Rating:  Summary: Life changing - an underrated gem Review: Recently I read "Practical Intuition in Love" by Laura Day. While good, I found it inferior to this book. Day's book is rather vague. This one tells you exactly what to do, and gives concrete steps.I have owned three copies of this book over the past ten years. I will absolutely say it delivers on its promises, but more -- it's not merely about finding your mate, it's about finding YOURSELF. "Finding Each Other" is directed at both men and women; they don't talk much about "Mars and Venus" or traditional sex roles. This is a book for everyone. The book has a series of exercises to follow. They promise that if you follow every exercise, you will become the best you that you can possibly be, and you will find yourself in a good relationship. They also outline a path with getting in touch with your spiritual and creative side. I didn't know I had this side until I read this book! This book is an 'internal' approach to mate-finding. The first section talks about "Clearing the Mirror", or cleansing yourself of the old hurts and baggage you have been holding onto. Forget The Rules, forget neo-traditionalism - Don and Mary talk about a new kind of egalitarian and co-creative relationship, "ideal life partnership" - and offer that it is available to everyone who seeks it. But they don't just teach you how to find a partner, they teach you how to find yourself. I sincerely hope that this book eventually comes back into print!
