A RELATIONSHIP QUIZ:

"When a couple wants real answers about their relationship, it's time to ask the tough questions. Here (below) is a list of questions to get you started. I'd love to hear your success stories and short descriptions of what happened when you asked any one of the questions on my list. I'm writing a new book where I will be incorporating the best of the e-mailed comments I receive (with your permission, of course — be sure to include a line that says, "I authorize Dr. Rhoades to quote me freely as long as he doesn't divulge my name or location."). Include your real name and contact information (I will protect your anonymity) in your e-mail message so I can call you with any questions I might have if I will be including your comments in my book. Before I quote you or paraphrase your comments, I will let you know. You can e-mail your success stories to my regular e-mail address: TVDoc2@aol.com, but please put the words "Success Story" in the subject area. Thanks!" --Roger Rhoades
