Product Description

Synopsis
Shows readers how to summon the courage and overcome the obstacles to a solid relationship.

From the Author
This is the roadmap to commitment our readers have asked for
It has been eleven years (just after the publication of "Men Who Can't Love") since I was first asked to create a 'map' that would take a man, a woman, or a couple, down the road to commitment. But I had to go down that road first in my own life and know that it was possible, even for the most fearful individuals. Today, having finally brought love, commitment, and marriage into my own life, I know it is possible. And this is why it has been so important for me to create this book. Commitmentphobia does not have to be a life sentence. If you want a different life, you can create that life. You just need to understand and work through the obstacles that are going to get in your way. If you are tired of bumping into the same old walls, as I was, I think you will find extraordinary hope in this book. Everything you need to know is here. The book is my companion, and I hope it will be yours too. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

5.0 out of 5 stars If you think you might need this book, read this book!, 14 Aug 1999
By A Customer
I read this book in the hopes of unearthing the commitment issues my old boyfriend was suffering from. Imagine my surprise to find myself in the same book. This book clearly points out some of the self-constructed barriers we put up, when we honestly think we are giving love our best shot. If you are thinking you might need this book, read this book.

5.0 out of 5 stars Getting to Commitment hits the nail on the head., 7 April 1999
By A Customer
Steven Carter definitely knows this subject first hand and it shows. As a woman who has dated more than one commitmentphobic, it's helpful to understand why many men can't commit.I particularly liked the examples of the conflicts between the couples throughout the book. I would recommend this book to anyone who wants to make a commitment but can't figure themselves out or to anyone frustrated by a noncommital mate. Learning to deal with reality versus fantasy and fear is really highlighted.

5.0 out of 5 stars VERY ENLIGHTING, 24 Jul 1999
By A Customer
This book was given me by a co-worker and it really helped me to understand so much of what I had been doing in previous relationships...and what not to do in the one that I am currently in. I have been seeing this wonderful guy for about 5 months and he wants to build a life together...I refuse to even call him my boyfriend just yet, all because I think that somehow I will ultimately end up hurt or running for fear of committment...this book is an eye-opener for anyone who has had a pattern of loves lost or never found due to our pasts, our parents or those that we call ourselves "in love" with....I highly recommend it....It makes me feel like I am finally looking in the mirror at myself, my soul and my ability to be in a healthy and committed relationship...I know now that I am able and I deserve it...
