Only someone who's recently dated can speak straight to the heart of the single adult, but only a scholar and counselor can speak wisely to the head. In Growing Your Love Life, psychologist Dr. Paul Schmidt shows readers how gradually growing affection can guide and motivate singles toward the hard work of disclosure and commitment so often lacking in fast-paced modern dating. Within this book, readers will find dynamic illustrations showing how relationships grow best in balance, great advice on getting over past relationships, strategies for love short on passion and passion short on love, strong new arguments on why to save intercourse until marriage, and the magic of how a little less physical affection can actually produce much more feelings of freedom and fulfillment. This book is a wonderful read for single adults whether they are in or out of love, the church, or the hopes of marriage someday.
