Summary of John Gottman, Julie Schwartz Gottman, Doug Abrams & Rachel Carlton Abrams's Eight Dates

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 The success or failure of a marriage or long-term relationship is not a coin toss. It is not chance. It is choice. We now know what couples can do to improve the odds. #2 The secret to creating a love that lasts and grows over time is to make non-negotiable time for your partner a priority, and never stop being curious about your partner. #3 The great relationships are built on respect, empathy, and a profound understanding of each other. You can’t be in a relationship and not have conflict, but you can learn how to manage it together and make it work. #4 The eight dates and conversations in this book are designed to help you understand your partner better, and to see if you’re compatible. They may even help you get to know each other all over again, and return to those times when you would stay up all night talking and couldn’t wait to learn more about each other.
