Overview
From wet towels on the bathroom floor to carelessness with money or outright abuse, the frustrations of women with immature partners are viewed here as genuine problems to be solved by better communication. The guide's two-part message is that change takes two people—and that it is perfectly reasonable to expect an erring partner to grow up and start acting like an adult. Forty-one scenarios are provided to show women how to maximize communication and what to do when it fails.Reviews
