Can it help, yes.

If you could sum up Saving Your Marriage Before It Starts in three words, what would they be?

Useful, insightful, yes!

What other book might you compare Saving Your Marriage Before It Starts to and why?

I don't know what I would compare it to but I would recommend its use with professional counseling. It makes all the difference in the world and really helped me refocus on the parts of this book that make me a better fiance and eventually wife. Other great books: The relationship cure, The 5 Love Languages... really anything by John M. Gottman.

What about Les Parrott and Leslie Parrott ’s performance did you like?

I love that they are being real. They wrote this, they lived it and they are telling you about what they have learned, even how they learned it. They have a ton of valuable experience in this area.

What’s an idea from the book that you will remember?

You must cultivate contentment! Learn to adjust to things that are out of your control and avoid the blame game!

Any additional comments?

I didn't like that it constantly sounded like a commercial for the Symbis assessment. I'm sure that it's a great assessment (I admit I haven't taken it) but I think too much time was spent repeating that advertisement for it; the commentary finally got shorter toward the end of the book.

The Bible of Marriage

What a great book. One all married couples should read together and new relationships should read before considering marriage without a doubt.

From every chapter we received practical guidance and feedback on areas we needed to recognize, address and improve.

The biggest takeaway was learning I was the one that needed the most help and understanding more than my spouse.
