The chapter explores the importance of effective communication and conflict resolution, focusing on mutual understanding rather than winning. It discusses setting rules for conversations, asking direct questions, and preparing for discussions.

Some people ask searching questions and then really listen to the replies. These so-called supercommunicators make great romantic partners, so can anyone learn to be more like them?

He explains to Dr Laurie Santos how we can all make small changes that will improve our dating and romantic lives.
