Fighting for your marriage

Description

A new and updated edition of the all-time bestselling book on marriage enhancement and divorce prevention. Since it was first published in 1994, Fighting for Your Marriage has been the bestselling book in its field. This revised edition contains more than seventy-five percent new material, including: - How couples’ expectations of marriage have radically changed as we’ve entered the age of the "negotiated marriage"; - Why an emphasis on self-satisfaction in marriage doesn’t work: loyalty, commitment, devotion, friendship, teamwork, and acceptance are the keys to success; - How unresolved conflicts and fighting impact your children; - How self-regulation affects relationships As in the original edition, the book offers invaluable advice on achieving better communication and problem-solving skills, using structured techniques to resolve conflicts, sharing a core belief system,

understanding commitment and forgiveness, restoring intimacy, increasing fun, and improving your sex life. The authors show that conflict in intimate relationships is as normal and essential as love—but it’s how you fight and resolve conflicts that determines the difference between a sustained healthy marriage or a painful divorce.

This new and revised edition of "Fighting for Your Marriage" is based on the widely acclaimed PREP(R) (Prevention and Relationship Enhancement Program) approach. Groundbreaking studies have found that couples can use the strategies of this approach to handle conflict more constructively, protect their happiness, and reduce the odds of breaking up. Based on twenty years of university research, this popular book will show you how to: talk more and fight less, deepen and protect your friendship, have a more intimate, sensual relationship, keep the fun alive, clarify and act on your priorities, and develop a vision for your future together.

Children, fathers, ex-spouses, and society all benefit when the connection between dads and their children are maintained.

Reviews

"The authors' presentation of the PREP approach is concise and meaningful for clinicians, therapists, and individuals alike who are seeking a model for conflict resolution and enrichment of ANY intimate relationship. Although written in the context of heterosexual marriage, the same principles obviously apply to homosexual and non-traditional unions. Highly recommended from a doctoral level clinician who has found this model to work in both straight and gay/lesbian relationships. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

"I have been trained by Markman, Stanley and Blumberg in the PREP program. Since the training, my spouse and I have worked with couples using their techniques and I have delivered numerous short presentations on the PREP program. The book is an excellent introduction to the process and if followed carefully, it can enrich the relationship of engaged couples and improve any marriage. I highly recommend it. Dr. M. Jean Turner, Associate Professor Family Studies Dr. William C.
