Agreed. My relationship is near bliss right now, but there have been a few stumbling blocks that have nearly flushed it all down the toilet (mainly on my behalf). Most of the time it's things I've said which I thought were harmless, which actually ended up in full-blown nuclear meltdown. All in the past nowadays (touch wood)

Afraid I'm not too overwhelmed with the first example chapter though. Seems a bit rhetorical, but then it is aimed at newbies...

I think so too . It describes our situation well enough , but not even a hint of what his answer(s) may be . Im not saying that his answer(s) will be the right one and I sure would take it with a grain of salt when I do read it . However I ( we ) are in a unique situation so it might be a bit of interesting or at least fun reading .

I say this because Now we are in a fight from yesterday . A real good ( bad ) one .

It started because I asked her to not machine dry my jeans , then all hel broke loose . In the end it will have been all my fault . TITW

Every relationship is unique. I'd treat this book with extreme caution.

If you are having cross cultural difficulties then talk them through with your partner. Thats how relationships work. By communication not by reading.
