A choice-theory guide to building and sustaining marriage
William Glasser and Carleen Glasser examine marriage through the lens of “choice theory,” presenting relationship satisfaction as something shaped by the choices partners make. The book addresses two connected questions: how to assess compatibility when choosing a partner, and how to strengthen an existing relationship. Its scope includes why marriages endure or break down, with practical guidance centered on creating loving, happy partnerships. First published as Staying Together and updated here, it frames marriage as an ongoing relationship to understand and actively improve rather than a one-time commitment.
Good fit for readers who enjoy
- Couples seeking a framework for improving their relationship
- Adults considering compatibility in a long-term partner
- Readers interested in William Glasser’s choice theory applied to marriage
