engaged, married, life partners, traditional, same-sex, happy, troubled, abusive, Christian, Jewish, Muslim, Hindu, Buddhist, Catholic, childless, parents, empty nesters No religious content. Author is a psychologist and marriage researcher. Other Editions:

  By Emerson Eggichs
Paperback - September 2004
Integrity Publishers
240 Pages
Eggerichs observes (and many men have confirmed to me) that men are upset by the thought their mates don't respect them as women are upset by the thought they are not loved. Worse, women who feel unloved withhold respect and men who feel disrespect withhold love. While other marriage books advise showing respect, this one tells how. This book is highly recommended. Target audiences:
engaged, married, traditional, happy, troubled, Christian, Jewish, Muslim, Hindu, Buddhist, Catholic, childless, parents, empty nesters Includes many Christian references, but is not based on Christian scripture. Author is a Christian minister and marriage counselor. Other Editions:
