About

Where has the heat in my relationship gone? Why doesn't the attraction last? Why do we argue over the silliest things? And why are we still together? If this train of thought sounds familiar, this book is for you. Bestselling author Philip Van Munching and psychotherapist Dr. Bernie Katz have teamed up for a fascinating look at the psychological forces that shape our relationships.
Even early childhood experiences can eventually dictate our love choices, creating unconscious elements in our personalities that both attract and repel our partners. Here are the tools to help you evaluate your relationships, recognize roadblocks, repair damage, and even decide whether a relationship is simply beyond help.
Woven with personal anecdotes and told in a conversational tone, this is a funny, warm, readable relationship book. Authors Note
