What's the book about? Well ... I humorously review how men basically became so inept at developing our relationships with others. I then introduce some of the things that men can do to improve themselves and their relationships. Through simple observations and through personal experience, it seemed to me that men in general have simply lost their way on the path to learning how to be a man and how to romance a woman. This, however, isn't man's fault per se; we have had poor role models in this area mostly because our role models were lost also and as is often the case, when a man gets lost, he won't ask for directions. When we as a species do not know what to do, we will generally do nothing at all - the proverbial deer in the headlights mentality. For too long now men have been these deer locked in the relationship headlights. For years, we have stood frozen in the middle of the highway with relationships barreling down on us like semis set loose on an interstate - horns blaring with headlights as bright as supernovas - we have been too afraid to move forward into the unknown all the while knowing that the past has not worked for us either. We have simply not known what to do, so we have done nothing and quite frankly this approach has not worked for us either. Enjoy the humor but don't miss the message -- it is time for men to continue on their evolutionary path. It is time for men to develop into Alpha Men - understand communication, know that if your wife wants to dance then dance, romance your wife as you cook her dinner, and learn to listen. An enjoyable experience for both men and women.
