Self-Help Relationships
In his extraordinary
new book, Terrence Real, distinguished therapist and bestselling
author, presents a long overdue message that women need to
hear: You
aren’t crazy–you’re right!
Women
have changed in the last twenty-five years–they have become
powerful,
independent, self-confident, and happy. Yet many men remain
irresponsible and emotionally detached. They don’t know how
to respond
to frustrated partners who just want their mates to show up
and grow up.
Enter
the good news: In this revolutionary book, Real shows women
how to
master the new rules of twenty-first-century marriage by
offering them
a set of effective tools with which they can create the
truly intimate
relationship that they desire and deserve. He identifies five
non-starters to avoid and shares practical strategies for
bringing
honesty, passion, and joy back to even the most difficult
relationship.
Using his experience helping thousands of couples shift from
despair to
profound emotional closeness, Real guides you through the
process of
relationship repair with exercises that you can do alone or
with your
partner. With this program you’ll discover how to
-
identify and articulate your wants and needs - listen
well and respond generously - set limits, and stand up
for yourself - embrace and appreciate what you have
- know when to seek outside help
The
New Rules of Marriage will introduce you to a radically new
kind of
relationship, one based on the idea that every woman has the
power to
transform her marriage, while men, given the right support,
have it in
them to rise to the occasion.
We have never wanted so
much from
our relationships as we do today. More than any other
generation, we
yearn for our mates to be lifelong friends and lovers. The
New Rules of
Marriage shows us how to fulfill this courageous and
uncompromising new
vision.
