Lesson 3 - Learn to do "Good Grief"

Lesson 4 - Satisfying relationships

Paradoxically, few people study (a) what's needed for satisying relationships, or (b) how to analyze and resolve relationship "problems."

See the quiz at http://sfhelp.org/relate/quiz4.htm, and then study http://sfhelp.org/relate/guide4.htm.
Use this Forum to comment on, question, vent about, advise, and report on your general relationship experiences and successes.
