Introduction to Age-Gap Relationships Read the Article!
Discrimination, resentment and even fear of anything or anyone who is what we have tended to label as 'different' seems to be relaxing. Today a young man and older woman is more prevalent than most realize; at least that is the way it seems.

Communication Skills Read the Article!
Communicating is one of the most important things a couple can do together to keep their relationship strong and full of vitality. In fact, without communication there is no intimacy in a relationship. Intimacy -- or literally "in-to-me-see" -- cannot exist without both partners revealing themselves through communication. Without communication, the relationship consists of guessing, interpreting, wondering, hurt feelings and perhaps sex.

What Makes a Marriage Work Read the Article!
Yes, opposites do attract, however the marriages that work the best are with couples who have similar values, beliefs and interests.
