In fact, successful couples have the same number of
disagreements as the couples who divorce.
Even more interesting, all couples disagree about all the same
issues - money, kids, sex, housework, in-laws and time.

The difference between successful and unsuccessful
couples is how they handle their differences.

Successful couples disagree in a way that
makes their relationship stronger.
They also have other skills, knowledge and attitudes which help
them build and maintain long-term happiness and satisfaction.

The good news is that anyone can
learn to do it better and smarter.
Couples can unlearn the behaviors that destroy
love and replace them with the behaviors
that keep love alive.

Learning what to expect in marriage and the skills to become masters
of marriage gives couples a new confidence and "can do" attitude -
success breeds more success.

There are many different courses which teach the skills and information - many
different programs from which to choose.

The average class is 2 days, but there are shorter – and longer – classes.
There are 4 hour classes, one-day classes, weekend classes, and classes
that meet one night a week for six or eight weeks.
There are also longer semester-long (4 month) programs.

There is a broad range of both secular and faith-based programs.

There are courses for couples at any stage:
• dating
• engaged
• cohabiting
• married - newlyweds or long-married or anything in between
• new parents
• parents of adolescents
• empty-nesters
• stepfamilies
• couples on the brink of divorce - separated or out of love.

All couples need the same information and the same basic skills.
Couples can use the tools to build a good relationship from the ground up,
to keep a good relationship healthy – or to rebuild a marriage or relationship
that's seriously in need of repair.
It turns out you CAN learn how to get the feeling back.......and keep love alive.

See the Directory of Programs for a listing of the many
different courses - and find one near you.

Give a course - a great wedding, anniversary, retirement, or new baby gift.

Vist the Articles page or listen to CDs, MP3 downloads, or watch DVDs to help
you to learn about this new approach that is not marriage counseling or marriage therapy,
it's more like "driver's education" for marriage.
