Excerpt
So, your thinking of getting married. If you're a woman, you've probably combed through countless bridal magazines for the perfect dress, but have you really looked carefully to make sure that your intended is as right for you as that designer gown?
Just as you wouldn't buy a car or a house without first doing a little research, you certainly don't want to buy into a marriage before you're sure your partner is the right one for you.
You want to avoid the a stressful relationship that could nibble away at your self esteem and cause serious problems along the way. You prefer the nourishment a satisfying marriage can provide.
The wisdom gleaned from many years of treating distressed couples led me to develop materials to determine emotional readiness for marriage, compatibility, and willingness to resolve conflicts. These materials which have been incorporated into this book contain in-depth personality and relationship quizzes, a list of typical situations couples confront and effective communication and conflict resolution skills applicable to personal and professional life.
