Marriage and relationships in general, are extremely complex and intricate to put together, let alone to make work as time goes on. As German philosopher Friedrich Nietzsche once said, “It is not a lack of love, but a lack of friendship that makes unhappy marriages.” In author Radzilani N. Martin’s book, What Makes a Happy Marriage: Maybe It ’ s Friendliness or Romance or Simply Being Extra Lovable That ’ s Missing, the author displays a detailed guide of self-help in terms of maintaining and finding that one special relationship.
In this book, the author delves into the many intricacies of not only marriage but committed relationships overall. From identifying the person who fits the mold of the perfect partner and possible spouse to the identifiable traits that often see relationships dissolve and the way to either shed yourself of those toxic relationships or to hold onto the ones that matter.
This is a lengthy and in-depth read that fully goes into the nuances and intricacies of relationships. Well written and honest in its approach, the author showcases a path of research and experience which leads them to see the pitfalls of relationships and the things that keep marriages alive and together. Each chapter carefully examines the insand-outs of relationships and what each partner does or doesn’t do that can disrupt or even end the relationship entirely.
This is a book written for anyone who enjoys self-help books, books on relationships or is seeking to understand and improve their own relationships in life. While I will say the book is written with a voice that connects to a more traditional and sometimes religious place and frame of mind, there are many aspects of the novel which will speak to readers of all paths and walks of life that can help them see aspects of their relationships they otherwise may have been missing; a rare feat in a book which comes from one perspective. Yet the author has managed to capture this perfectly in the book.
From the reasons a man is seen leaving a woman to what defines a “strong” relationship and finding a place to be in mental harmony (and for the author themselves and the originally intended audience, spiritual harmony as well), author Radzilani N. Martin’s book What Makes a Happy Marriage: Maybe It ’ s Friendliness or Romance or Simply Being Extra Lovable That ’ s Missing is a fascinating and in-depth read which will mainly speak to traditional and religious people seeking meaningful relationships, but will also appeal to a wider audience to help seek the aspects of their own relationships that may otherwise have stayed hidden.
