Couples now have a new resource for learning how to have happy relationships, or save the one they’re in. With divorce rates on the rise and a plummeting economy that will no doubt lead to stress in the household, this book comes at just the right time. How to Have a Happy Marriage is a manual and workbook written by happily married couple, Aaron and Jessica Walters. After 11 years, they’ve been through a great deal together and had the opportunity to observe and take notes on both happy couples and unhappy ones.The book is unique in that it does not seek to place blame on the offending partner, but urges each partner to take a long, hard look at themselves and what they are doing (or not doing) to make the relationship better. People are quick to place blame, especially in relationships, but oftentimes a simple change in their state or their way of seeing the situation is all it takes to put an end to the offending behavior.The self-proclaimed "Happiest Couple on the Block" walks each couple through lessons and then gives them worksheets so they can track their progress throughout the nine lessons. There is also a one-month challenge at the end of the book, as well as a 10-page guide to romantic resources: books, movies, music and date ideas to help bring the romance back to the relationship.
