Are you and your mate having troubles understanding one another? Do you feel like you've made something perfectly clear, but your mate isn't comprehending what you're saying?
This wonderful book may help you better communicate with each other. Men and women are raised differently, despite the best efforts of others to raise them equally. As children, boys create a different social community and a way of communication from girls. This gap tends to become larger the older we get. Gray provides translations of "Venusian"(woman) to "Martian"(man) and "Martian" to "Venusian". Some of the most common phrasing for both sexes is found here and will take the guessing game out of these ambigious statements for both sides.
Men and women think differently. It's something one must learn. While some people may think that this book provides "excuses" for behaviors, I simply found that it explained them. Once one understands them, one is better prepared to handle them.
Also note that in the introduction, Gray does not suggest that all females will be one way and all males will be another way. He suggests that there are two major ways of behavior and the book helps explain them.
I recommend this for all couples alongside "The Five Languages of Love" by Gary Chapman and "The Color Code" by Taylor Hartman.
