Each relationship is as individual as the men who are involved. Rather than rely on a one-size-fits-all approach to relationship success, Los Angeles therapist Jeffrey Chernin, Ph.D. helps each of us to acquire a better understanding of ourselves and how we engage in intimate relationships. In this warm and compassionate guide, Chernin helps us answer the questions we long to answer:
- How can I build a long-lasting partnership?
- Why am I afraid to get closer?
- How can I open myself to deeper, more intimate communication?
- How can I put an end to ongoing fights and stalemates with my partner?
- How can I meet someone to share my life with?
I wish I had Get Closer years ago when beginning my first partnership. A terrific and useful book." --Felice Picano, co-author of The New Joy of Gay Sex
"An outstanding book for gay men who want to look at their relationships--both beginning and long-term--and improve them.... This book will help you to get closer to yourself and to others!" --Kenneth D. George, Ph.D., Emeritus Professor, University of Pennsylvania, author of Mr. Right is Out There and Keeping Mr. Right
"Jeffrey Chernin guides us through our readiness for a relationship and how to find a likely partner. Then he provides helpful strategies to work through the differences that inevitably arise, enhancing our ability to maintain the intimate connections many of us long for." --Rik Isensee, LCSW, author of Love Between Men
