Which one is right to choose for your relationship, and which one should you avoid? You can find out by reading on. We also have a book review for couples.
Alicia Munoz, No More Fighting
Alicia Munoz's No More Fights is an insightful guide to save a relationship. This book addresses 52 issues that are common in relationships: gender roles, communication obstacles, love languages and communication blockages. It provides strategies and exercises to help you solve these problems and keep your relationship on track. Each chapter includes an example of how a couple saved their marriage. This book will help you get out of arguments and relationships stagnation.
Gary Chapman’s The 5 Love Languages
Gary Chapman's The Five Love Languages For Couples is a popular book, but it has some flaws. First, it doesn't adequately describe the consequences of these languages. The author is a valuable source of knowledge but his book also undervalues sacrifices and the need for healing toxic relationships. While the concept is helpful in the end, it should not be taken lightly. This book may not prove useful to those in abusive relationships.
Don Miguel Ruiz Jr. 'The Seven Principles for Making Marriage Work'
Don Miguel Ruiz Jr.'s new book focuses upon making love a habit. It also teaches how to bring more intimacy into your relationships. Intimate relationships are battlefields. Our personal demons, insecurities and fears stand in the way for true love. Don Miguel's approach to love is to move from conditional to unconditional love - which is a transformational experience. Unconditional, unconditional love allows for greater freedom, deep intimacy and a great deal of honesty. It is essential for true happiness in a loving marriage.
Dr. John M. Gottman's Request for Connection
Dr. John M. Gottman's theory of relationship quality is based on the idea of bids. Bids are basically requests to connect. Bids can be large or small, verbal and nonverbal, serious, funny or both. It's not surprising that the bidding is one of many important aspects of building successful relationships.

FAQ
How can I stop being jealous of my ex-boyfriend's new girlfriend?
Jealousy does not make sense. It's unhealthy and it's very painful.
Jealousy is like poison. Once you swallow it, it starts eating away at you from the inside. You'll find yourself getting angry over nothing. You will lose your sleep over something that doesn’t even matter. You will spend money on useless stuff.
Worst of all is that you'll start to believe that your love is not worth it.
It is important to realize that jealousy does not always have to be bad. It can sometimes be healthy. When we're afraid of losing someone, when we're worried that our partner might leave us, when we're concerned about their safety - these are all normal feelings.
However, jealousy can become excessive when it overtakes our thoughts and causes us act in ways which hurt others. It's time to seek out help.
There are many types of therapy. Some focus on helping you develop better coping skills. Some teach you how better to manage your emotions. Some others will teach you how to communicate more effectively.
Whatever therapy you choose make sure it helps you to manage your jealousy.
What keeps a man from getting into a serious relationship?
Relationships can be dynamic. They change over the course of time. You must be able to change if you want someone to stay happy.
You need to be open to surprising and showing him how much it means to you. You should look for new ways to express yourself. You should learn to accept his imperfections and still love him.
What makes you feel loved? Do you feel loved? Or, is it something simple like being told how beautiful you are every day. Whatever it may be, you should try to give this to your spouse.
But don't focus only on material gifts. It's easy for lovers to get caught up buying expensive gifts. True love doesn't come down to how much money you spend on your partner.
Instead, it's determined by how much your care about them. And caring about someone doesn't cost anything at all.
My boyfriend wants to have sexual sex, but I refuse. What should you do?
Sex can be intimate. It requires trust between partners. It is very unlikely that the other person will enjoy it if they feel uncomfortable or unsafe.
If you are feeling anxious or scared, it's understandable to want to avoid sex.
But don't be afraid to hurt your boyfriend's feelings. Instead, talk to him about why you're hesitant.
Ask him if he feels you are ready for sex. Ask him what would make him comfortable.
Listen to him. Don't judge him solely on your emotions.
Relax if he states that he does not want to pressure or press you. If he insists that he wants to have sex with you, you will need to find a way to overcome those fears.
This could be as simple a matter of practicing safer sex. It might be as simple as talking to your doctor regarding birth control methods.
No matter what your choice, you deserve to be happy. If you worry about hurting your boyfriends feelings, you owe both of them a solution.
What are the things you need to prepare during a divorce?
Divorce can be a stressful experience.
The best way to ensure you stay financially stable during your separation is to plan ahead. You should ensure that you have enough cash to pay for living expenses when you separate.
You should also take steps to avoid financial hardship. A legal trust can be a way to protect your assets. It could also help you and your spouse jointly manage any property.
Another option is to open a separate bank account for your personal financial needs. You can also set up a separate bank account to protect your assets from creditors if you file for bankruptcy.
In order to avoid financial hardships, it is important to keep track on your spending habits. Take a list and break them up into categories, such as rent, utility bills, food, transportation, childcare, and so on.
This will help to understand your spending habits and identify areas where you might have the ability to reduce.
In planning for your future it is important to think about whether you would rather live alone, or with someone else. If you're considering moving to another state, it might be worth living with your friends or family members.
This will save you money on rent, and it will also make it easier to find a roommate. But you will miss the companionship and shared household responsibilities.
