Great overview of practical advice for supporting a harmonious, productive relationship. I underlined several things that may seem common sense but are hard to act on in reality - like remembering to be NICE to your partner daily, do fun things together, and plan for time to discuss serious serious things - as opposed to just coexisting and hoping things sail along well. The only negative critique I have is that some of the little "male perspective" notes rubbed me the wrong way as being a bit stereotypical and lame. Third edition is definitely dated at this point, but overall it's a great resource!

Talked about the hard things. This is a keeper for me.
