Summary: A better understanding of why relationships work or do not.
Review: This book has explained in an intelligent manner why some relationships struggle. It gives an honest and sometimes brutal opinion of people. I was surprised to find out that the way family and friends react can impact and even help destroy a marriage. My wife left me and I know she was supported through this when her friends could have pushed her to get help. Instead, they told her things would be okay without giving her reasons why things would be okay. They were there for her for themselves. Dont get me wrong, I accept my responsibility for our struggles 50-50 but did not get a chance to fix my marriage soon enough. I still have some hope. If your marriage is struggling read this and have your spouse read this. Have your family read this. Dont let anyone impact your marriage without some intelligent thought behind their words.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Unorganized and outdated
Review: This book has some good points, but it is poorly organized. There is alot of fluff and psychobabble that detracts from the message of the author. The only thing I came away with from this book was that friends and family can make you lean towards divorce in that they want you to be happy and sometimes reinforce separating or divorce inadvertently.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A better understanding of why relationships work or do not.
Review: This is a great book. Not much in American Society deals with this side of Divorice. This was one tangible book that helped our marriage several years ago. I highly recommend it to anyone contemplating Divorice.

Summary: Had some insightful information
Review: Very interesting. I found the information about "helpful friends" right on the nose. Friends can inadvertantly lead you to divorce by just agreeing with everything you say. I think this happened with my husband... he had a woman (affair partner) who sympathized with how he was feeling every step of the way which supported how he was feeling and lead him to think divorce was the best option (even though I constantly offered to go to counseling). It is a happy ending though - he eventually saw the light after filing for divorce and separating for 8 long weeks. Still have a lot to work through, but he doesn't realize how this OW's support helped him leave his family. Men can be so easily manipulated sometimes! Sorry guys, but you can be putty in a woman's hands - and the funny thing is - my husband swears he made his mind up on his own! This book explains how people in turmoil would think that their friends are just being good listeners, but it's support from well-meaning friends that can lead you astray.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Okay, let's try this
Review: Yes, counselors tell women to find themselves when they are not trying to seduce us themselves. Our friends think dunping on our man is supportive. No one even suggest counseling together. So read this, and for a happy ending read Ken Agori's Defenders of the Holy Grail!!
