Do you read books to improve your relationship?

Question

Answer

More like to improve myself so that I can contribute to our strong relationship.

Answer

I should add to my response that all the advice books I read are by renowned Christian authors so they're all faith based. Anything else is not of use to me.

Look at The Love Dare. Written by a Christian author but I don't know a single person who doesn't know what their "love language" is, regardless of whether they're a Christian or not.

Answer

Might work for some people but not me personally. I tried reading some books on relationships, but I found them boring and a little condescending. Better to save time/money and just have a nice long chat with my hubby over dinner or before bed.

Answer

While my husband and I were in premarital counseling, we were told to become students of each other and to become students of marriage. Commit to learning about each other for the rest of your lives. And commit to learning about marriage and how you can improve yours. I read For Women Only and it was really good! My husband and I are going to listen to a sermon series in a couple of months that is about marriage. I also own several books that I will read. I've heard the book The Reason for Marriage is really good. I own Love and Respect which is supposed to be great. I'm planning on reading it this summer.

Answer

I have read books that helped my relationship, but they were really books about how to make myself better. The best one was "The Mastery of Love" by Don Miguel Ruiz... All of his books are great, especially "The Four Agreements".

Answer

The only relationship I ever read was "too bad to stay, too good to leave". I left and never needed to read a relationship book again.
