Eight dates : essential conversations for a lifetime of love / John Gottman, PhD, Julie Schwartz Gottman, PhD, Doug Abrams & Rachel Carlton Abrams, MD.
Navigating the challenges of long-term commitment takes effort. The authors invite couples on eight fun, easy, and profoundly rewarding dates, each one focused on a make-or-break issue: trust, conflict, sex, money, family, adventure, spirituality, and dreams. Interactive activities and prompts provide motivation to stay open, stay curious, and, most of all, stay talking to each other. Discover-- or rediscover-- your partner like never before, and be able to realize your hopes and dreams for the love you desire and deserve. -- adapted from jacket
