His and Hers Guide to Surviving

Two people in love.  Two approaches to life.  One fabulous year.

The first year of marriage is the make-it-or-break-it year. Your wedding may be just a memory--but the fight you had this morning is the here and now. Even though you've promised to be together forever, the truth is your minds may be worlds apart. This extraordinary guide teaches you how to think like a couple, and turn your first year of marriage into one of the best years of your lives. It offers insight into the thoughts of the opposite sex, tells you how to achieve a meeting of the minds, and warns you when you should agree to disagree. It tackles the big issues such as money and in-laws, as well as the little day-to-day things that can drive you crazy. With real-life scenarios that are often hilarious, and advice that is both witty and wise, this friend-to-friend guide provides down-to-earth, practical answers to questions like:

How do you deal with your folks when you visit on the holidays?
Should you have a joint bank account or keep your money separate?
How can you get him to go to the mall? How do you get her to go to the game?
Can you find a way to overcome differences in political and religious beliefs?
How do you handle each other's best friends (the one who knows everything about your last fight)?
