Rian identifies uneasy truths and difficult decisions that men in dysfunctional relationships must deal with in order to get positive results. It's not easy. What's worse, what you need to do will not be intuitive and might make things worse before they get better. This is the hard part because we men tend to prefer simple, broad solutions that require hammers and machetes over solutions that may require microscopes, scalpels, and patience.You're likely reading this now either because you already know Rian's work, which means you know he's helpful, or you've happened upon this book because you're stuck in a difficult personal or domestic situation and looking for practical help finding your way through it. You want to become better off and better able to avoid these kinds of situations in the future whether that's with your current woman or a new one. What's more, you're probably angry and resentful, which, when misdirected, clouds your judgement. Often, you get to a point where you don't have the first clue about how to respond to whatever's going on-Nick August
