Sorry, no picture again. I really don't know how to do that!
Summary: 280 pgs. My boyfriend asked me to read this book because he liked the book and wanted us to be on the same page when we communicate relationship issues with one another :) One of my roommates asked "Do you always highlight your books?"
Great book for anyone to read if they are in a dating relationship or if they are wondering why his/her dating relationship doesn't work. They (Cloud & Townsend) have authored many other books after their parent book "Boundaries". Basically the book talks about how to set boundaries to define us (to show what we are or what we are not) and to protect us (to keep the good things in and the bad things out). It also addresses the idea that most relationship struggles are caused by problems in the area of freedom (making choices based on own values and not on fear and guilt) and of responsibility (doing your part to keep relationship healthy but not taking blame for things you aren't responsible for).
Through the various chapters, readers are introduced to multiple anecdotes, tips, and words of advice when "dating or non-dating" people encounter various personality types that may control, strike fear, or seize with guilt. It also gives advice to those who have examined their own soul and would like some advice on what to do with the vices and bad personality traits they possess.
