Confessions of An Ex-Bachelor

The popular relationship guru blows the whistle on perpetual bachelors, with wise words for women seeking nuptial-minded men.

A male radio host once chided William July for being so open about the playboy mentality. "Man, stop giving away all of our secrets to the women," the host said. But July, who has been happily married for six years, believes that this kind of secrecy and game playing is harmful to everyone. A self-proclaimed former "General in the Bachelor Corps," July now openly reveals the tricks of the bachelor trade to help women find guys who are genuinely ready for commitment.

Confessions of an Ex-Bachelor delivers no-nonsense dialogue on:

The three stages of bachelorhood, and how to tell whether your date will ever graduate past groom-a-phobia
How to hold your man accountable and stand your ground -- without making him feel trapped
Overcoming cultural cues that make men see marriage as a life in chains
Where to find your future groom
How to translate a bachelor's double-talk
Getting past the stereotypes of divorced men, "nice guys," and how men feel about being stepfathers.

A must read for every single woman who wonders what her guy is really thinking, Confessions of an Ex-Bachelor is full of revelations and rewarding advice.

Confessions of an Ex-Bachelor

Chapter One

1 Why Buy the Cow When You Can Get the Milk for Free?

He can have loyalty. He can have financial sharing or support. He can have children. Truth be told, he can have anything that a married man can get without making the commitment. This is especially true if he's a highly desirable man who knows how to play a good Don Juan act. What's happening is that men are realizing they can have everything without making a commitment, and that's exactly what some of them are doing. Marriage has become mainly an issue of responsibility and accountability, or lack thereof, for the man.

Limited Responsibility and Accountability

I really enjoyed the film Love and Basketball, and it perfectly illustrates a point about men not learning to be accountable for their own feelings and actions in a relationship. There was a climactic scene (no, not the strippoker-style one-on-one game!) in which Monica challenged Q to a game of one-on-one for his heart.
