What it may reveal to you, is that your current situation is beyond salvageable. It may make for a very uncomfortable experience in reflection and self-awareness."<br /><br />This was a key point for me. Athol makes it clear more than once that the male improvement plan may reveal to you that your wife isn't interested in solving your marital problems - maybe she just likes the material comforts, or likes you sucking up to her because you couldn't get another woman if you wanted to. Athol is deadly serious when he says that in that situation you have to think seriously about the life you want and (to use an Oprah term) deserve.<br /><br />But you won't discover that sort of impasse until you pump up your sex rank to its potential. In my last LTR, I procrastinated bringing up issues for a few months because I knew it might lead to its demise. I'm sure that's why a lot of men resist self-improvement, it could/will lead to an uncomfortable taking of stock of the situation.Badgerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16686233607698514927noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4256367009985298221.post-56028454058429514892011-04-22T17:00:14.010-07:002011-04-22T17:00:14.010-07:00Keoni, I discovered your blog via Roissy as well.

What happens if you have the type of parent(s) who would kill you for reading such a thing, or burn the book within an instance of finding it? I know I have such a mother. <br /><br />Anyways, I look for forward to reading this book someday, but not now. I am personally interested in marriage but will not be entering the dating scene for a while anyways.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4256367009985298221.post-45121991665971232102011-04-22T15:16:57.424-07:002011-04-22T15:16:57.424-07:00I just unwrapped the package that arrived a couple...I just unwrapped the package that arrived a couple hours ago. I look forward to reading this book, to see what I have correctly internalized over the last couple of years of reading your threads and Athol's blog, and where I still need to fine tune my approach.<br /><br />Thanks again to both of you, (and to Roissy, Vox and all the others).
