Cracking the communication code between husband and wife involves understanding one thing: that unconditional respect is as powerful for him as unconditional love is for her. It's the secret to marriage that every couple seeks, and yet few couples ever find. While both men and women deserve both love and respect, in the midst of conflict the driving need for a woman is love and the driving need for a man is respect. When either of these needs isn’t met, things get crazy.

What is marriage? For some, it’s endless bickering over loading the dishwasher, never-ending drama along the lines of “where did all the money go again?”, and falling asleep halfway during sex. For others, it is a safe haven of trust and respect. What’s the difference? If you’re about to get married, you’ve probably wondered about these questions: How do you preserve that spark between you? How do you keep falling in love with the same person, over and over again? How do you face the challenges of parenting? Fortunately, science can answer your questions.

These are just some words used to describe the reality of dating after divorce. Like all major life changes, going through a divorce can be a very stressful time. No matter how long you were married, the act of parting from the person in life you may have been closest to can be jarring, challenging, and heartbreaking. The emotional exhaustion, the fear of failure, and that nagging feeling that maybe you're just meant to be alone can all make dating seem like a chore or something you don't want to do.

They say Rome wasn't built in a day. Neither are the most successful marriages. Successful relationships are built using building blocks like engagement, safety, mending, loyalty, opportunity, trust, hope, and gratitude. This book reveals the elements consistently underutilized or missing in relationships, especially struggling marriages and couples considering divorce. These are elements not just to know and recognize as concepts but also to understand how they interconnect and work together to build a strong(er) and more fulfilling relationship.
Words To Love By is written by an experienced counseling and marriage mentoring team, who also are husband and wife. This book focuses on practices that help couples improve communication, resolve conflict, and create a stronger marital bond. The happiest couples, however, learn the words to love by and know how to implement them to build and stabilize a mighty tower of love. Learn the single most important element in a strong relationship and how it acts to stabilize all the others. Discover the positive role conflict can play in a relationship and how it can be used to draw you closer rather than drive you apart. Understand the three types of safety in a healthy relationship and how to make them stronger.
Recognize how engagement, flexibility, and regulation reinforce the building blocks of love to make it stronger and more stable. Learn from the wisdom of countless couples in struggling relationships and information gleaned from small group work, premarital counseling sessions, and marriage intensives.

Our world has diluted the meaning of friendship, but the reality is, there’s nothing like the sustaining strength of true-blue, forever friends.

You don't have to be controlled by difficult people! Strange as it may seem, other people are not nearly as committed to our happiness as we are. In fact, sometimes it seems like they’re on a mission to make us miserable! There’s always that one person. The one who hijacks our emotions. The one who seems to thrive on drama. If we could just “fix” that person, everything would be better. But we can’t fix other people. We can only make choices about ourselves.
