Came across this book on facebook after spending a heap of time and money looking for answers to my marriage/ intimacy issues for a couple of years without any change. The title and front cover hits you right where it hurts cause it's honest, raw and real. I bought the audio version and listened to it in a couple of days at work and driving. As many men say, it's sounds like it was written about me.... It is full of hard hitting truths about exactly what I have been doing wrong for my entire relationship and even some of the previous bad relationships too. I started implementing some of the changes as recommended and I could literally see the difference within a couple of weeks. I have listened to the book again several times since then over the last 12 months and am still a massive work in progress but I know with this book, DSO, the private facebook group (and now website) and also the amazing bunch of men within this community I am well on my way to being the best version of me that the wife desires and wants. Thank you DSO, the coaches and all the men in the community for taking me on a ride of enjoyment and learning over the last 12 months.

I stumbled upon this book after weeks of forced/sympathy sex with my husband. We actually have consistent, often enjoyable sex, but obviously not as much as he'd like. He does the 4 steps: lay down, over sex touch, say how much he loves me, boom...asks for sex. Such a turn off. There were some harsh truths in this book for me, but damn it, I wish my husband would stumble upon it too. Great read, even for wives who need to hear the truth.

I’m over 40 and married for nearly 20 years. I wish someone had given me this book as a wedding present. The author presents recognisable situations, thoughts and actions I’m sure many of us can relate to. We “husbands” try our best and get it thrown back at us, left wondering where did I go wrong. Our wives don’t want a nice guy/good dad and husband they want a strong, confident lover. This book gives a simple map to that destination that will not only improve your marriage but also improve you for your benefit and those around you - I highly recommend this book, even if you don’t think you need it you probably do....good luck

Absolutely eye opening. Came for the title and flashy cover only to realize the book contained wisdom that should have been taught to me from a young age and would have save me valuable time and energy. Instead of learning how to deal with a midlife crisis, I could have avoided it from the beginning.

I've read many interesting, inspiring and eye opener books. This one was different, I started over reading as soon as I finished it - twice. You understand the problem (yourself) and the book gives clear steps on how to fix it. I'm in the early stages but I know it's the right path.

This should be handed to every guy as he walks down the aisle after saying his vows. Required reading gentlemen. I cannot over state this.

I read this book in April 2020, myself and my marriage are completely different today (September 2021). It took time, hard work, patience, and the support of fellow men in the Facebook group to get here and I’ll never go back to who I was. My marriage is 100x better and we have sex all the time now, and much better sex than before. I suggest this book to just about every guy I know, it was life changing for me in a lot more ways than just my bedroom.

I came across this book because I was in a dead bedroom and needed some help. I highly recommend reading and following the advice in it to any men in a DB situation. Even if you don’t have a DB following Dad Starting Over’s advice will help you to be a better man, and may prevent one.

Although I am a woman in a non-married, non-monogamous relationship, I still took a lot from this book and will definitely recommend it to my friends and partners. First off, the voice and style of the writing was super refreshing and the narration was awesome. I appreciated the swearing and casual language, because it was really relatable and down to earth (also really funny at times!). The points made in the book were very insightful and although not "common sense", they made a TON of sense and I totally agree, even with the parts that said "don't listen to your woman" (haha!). I think this information can be beneficial to anyone with an open mind, who wants to know where improvements can be made in their relationship(s) to lead to more and better sex. It was a quick and painless read, and I will definitely be passing it on!

I credit DSO for changing who I am as a person as well as saving my marriage. I thought the lack of sex was my wife’s problem, but I was the problem. I made all the mistakes referred to in chapters 2 & 3 of the book on a weekly basis. I was never taught what my wife ACTUALLY wants out of a good husband. Instead of following the MGTOW or RedPill communities that hate on all women, I focused on myself. I followed the suggestions in chapter 4 of the book exactly for three months. That is when I noticed the change of the dynamic of our relationship was reversed. Changing myself for the better led to my wife making positive changes as well. We are a more solid couple now in year 17 of being together than when we first dated. Now I focus on living my life in Chapter 6 and not slipping back into my old ways. I recommend listening to the audio book 4-5 times a year until you are able to teach other men this stuff.

As the title states, the book is designed to give the reader the blueprints for more sex.... For me, this book was so much more than that. This book got me off my ass, off the couch, and into a more active life... I had been married, one child, and full dad mode... She was full mom mode... I had sold off all of my hobbies because I thought it was the “right” thing to do.. Well, doing all of that led to both me, and my wife becoming boring people.. Who not only didn’t have much to talk about, but also didn’t like each other very much... For me, this book was my wake up call.. To be the man I use to be... Being that man was interesting, he was fun, happy and always smiling... That improved my wife’s view of me. It made her attracted to me again... I started doing things for me, because I wanted to, and encouraged her to do the same... The result is a second child, stronger, healthier marriage than ever before... Wasn’t without its bleak moments, wasn’t without frustration... I go back and listen to this book from time to time, it also led me to read other books which furthered my understanding of psychology behind sexuality in long term relationships... Wouldn’t trade it for the world.

This book hit me right between the eyes. My wife and I were doing okay in our marriage, but things were going south. Picked up this book and listened to it in a few sittings. Within a few weeks, my marriage was back on track and hotter than it ever has been. Six months later, and our marriage keeps getting better and better.

this was a great read by author dso. it explains simply a lot on how to keep your long-term relationship or marriage going when you've hit a wall. never stop being that lover that your significant other needs. Every Man should read thus book; tons of gems inside.

DSO nails it when explaining why our wives cut us off in the bedroom. His lessons aren’t so close to home for me, I had to wonder if he was living invisibly in our guest room the past five years! Not only a terrifically informative and accurate handbook, Dead Bedroom Fix is highly motivational. I only just finished reading, but I’m eager as hell to get to work on everything DSO spells out to try and get my marriage out of the toilet and back in the bedroom. Thanks for this magical tome DSO - fingers crossed.

Loved the book. Have listened to it three times. The 5 mistakes outlined in the book is very eye opening and helpful in trying to figure out what is going on in ones relationship.

I can't say enough good things This is a life-changing book and a must read for any married man. If you are married is healthy stable with an awesome sex life or if your marriage is struggling and hanging on its last thread. either way, this book is a must read for any married man. our wives do not want a wimp as a husband. while listening to this book I asked myself a question: If my wife were single would she find me attractive? In some ways I know that she would but not attractive in the way that she did when she was dating me. What this book taught me was that I still have to be that man. I have to play the role of a man who is worthy of that love and affection. sitting around, gaining weight, farting and burping, stuff needs to be done around the house but I'm not doing it...reminding her when I do the laundry or when I do the dishes as if I'm expecting some brownie points. no no no. none of that anymore. when I do the dishes, when I mow the lawn, when I do the laundry, when I clean the garage, I don't mention any of it to her. It's for me. I'm doing it for me because I'm the one improving. It's amazing how this book has ripped through the veneer and the lie that I've been telling myself for the last 20 years in just 3 hours.

it was definitely needed and will always be a part of my life. thank you.

You are not special. Your situation is not unique. DSO has described the mechanisms occurring in thousands of marriages that crest dead bedrooms. I laughed out loud through the entire audiobook as DSO described my entire marriage. This book is the hard truth.

I wish someone would have given me this 10 years ago, would have completely changed my marriage.
