Is marriage the Jack Kevorkian of romance? Why not just skip marriage and go straight to sex? How do you get fantasy to stay alive while living in the reality of marriage? What about plastic surgery? What is okay for a married couple to pursue in order to enhance their sex life? Can we live happily ever after, or is that just a myth from the fantasy world of fairytales and movies? These are some of the questions REAL Marriage seeks to tackle. We explore these questions not by talking about marriage in general but by talking about our marriage. We attempt to be REAL with you so that you can see the highs and lows of our REAL marriage. The honesty of this book is brutal at times. We sometimes cringe at our own story even as we read it now. However, we believe that, in the end, REAL marriage is possible for every married couple. We are endeavoring to experience it, and you can as well. The story of your marriage will never be the same after you pursue REAL. Fantasy can meet reality in your marriage if you are willing to live it. The book will show you how.

Early in his career, Dan Beaver discovered that people were never taught how to develop an intimate relationship. We are taught how to read, how to write, drive, play sports, and use a computer. But nowhere in our society are we taught how to develop or maintain an intimate relationship. Most of us learned from TV shows. Some generations were taught by Ozzie and Harriet Nelson or Ward and June Cleaver. Other generations learned from their favorite soap operas, or maybe The Waltons, Cliff and Clair Huxtable, Roseanne, Friends, or 7th Heaven. We now have Desperate Housewives, The O.C. , and a multitude of reality shows. Almost everyone learns something about intimacy from their parents, but few had the luxury of learning good skills. Most of us have not. In working with thousands of couples over the past 34 years, Dan heard a common theme from almost everyone: upon committing to a lifelong relationship (marriage, etc.) they were totally unprepared for knowing how to develop and maintain an intimate relationship that lasts a lifetime. Because of his desire to help people, Dan developed a process that enables everyone to create the relationship of their dreams. He delivers information that addresses a major need and fulfills our desire for details on how to have greater fulfillment in an intimate relationship. His passion is to help people; his style is powerful, straightforward, warm, and engaging.
