more of his work and can't imagine people paying to see him speak in the 21st century. Sorry. :{
Will change your relationship!!! The BEST! 2007-06-13
What a great book! I was one of those women who thought I knew it all! I did know most of the things that Dr. Leman talked about in the book but there were several things that really hit home to me that I had never thought about. Since I have been putting into practice the simple principles of this book, my husband has done a 180. I can't believe it! What a difference! I've told all my girlfriends to get this book and just this week I bought 3 copies and sent it to my college roommates. This book and Sheet Music are the two best books Dr. Leman even penned.
A little sexist...

This book does tell you how to make your husband happy, but it goes a little far sometimes. I want my man to be happy, but not at the cost of me being miserable. It seems like the author wants us women to forget about what we need or want and concentrate on making our men happy. Why can't we both be happy? Of course, this is just one woman's opinion -take it or leave it...
Great Read! 2007-05-11
I really appreciated this book. I have been married for 8 years and we have 2 little kids who take up all my time and attention. I read this book to try to get some of the focus on my husband and not ignore his needs. He is very supportive of me being home and focusing so much on the kids, but I realized I needed to focus on him too. This book said what my husband doesn't come out and tell me what he needs or wants, but I know are truly important to him and our marriage! I highly recommend it.
Relationship book 2008-05-25
This is a very good book, although it pretty much tells you what you already know - men want sex and they are all little boys at heart. Although this does tell you how to say things so that men hear music instead of nagging. Very helpful.
For MEN too! 2008-05-15
I'm not sure who enjoyed this more, or who laughed more - my husband or me! Definitely something to listen to together because he will SO agree with the author and my husband appreciated that I was interested in how his mind works. I highly recommend for couples in any and every stage of marriage - from unhappy to delirious, from newlywed to long-timers.
not helpful

I agree with the reviewer who said this same material is covered better in the book "For Women Only". I found that book to be much clearer and presented better without making vague generalizations about men. Also, I found Dr. Leaman's book would lump all men together and assume they were married and not struggling with fidelity, addictions or anger issues. However, I'v enjoyed his other book "Sheet Music".
It's okay 2008-02-18
Many of the other reviews were quite positive for this book. While I have enjoyed parts of it, overall I have felt like the book was just okay. The author makes men seem quite immature, which I don't think is exactly true. :) For this type of book, I preferred the book For Women Only. That author also wrote For Men Only, so that one can see both sides to the situation. In 7 Things it seems like he doesn't even acknowledge the other side of the relationship, which is important and could be addressed at least in another book. Also, there are parts of this book that seem more aimed at men as opposed to the women reading. If you don't read much, then I wouldn't recommend this book.
Things you HAVE to know 2008-02-12
This was a terrific book. Not having a brother or father around, reading this book truly helped me in my relationships with ALL of the men in my life, not just romantic interests. A must buy for all women who want to have a happier marriage!
