This book is for couples who are struggling with conflict or stagnation. It will show you how to prevent them and save your relationship.
Gary Chapman's The 5 Love Languages
Gary Chapman's The Five Love Languages of Couples, despite their popularity, has a few flaws. First, it doesn't adequately describe the consequences of these languages. While the book contains valuable knowledge, it also devalues sacrifices and the need of repairing a toxic relationship. In the end, the concept is a useful one, but it must be applied with caution. This book may not be suitable for you if you are in an abusive marriage.

Dr. John M. Gottman's Call for Connection
Dr. John M. Gottman’s theory regarding relationship quality is fundamentally based around the concept bids. Essentially, bids are requests to connect.

How To
How to act on a first date
It should be exciting and enjoyable on your first date. You want to have a great time. So how do you make this happen?
First, it's okay to not know everything about a person immediately. It's fine to be unfamiliar with someone's hobbies and interests. It doesn't mean that he's not interested in the topics. Even if you don’t know everything, that doesn’t mean you won’t love spending time with him.
Second, be lighthearted. Do not take yourself too seriously. Relax if you feel nervous. This is supposed for fun!
Third, talk about your mutual interests. Ask your partner what their hobbies are. You should learn as much as you can about each other.
Fourth, pay close attention to his words. Pay close attention to what he says. Notice whether he uses words such as "I" or "you." Also, notice whether he talks fast or slow. Listen out for clues about his feelings about himself, others, and the world around him.
Fifth, ask open-ended question. You should ask questions that both of you must answer. You might ask, "What genre of music do I like?" Ask, "Does classical music appeal to you more than rock/pop?"
Sixth, pay close attention to body language. Be aware of signs that he likes and respects you. When he talks to me, look at how he holds the hand. Do you notice any hand gestures? Is he comfortable around you? Does he smile? These are all great indicators that he loves you.
Seventh, look out for signs he doesn’t love you. Are you paying attention to these? What does he do when you touch his face? What happens when he looks into your eyes?
Finally, if you love the person, be sure to kiss him. It's perfectly fine to start kissing him right away.
If you don't like him, tell him so. Tell him you don't think there is a future between the two of you.
You can tell him that you aren't comfortable with the idea of dating him. Tell him you're not his type. Or perhaps you'd prefer to spend time with someone who shares more your interests.
You may also want to inform him that you have met someone.
It's possible to even feel sorry for him. He may have some great qualities, but he hasn't yet found someone special.
It would be very nice.
