Before reading further, let me emphasize a few things. This
is not a book about romance, nor a guide to improve your relationship (see Relationship Rescue for
that). You are encouraged to pursue this book's questions in a spirit of adventure and fun. If
the idea of answering questions from a book is not your idea of adventure and fun, this book is not
for you. So most people who will read and enjoy this book are ones in a good or excellent
relationship who want to deepen and widen it some.

One final word of caution. There are a lot
of questions in here about your sexual experiences with other people (before and during your
relationship), your fantasies, and your sexual regrets. If those are not comfortable areas for a
discussion, I suggest that you either skip the book or mutually agree to pass on those areas.

Another way to pursue the book (if your partner or you isn't comfortable with a discussion) is
to do it privately, without sharing your answers. That makes the book experience much more like
All About Me.

You should also feel free to make up your own questions. You will probably think
of some that make this experience fit your relationship even better. This is a chance for all of
you romantic couples to come up with lots of romantic questions.

As I went through the book
(by myself, for reviewing purposes -- I plan to start it this weekend with my wife), I had a very
good time. I enjoyed remembering the early days of our relationship, and the high points since
then. I was thrilled to realize that I could answer some of the trivia questions that I would not
have known about before we were married. That made me feel closer to her. I especially liked the
questions about what I liked best about her. I know she'll enjoy hearing me say what they
are.

Hmmm. Now that I think about it, this would be a good book to take along on a weekend to a
country inn during leaf peeping season in New England without the children. Your selection of
where you read it will also affect your pleasure from the mutual discoveries.

In almost all of
the parts of the book, each person has a chance to answer independently. Although the book doesn't
say anything about discussing each other's answers, I suspect that those discussions will be the
best part of the experience. You could even try guessing what your partner will answer, and that
could double the fun!

Basically, I suggest that you use the material here as a jumping off point
for adventure and fun rather than taking the whole thing too literally.

After you are done,
think about how you would like you and your partner to answer these questions 10 years from now.
Then imagine what will have to happen in the next 10 years for your relationship to evolve in that
happy direction.
