Originally published as an e-book that became a controversial media phenomenon, No More Mr. Nice Guy! landed its author, a certified marriage and family therapist, on The O'Reilly Factor and the Rush Limbaugh radio show. Dr. Robert Glover has dubbed the "Nice Guy Syndrome" trying too hard to please others while neglecting one's own needs, thus causing unhappiness and resentfulness. It's no wonder that unfulfilled Nice Guys lash out in frustration at their loved ones, claims Dr. Glover. He explains how they can stop seeking approval and start getting what they want in life, by presenting the information and tools to help them ensure their needs are met, to express their emotions, to have a satisfying sex life, to embrace their masculinity and form meaningful relationships with other men, and to live up to their creative potential.

Throughout your life, chances are you’ll meet amazing people with pure intentions. But you will also meet self-absorbed ones, which seek their best interests at heart. Everybody loves the first category and loathes the other. For this reason, and for moral purposes, we are all trying to seem nice to everyone and do no harm, right?Well, that’s the way it should be! However, some men tend to overdeliver when it comes to being nice by inhibiting their personality to avoid conflict. When being good to people implies harming yourself, it becomes an issue. While kindness is a positive characteristic, seeking validation from others is a toxic trait that should be eliminated at all costs. The techniques explained in No More Mr. Nice Guy by Robert A. Glover can teach you how to stop overpleasing people, build a stronger character, and avoid having others take advantage of you. Now, this doesn’t mean that the book will have you become a cold-hearted individual with no intention of doing good. But it will definitely reshape your idea of what being nice to people consists of.
