Synopsis
(This book is also sold in the Kindle version. Check it out!) "Love is unpredictable: age, education, income, belief, may affect it. Opposition and competition within the couple affect it and often even destroy it. Jealousy especially can have crippling effects on love in terms of endurance. The author has succeeded in the arduous task of gathering, in a simple and accessible book, the most significant data on couple relationships and marriage. The book is based on field research and interviews, based on experiences related to individuals of different ages and social class. The construction of a long-term relationship takes a lot of dedication and patience. Even the most idyllic relationship, in fact, requires constant effort by both parties and will to compromise one’s interests to resolve differences and conflicts. Mutual love, trust, and respect are essential to achieve a balance, which would be otherwise unattainable."
