Story
No woman can change the reality that any man, no matter how interested or invested he may first appear, can potentially pull away and lose interest in her at some point. Although this is the reality, a woman can, in fact, change the way she deals with such situations. While you might not be able to control a man's behavior, you can control your own. Being in control of your emotions, especially when a man's behavior threatens your future with him, will make it easier for you to influence his heart and make him see you as an irreplaceable, high-value woman.

Story
Did you know that men secretly use texting as a way to "pre-screen" a woman’s romantic value? A woman’s texting habits can reveal a lot about her self-worth, confidence, intelligence, and even her level of class and emotional maturity. Because guys covertly appraise a woman’s relationship potential this way, many women often have no idea that the way they communicate via text is actually sending the wrong message and thus, they unknowingly end up chasing men away.

So when it comes to relationships, why can't these same women figure out what makes men commit? According to Steve, it's because they're asking other women for advice when they should be going directly to the source.

Men give their undivided attention to those who respect them. If a man doesn't feel respected while communicating with you, he'll find the respect he needs elsewhere. The woman who knows how to communicate with men can influence the man she wants without resorting to "that mini-skirt he loves." A man craves the attention of a graceful woman who knows exactly what to say to him, when to say it, and, most importantly, how to say it to get what she wants.

A guy who rejects or breaks up with you should no longer exist in your life. Contacting him or allowing him to stay in touch with you will make you work harder and harder to convince him that you’re worth his love and attention, and it will compel you to play that ugly and unwinnable game called Chase-a-Man. The best way to avoid this ugly game and break his spell over you is to cut the guy off (cease all communications and interactions) for a set period of time, or in some cases, keep him cut off out of your life indefinitely.

Rumination—obsessive thinking about an idea, situation, or choice that can interfere with normal life—is a common and destructive issue that can negatively impact romantic relationships. You may feel anxious, worried, hopeless, and frustrated, but even if you know your overthinking is a problem, it can be seriously hard to stop. In Stop Overthinking Your Relationship, certified couples therapist Alicia Muñoz draws from cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and mindfulness to offer an effective, four-step approach to reduce rumination and change negative thinking patterns.

Excellent Advice
Would you consider the audio edition of How to Cure a Commitment Phobic to be better than the print version?
It's a difficult thing being involved with a CP. I think she offers excellent advice. It is a lot easier to listen to than implement though. I hate the fact that women have to give up there desires for a man and that we have to do all the work, but being in my fifties it's exactly the way it is...I wish I had learned these lessons much sooner in life. Good relationship advice CP or not.

I am a CP
I thought I submit the following review to share with women my thoughts as a CP.
I am a CP ( commitmentphobic man).
I listened to this book on audible and agree with most of it. Her description of me as a card carrying CP is pretty spot on accurate. She knows my type. It took me many years to realize I'm a CP. I always though it was just a matter of finding " the right woman".
But my current the age of 71 I have never been married, engaged, lived with someone, or had any relationship longer than several months. I actually am very open now when I meet women and I tell them at the beginning my history and that I have always had trouble committing. When I was younger I didn't realize it. I just thought she wasn't " the right one" ( usually after we started getting more intimate) .
Nowadays I do not force them to try to pull that information out of me. I tell them. I do not push for sex. I let them decide if they want to get to know me. I don't consider myself a bad person for being a CP. I believe events from my childhood led me to be this way. But I think for some of us CPs it's not going to change. Dr Kelley discusses in her book about a manner of dealing with a CP that may change him. The operant word there is 'may'. For myself, I'm not sure if anything you do, how long you hold off on sex, how aloof you are, etc etc would change my inability to make a durable commitment over time. At some point the aloofness and holding off has to end. I'm speaking for myself, not saying it can't happen. The best I can do is try to be as honest as possible from the beginning and try not to hurt anyone. I've been told by some women I'm too honest. But I think it seems to be the right thing. Maybe women should assume all men are CP until proven otherwise.
Then again, maybe everything I say here would fly out the window if I met " the right woman" :)

A Good Read
I think Lynn's advice is wonderful, and she is very knowledgeable on the topic, as well. However, I believe the title is misleading. I don't believe the specific advice given can "cure a commitment phobic". I believe it is great advice for dating men that are afraid of commitment, and how to get them to commit better to a relationship, but a commitment phobic is a completely different story. The title is misleading, but her information is spot on about the characteristics of these types of men. A very good listen, as most of her books are. But, again, as many of her books are, the information is repetitive. HOWEVER, she is helpful and smart.

Bad D--k, Good Jane!

I don’t know what I would have done without this book when I was in too deep with a commitment phobic. Dr. Lyn has inspired me to use my inner strength to communicate with men in ways that get me the results I want. Thank you!!

Omg this was on the money!
It just didn’t talk about what a commitment phobe is or does, she goes in depth on how to handle every type of situation. You will feel great and in control after reading this. I just finished it and I’m about to start it all over until it’s pounded in my head and I know what to do without forgetting one thing.
