Overview - The NoNonsense Man

Overview

Have you ever looked skyward, after yet another frustrating encounter with a woman, yelling aloud: Why is she so impossible? Why can’t I figure her out? Where does all her female stuff come from? It’s pretty simple, actually.

You've heard from many sources that men and women are from different planets, and that, somehow, we must develop the patience to accept, celebrate, understand, and navigate these differences. Baloney, I say!

Do you want your life with her to be an endless game of chess? If you're like me, I doubt it.

I am Marc Rudov, The NoNonsense Man™. I contend that men and women are virtually the same and want the same things. Unfortunately, with layers of success-killing socialization applied to us from birth, we have been programmed for conflict. If you continue relating to women the way you were taught, you will be forever unsatisfied. If you continue sacrificing your principles and tolerating illogical nonsense for beautiful women, you will hate yourself. Why not put an end to your frustration?

The only way you can be happy in romance is to remove your layers of socialized behavior and find a woman who has done, or is willing to do, likewise. The Man's No-Nonsense Guide to Women: How to Succeed in Romance on Planet Earth™ (ISBN 0974501719) gives you unique dating advice and teaches you how. In addition, I recommend that you subscribe to my NoNonsense Dating Tips!

GAUGING YOUR RELATIONSHIPS

In my book, I say that you must gauge a relationship's future by its heartbeat, not its history or its potential. How do you gauge your relationships: exhausting or fulfilling? This is an easy, yet difficult, question to answer. Difficult because it requires you to take personal inventory, something most people hate to do. Easy because you have to look no further than your brain, your heart, and your gut. You know what you think and how you feel. You already have the answer.

FULFILLING RELATIONSHIPS

If you consider your relationships fulfilling, you are fortunate. But, if you find yourself moving from partner to partner, maybe your relationships aren't as fulfilling as you think. If you have been in a long-term, fulfilling relationship, great. But, remember: Every successful relationship, like every successful corporation, eventually hits a bump in the road or takes its eye off the ball -- usually because of feeling too successful and complacent. In other words, a "full" tank can make you lazy. Complacency kills. The Man's No-Nonsense Guide to Women: How to Succeed in Romance on Planet Earth can keep you on track.

EXHAUSTING RELATIONSHIPS

If you consider your relationships exhausting, you have lots of company. Why does this keep happening to you? You know the feeling: The emotional tank is "empty," and you and your mate know it. Look in the mirror; your reflection will tell the story. There are two possibilities: 1) fix your current relationship, if possible; or 2) find a new mate. Life is short, and there is no reason to feel exhausted and miserable. Suffering is a choice. The Man's No-Nonsense Guide to Women: How to Succeed in Romance on Planet Earth will help you make big, fundamental changes in your love life. Don't you owe yourself this happiness?

MIA RELATIONSHIP

If your relationship is MIA, or missing in action, it means you are not currently in a relationship. We've all been there, at one time or another. The question is, Are you alone more than you are coupled? The benefit of being alone is that it gives you a great opportunity to reassess who you are and what you want in a mate, to avoid mistakes of the past and explore more-sensible paths. The challenge of being alone too often or too long is that you can become cynical and give up. The Man's No-Nonsense Guide to Women: How to Succeed in Romance on Planet Earth is an excellent resource to help you on your new mission.

Excerpts

From the Introduction

Why do these mismatches occur with such frightening frequency? Why are so many people, whether dating or married, miserable? Why do we men find women so complicated and unfathomable, yet so irresistible? Why do so many encounters with them seem like endless games of chess? It is because, despite the professional, educational, athletic, social, political, and financial gains women have made since the 1950s, when it comes to relationships between the sexes, many women and men are still stuck, psychologically and emotionally, in that era.

From Chapter 1: Why Bother?

Whenever I have been in a relationship in which deep trust and healthy emotional intimacy were either missing or inadequate, I always felt stifled, closed, terribly unfulfilled, and unhappy -- knowing full well that the woman wouldn't be good for me. On the other hand, when a woman does fulfill my emotional needs, my whole world brightens. Women carry around this myth that we men do not have emotional needs, traditionally thought to be their sole province. They are badly misinformed. In fact, many women are totally incapable of sharing emotional intimacy, and men are severely hurting themselves by spending any time with them.

From Chapter 4: Are We Really from Different Planets?

My answer is NO; we are from the same planet: Earth! In fact, I believe men and women have few inherent differences. Both genders want to love and be loved, need and be needed, admire and be admired, respect and be respected, help and be helped, appreciate and be appreciated, communicate and be heard, protect and be protected, earn and share. We have the drive to achieve, procreate, and leave our legacies. We are, in fact, virtually the same beings with different plumbing.

From Chapter 7: The Octopus Tango

The biggest hurdle between men and women, I think, is being totally honest with themselves and with each other about their true needs, feelings, fears, expectations, likes, and dislikes. There are two fundamental reasons for this barrier. The first is the socialized programming -- the centerpiece of this book -- that drives gender-based behavior. The second is the pathetic inability of men and women to communicate with each other. Unfortunately, men are stereotyped as the culprits. This is pure rubbish: Most women I meet cannot communicate with men -- either because of fear or lack of practice, or both. It's as if men and women communicate mostly through, around, under, or over each other -- rather than to each other. How can they possibly build anything together without knowing how to be in synch? Indeed!

From Chapter 9: Go For It!

Both men and women are looking for a powerful way to break through outmoded social protocols. I hope you find that my way helps you achieve your breakthrough. I think you are now ready for the journey. Go for it! --

Accept my challenge! After reading The Man's No-Nonsense Guide to Women: How to Succeed in Romance on Planet Earth™, you will be an expert in identifying and avoiding nonsense in your relationships. What better way to test your knowledge and skills than to begin your quest to find that special, no-nonsense mate...right here. Remember to follow all the lessons in the book.
