If your partner drops you a bombshell buy it now October 24, 2008 S. Haresign (Nottingham) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
My wife dropped me a bombshell about our relationship after I was quite happily plodding along, within 3 weeks we were separated. If this has happened to you, this book goes a long way to explain why. It is the first real 'self help' book I have read and taken note of, I marked chapters as I read it, saving bits of information that I thought applied to us. Have given it to my wife now, not sure if she is reading it yet, I am hoping it will go some way towards saving my relationship and making it better, because the book does help you to understand why, she needs 'space', and some of the things which may be wrong. It does appear to show that couples with this kind of trouble are becoming the majority, when usually no one else is involved, although it does cover infidelity. It explains the different stages of a relationship, which you may never have known about, I know I didnt really although it all makes perfect sense, but you need to have fulfilled each stage and move on to the next otherwise there will be trouble, maybe from one person.
Nothing new August 8, 2008 Cardiff Reader (UK) 0 out of 5 found this review helpful
I bought this book because of the very good reviews. I found it heavy, tedious, boring and superficial - it failed to get underneath the real micro issues that are going on in failing or 'tired' relationships. The information it contains is pretty much the same as was being published 20 years ago, in my experience. The seven steps aren't rocket science and there's certainly no magic ingredient here, if you are expecting one. It does offer a structure for how to work on your relationship, if that's what you need and what you think might help you.
A MUST READ!!!! July 26, 2008 Kevin Hoque 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I read this book over a weekend and what an eye-opener it is!! I've been together with my handsome man for over 4 years. We've had excellent times and we love each other so much but that feeling of not being in love anymore was/is weighing us down. How could this be? We work so well together...or so i thought. Turns out we have been driving each other apart without ever really realising it and we had been shielding each other from truths for want of not to hurt the other person. If I had read this book a few years ago I wouldn't have been so stupid!! A relationships require honesty and hardwork on both sides. I realise now that both hard work and honesty have been sorely lacking in our relationship. Hopefully we still have time enough and love enough to use the lessons in this book to fix what we have, because I love my man dearly and I hope he still loves me. Only time will tell. So yes, this book is very good, well written, and a must for almost *anyone* in a serious relationship. The two of you deserve to be happy and I believe that the contents of this book will help you in this endeavour. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!
Will it really help you? November 3, 2007 Reggaeboy (England's West Coast) 14 out of 14 found this review helpful
Unfortunately for me it was too late when the book did arrive as my girlfriend called off the relationship. Much as my now ex thought it was absurd that a book was going to cure everything I found some good constructive advice and our own failings which was that we never argued properly instead tip toeing around each other. The book did reflect a lot that had gone on with us, and i feel both men and women will find something to aid them in their relationship. I particularly enjoyed it as it was written from a british perspective and was more grounded in reality rather than the 'alternative reality' we often see from across the pond. If your relationship is rock bottom try this book for a new angle, it is not a magic bullet just explains that 'smart' thinking may find you a path back to love again. I only wish we were together to tell you if the advice would of worked in practice...
Why didn't I find this earlier January 29, 2007 IXS (England) 37 out of 38 found this review helpful
This is a great book, almost every strategy in it makes perfect sense, whilst it seems to blame most relationship problems on childhood events; it accurately explains the science of what happens at every stage of a relationship. If your partner and you are still hanging on and working for a chance this book will almost certainly work for you, and even if it failed, you would end up not with a bitter estranged ex, but a life long friend. My regret is that I never found this book three years ago at a time when I know Mr Marshall's advice would certainly have worked for me.
