Fully Half Committed

Conversation Starters for Romantic Relationships

De: Barbara Morrison, Ed Risling

Narrado por: Derek Watson

This book is for those in romantic relationships — and for those who want to be. Most couples begin their relationship accidentally - and stay in it unconsciously. The authors explore this concept of being "Fully Half Committed" and why people choose to couple differently than their parents and grandparents. Whether you are with a partner for a day or a lifetime, the authors encourage people to have conscious, intentional relationships. Through 43 concise, stand-alone chapters of observations, advice, and questions, the authors offer key ideas and strategies to work through the challenges of your romantic life. The chapters cover romantic relationship issues from cultivating intimacy to deal-breakers such as understanding low sexual desire and learning from betrayal.
