What seems like the perfect love affair -- the kind that will lead to a deep and abiding companionship throughout a long and happy life -- unfortunately often ends in divorce.How do we know if we're destined for happily ever after? There's no simple test, but you can begin by asking the series of questions in Are We Compatible? Author Jeffrey A. Hoffman, Ph.D., gives couples a concrete way to evaluate their relationship and consider important issues before they take that big step. Some of these questions you can openly discuss with your partner; some questions you can only ask yourself. Are We Compatible? helps couples explore their feelings about everything from sex to God to money, and share these sentiments with their partner. The pages of Are We Compatible? are filled with plenty of room to record answers to these thought-provoking questions: -- How much time would you like to spend with your own family? Your partner's family? -- What are your feelings about religion and spirituality? -- Would you like to have children? -- How are you at sharing the bathroom with someone? -- What is it that you like most about each other? -- What makes you jealous? What makes you angry? -- How important is romance to you? -- Which are your least favorite household chores?Questions like these, along with illustrative anecdotes of other couples, create ample opportunities for couples to examine the most important aspects of their relationship. From mutual interests to relating to others to communication, couples will discover thatAre We Compatible? is an invaluable way to spark conversation so that they can determine where they meet -- and don't -- on critical topics.
