Product Description

Love matters. Whether it’s the romantic kind or the emotional bond between you and family or friends. Indeed latest research suggests that those who love and are loved are significantly more likely to be alive in 10 years time than those without love in their lives. Love makes us happy, and the happier we are, the longer it seems we tend to live.

But it isn’t always easy to love and be loved. Love is also complicated. Relationships are invariably complex and they need to be attended to, nurtured, worked at, and invested in. It’s all too easy to neglect relationships – often without realising it – and this benign neglect leaves you one day wondering why this special relationship has crumbled, unravelled, waned or lost its sparkle. Forming good relationships isn’t easy either. Same sex relationships can be tricky enough (mothers and daughters, brothers and brothers) but when it’s the opposite sex – especially boyfriend/girlfriend) you have the added complication that the other person is wired completely differently and may see things in completely different ways.

If you study people who are so good at relationships you discover it’s not about their personality or gender or how self sacrificing they are. Those who are great in all relationships usually do have to work at it – the secret is that they know exactly where to put their efforts. They know The Rules of Love. In this book these Rules are revealed, so you too can benefit from the simple principles of forming and sustaining strong, enduring and ultimately, life enhancing relationships.

"Refreshingly free of psychobabble" The Sunday Tribune 11 Jan 09

From the Back Cover

Strong, loving relationships are what life’s all about. And some people are really good at it. They find a partner who makes them happy and seem to know instinctively how to handle tricky times and keep the relationship fresh and rewarding. They make friends easily and have lasting relationships that have stood the test of time. They are the lynchpin of a strong, supportive family. They make it look effortless. Yet for most of us it just isn’t that straightforward. Love may be a basic human instinct, but sharing your life with other people isn’t always easy.

Is there something that these people know that we don’t? Is there something we can all benefit from? The answer is a resounding yes. They know the Rules of Love.

The Rules of Love are a set of guiding principles that will help form and sustain strong, enduring and ultimately life enhancing relationships.

You’ll feel the benefits – and so will everybody around you.

The Rules of Love. It’s not a revelation. It’s a reminder.
