    After 35 years of marriage, I wasn’t expecting any relationship strains after we both retired so I was very surprised when I noticed we were arguing more often and my husband was becoming quite iritible. My sister suggested this book and we found it really made a difference. There’s lots of clear sensible advice and it’s easy to follow. The best $8.90 that I’ve spent in a long time

    No one warned us that being together 24/7 could be challenging and thats what we found when we were both retired. We both took our relationship for granted and were really surprised when things started to get tense and we started arguing about silly things. Fortunately a friend told us about this book and after reading it and applying some of the suggestions, our relationship is a lot better now
