I very much enjoyed this book. Great advice and insight from people who have been married for decades. A lot of the stories are very sweet, but it also provides real life examples that aren't always pleasant. I found that I've been telling my single and married friends about this book a lot while I've been reading it. I'll probably read it again in the future. I recommend it. ( )Esta reseña ha sido escrita por los Primeros Reseñadores de LibraryThing. A very sweet book that made me think about what I bring to and look for in a relationship. While some of it was a bit saccharine, I did truly appreciate the life and love advice of the older generation. I did appreciate that the book wasn't all unicorns and sparkles and that some of the stories, and advice, did talk about the darker aspects of a relationship (from both perspectives). It's a book that I would pick up again to remind me how to have a fulfilling and loving relationship, and how to navigate it. Esta reseña ha sido escrita por los Primeros Reseñadores de LibraryThing. What a great book with love advice! There's a lot of books out there but these are real interviews with real people - some unusual advice, and also some stuff you know already but should listen to! Esta reseña ha sido escrita por los Primeros Reseñadores de LibraryThing. I thoroughly enjoyed this book, and wondered how much I missed from never having these kinds of conversations with my grandmother and grandfather (both married multiple times). I can only imagine that much of what they would have told me about marriage as a commitment and a job would have been found within these pages.Pillemer does a fabulous job of organizing the information into key components, making the true value of the words of these elders easy to grasp and hold on to. Much as the theory of the [Five Love Languages] goes beyond any one spiritual belief, the concepts found within this book all relate to far more than just the elderly. If we had more of a community of generations today, I wonder if we would be able to forgo much of the pain associated with split families. Perhaps paying attention to the lessons that have already been learned could do some good for those of us who have not yet had the experiences of the peaks and valleys of such long term relationships. Esta reseña ha sido escrita por los Primeros Reseñadores de LibraryThing. I wasn't sure this book would apply to me since I've been married for 10 years, but I gleaned a lot of good advice and knowledge from the seniors interviewed. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
From the author of the beloved 30 Lessons for Living Karl Pillemer's 30 Lessons for Living first became a hit and then became a classic. Readers loved the sage advice and great stories from extraordinary older Americans who shared what they wish they had known when they were starting out. Now, Pillemer returns with lessons on one of the most talked- about parts of that book-love, relationships, and marriage. Based on the most detailed survey of longmarried people ever conducted, 30 Lessons for Loving shows the way to lifelong, fulfilling relationships. The author, an internationally renowned gerontologist at Cornell University, offers sage advice from the oldest and wisest Americans on everything from finding a partner, to deciding to commit, to growing old together. Along the way, the book answers questions like these: How do you know if the person you love is the right one? What are the secrets for improving communication and reducing conflict? What gets you through the major stresses of marriage, such as child-rearing, work, money issues, and inlaws? From interviews with 700 elders, 30 Lessons for Loving offers unique wisdom that will enrich anyone's relationship life, from people searching for the right partner to those working to keep the spark alive after decades together. Filled with great stories, wise observations, and useful advice, 30 Lessons for Loving is destined to become another classic. No se han encontrado descripciones de biblioteca. |
