In his extraordinary new audiobook, Terrence Real, distinguished therapist and bestselling author, presents a long overdue message that women need to hear: You aren’t crazy–you’re right! Women have changed in the last twenty-five years–they have become powerful, independent, self-confident, and happy. Yet many men remain irresponsible and emotionally detached. They don’t know how to respond to frustrated partners who just want their mates to show up and grow up. Enter the good news: In this revolutionary audiobook, Real offers women a set of effective tools with which they can create the truly intimate relationship that they desire and deserve. He guides you through the process of relationship repair with exercises that you can do alone or with your partner. We have never wanted so much from our relationships as we do today. More than any other generation, we yearn for our mates to be lifelong friends and lovers. The New Rules of Marriage shows us how to fulfill this courageous and uncompromising new vision.

"This book is a really insightful look at how most people's desires for marriage are different from their parents' and so require different skills that what their families were able to model. Has lots of exercises for practical application. "
— Susie (5 out of 5 stars)
" The books sold as being New Rules of Marriage....yet it seems to focus a lot, especially on the case studies of "clients" whereby the male is wrong and needs to improve.... This was recommended by my wife and mines marriage counsellor....who happens to be female. Shame on you. "
— Justin, 9/30/2022" This book is brilliant because it's not a self-help manual, it's not a save-my-relationship manual, it's just a guide to becoming a better, more thoughtful, responsive communicator. "
— Shannon, 10/18/2009" The first two chapters were kind of off-putting for me, but the remainder of the book was very relevant and helpful. I plan to read it again and do the exercise with each chapter. "
— Tina, 10/7/2009" Easy to understand what is not working in relationships. Great, simple tools for making relationships better. Challenges a person to look at how they contribute to relationship difficulties. "

— Nicko, 4/27/2008" This book is fantastic -and I don't say that just becasue my boss wrote it! It has some very good thinking on what it means to be married these days - especially for those of us who want it ALL. A good read for all women, I think! "
— Susan, 3/3/2008" This one is a bit redundant. I fear that Dr. Real is turning into a "one trick pony" "
