Mistake #16: Keep your appearance up…women want their men to look good too. Fellas, we know how much emphasis you guys put on your woman’s appearance. You want us to look good because we are representing you when we’re in public. You love it when other men find your woman attractive. Well, guess what? We do too. For some reason you all think that getting a gut and a receding hairline is just a part of your package. Hello! I can’t count the number of times I’ve heard men say, “My woman gained so much weight during her pregnancy and she just doesn’t turn me on any more. If she didn’t have a gut I could work with her.” Give me a break. First of all, she gained weight carrying your child. She accepted the fact that her body was going to go through an entire metamorphosis and she handled it with grace. Now, she’s thirty to forty pounds overweight and you’re complaining. But get this, you’re complaining while sporting a fifty pound gut and a golf course for a haircut. Do you think for one minute that we like your gut? Here’s a wake up call, “We don’t, but we love you!” Our love is not so fickle that it changes just because your appearance changes slightly. Shoot, we’d love to see your old 6-pack or 4-pack. Hell, we’d settle for a 2-pack. For all of you men flaunting the ninth hole on top of your head…CUT IT OFF AND GO BALD! Why are you trying to hold on to half a head of hair? Get over it. Can you imagine if women walked around with their guts hanging over their belts and half a head of hair? I can already hear the men screaming in excitement, “Man, get a look at her gut. Damn, she’s hot!” “No man, that one over there with the receding hairline is on fire!” NOT. All kidding aside, take care of yourself. Start eating healthier and incorporate an exercise program. Once a month, go and get a pedicure and manicure. We like attractive feet and hands. In essence, remember that we want you to look good too. It makes us smile when you can turn heads, not just ours.

About the Book
Think Like a Man…and here’s a thought: Start Acting Like a Man The 25 mistakes men make that prevent them from finding and keeping true love This is the perfect companion book to Steve Harvey’s book Act Like a Lady. There are hundreds of books written for women on how to find a man. Yet, very few books that address the critical things that men do or don’t do that prevent relationships from thriving and going to the next level. One of my personal goals is to promote marriage, and to help people stay in love. When Steve Harvey wrote the book Act Like a Lady, Think Like a Man, millions of women flocked to purchase a book that was going to show them how to get a man. To be perfectly honest with you, I didn’t realize the magnitude of how naive we were as women when it came to men. However, I was equally disturbed by the fact that no one was addressing what men needed to do to rectify this relationship thing. Relationships don’t simply fail because of women; men play a vital role too. I could have easily written one hundred mistakes that men make, but I chose to focus on the twenty-five mistakes that I hear repeatedly from married and single women. It is my hope, that this book will cultivate a more balanced conversation between men and women. More importantly, that this book will shed some light for men on their own relationships and that they will begin to take the necessary steps to foster and create the ultimate love.
