Ratings and reviews

Very helpful material. Definitely a good book if you're trying to overcome jealousy and see it a new light.

I liked the thought provoking questions and when expkored, I did feel more comfortable and closer to my partner.

Great way to describe how I feel! And also knowing I'm not the only one who feels this way.
