Customer Reviews Average Rating: Rating: - Patronizing I bought this book hoping for the best, but could not honestly respect an author who talked about the need to "deprogram" her significant other and presented her material in such a "Cosmo Girl" way. Perhaps the second half of the book redeemed the work, but I personally couldn't finish it. Rating: - This book is not for mature women I found this book to be terrible. Seeing that Fram was the editor of both Seventeen and Cosmo, it's no wonder that this book read like a shi**y magazine article. Fram spends most of the book trying to convince her readers that Divorced Men are helpless and need a woman's touch to "save" them, and that "the X" is a manipulative monster who is out to get the reader and detroy lives. There is nothing in this book for those of us whom wish to build healthy relationships - not just with ...

I can't stress ENOUGH that marrying a divorced man with children, a crazy ex wife and alimony payments is a big freaking deal and that a woman needs to be smart and prepared. That said, this book will help prepapre you for some of the seemingly unbelievable scenarios you will face. I recommend it as a starting point for a woman in the early blissful days of a relationship. You'll need the perspective before ...

It has helped me relate to my own boyfriend better. However, Fram uses the same 2 women as examples in the book who are dating divorced men with similar situations. It would have been nice to include an example of a man who has joint-custody (that is, 50/50) since it is on the rise as well as one who only has custody for 6-8 weeks over the summer. Rating: - Decent book Fram's book addresses many of the challenges women face when they marry a divorced man, including his guilt and residual divorce pain, his children, his ex, money, and bringing a new child into the marriage. Fram's take is humorous and geared more toward women who have jobs and have not had children yet. She takes a "modern" view that encourages women to tolerate less baloney than other books I've read on this subject. For these reasons, this book is worth reading and decent overall. However, ...
