The journey begins with determining what type of relationship you want and then you will be guided in developing your "Must Haves" list. This list is the discovery of characteristics which results in the best relationship for you. We help you uncover the "Deal Breakers" which guides you away from repeating the same mistakes over and over. You will learn to identify your personal Red Flags that are warnings signs which provide you protection and guidance in choosing a potential mate. You will find guidance to help you to determine and discover what qualities you have to offer to a potential mate and uncover any qualities you posses that may be "Deal Breakers" to others. We all carry baggage in life and into a relationship. What is packed in your bag? Do you bring family issues? Do you bring issues from past relationships? Common questions answered are: How soon should you date after a divorce? What about dating after the death of a spouse? Do you have children and what is the impact of dating on them? How do you prepare your family for you entering back into dating? Then there are the extended families. How do you and your potential mate get along with each other's extended family? What about exes and their extended families. How will all of these potential relationships affect your relationship with your soul mate? These questions are covered and more. Extraordinary communication is extremely important in a relationship. This book will help you with a basic understanding of verbal and non verbal communication. Open communications on topics that can be difficult to discuss are addressed. Topics like; How do you handle money? Physical intimacy, food, music, household chores, hobbies, spare time are just a few of the topics that require excellent communication. Finally, we discuss dating, where to look, and how to present or market yourself to find a potential mate. We also review Respect, One Sided Romance, Physical Intimacy and Loneliness among other situations that can occur while on your journey to seek your soul mate. This book is the culmination of many years of education (both formal and informal), observation, personal experience and prayer. God has blessed Rick and Penny by bringing them together to create this work. There is also some other very good information available and some of it we even recommend as additional resources to our readers. The key is to find what works for you. Hopefully you will gain some practical information that will help turn your unsuccessful dating and decision making habits into an extraordinary relationship. Our society has neglected, ignored and drifted away from the use of this practical information for more than 50 years. It is our grandest hope that this book will help at least some of our readers make better dating (and life) decisions and start Dating Backward.
