      Started off talking about dating advice. But the rest focuses too much on religion and dating a Christian.

      Amazing ! May the Lord bless Dr. cloud for being such a great cheer leader to make posible dates with wisdom, care, liberty and responsibility. I noticed the audiobook skip many portions of examples as stories from couples . But for sure it must be read. It doesn’t relay only in sex boundaries , in fact that topic is only taken in the end. But it goes beyond . How to be respect and respect the other . How to see if it’s the right time or too much, too fast .
      It is a book to study and May the Lord make time available for men to hear it as well.

      Soooooo much Christianity. Reader be warned. Only read if you like Bible quotes.
    • 3/5
      Good, but rather redundant after reading the first "Boundaries" book.
    • 3/5
      Had some interesting things to think about when entering into a dating relationship, but I felt it was a bit shallow. I would have preferred a deeper look at one or two of their points, rather than the broad overview.
