I loved it! It is an interesting and enlightening book. I am going to buy some more copies and give them to a couple of single friends. It is great for discussion and it really gives you god insight about your right partner. I think it is very fulfilling to find books like these that guide us through one of the most important decisions in our lives.

This is the book I give to people who are thinking about getting married, if for no other reason than the 50 Item List of Helpful Marriage Similarities. It's a great discussion starter.

A great book that details a lot of healthy things to look into yourself, your potential spouse and the relationship to determine the possibility of a successful marriage.

This author is the founder of e harmony.com. I saw him on Oprah ten years ago and he is right on with his advise!!!!
Anyone who is looking to get married should read it!
Anyone who is married will see why they struggle with their mate. No one is perfect, but this book will help minimize conflict areas in a marriage by selecting compatable traits.
I keep this book in my library because I feel it is revolutionary and everyone should read it.

I found this book extremely helpful for myself, when I read it in high school. it helped me to clarify what I was looking for in a mate, and how to set priorities and act on them. Then I shared the book with a friend who was in a relationship she questioned. after reading the book, which she also really enjoyed, she broke up with her boyfriend, and about a year or two later, met the man she is happily married to today. I have given this book as a gift to several single friends, and I heartily recommend it to anyone who is seeking some clarity in their search for the "love of your life". it is a Christian book, so you need to expect some Christian perspective, but I think even non-Christians would gain from the book, as most of the principles and recommendations are not dependent on the author's religious beliefs, but on his experience as a counselor/ psychologist who for many years worked with dating and married couples. Check it out, and pass it on to single friends. it is definitely worth the read!

I thought this book was extremely good. It is very concise and to the point without too much fluff or unnecessary examples. There is also a fantastic list at the very end of all the important topics covered in the book. Truly a great resource for single adults of all ages.

I was disgusted by this book, which was very popular at the time. It was formulaic, psycho-babble, brain junk to me. I just don't think you can reduce love and marriage to a ten step program, and I didn't particularly agree with the value of all the steps. I guess all the subscribers to E-Harmony are hoping i'm wrong, but it just was not working for me.

Helped me define what I wanted from myself and a life partner.

این کتاب رو انتشارات اوحدی با نام "در جستجوی عشق زندگی" با ترجمه ی آقای قراچه داغی چاپ کرده و به چاپ نهم رسیده. بسیار ساده نوشته شده و به نظرم واقعا همه باید از مطالب مفیدش استفاده کنن

I love finding guides on how to avoid 'land mines' in life and business. This is one of those books that helps to avoid the land mines in relationships. And believe me, I had to step in many land mines before I found this book.

Read it first as a single person (as I did) and also share with serious partners.

If you know where not to step you can save time and energy (and not lose any limbs).

It worked! Well, I did find the love of my life...but about 15 years later after I read this. So perhaps the connection is tenuous. From memory this wasn't too obnoxious and made some sense.

6/10

Was I embarrassed to purchase this book? Yes. Was I embarrassed to pull it out on the subway? Yes. Will I recommend it to all my friends? Yes.

This book was written by the psychologist who started eharmony.com. It's a pretty quick read and is fantastic for anyone thinking of marriage (in both the near and distant future). It is very realistic and has good insights. It also had good tips about making marriage last and ensuring that you are ready for that commitment.

When I was completing a journalism class in college, I did an article on divorce. The two doctors I spoke with from different universities both recommended similar things: premarital counseling and not marrying too young. This book is a great introduction to premarital counseling.
