Finally, the information that teaches people how to enhance their own romantic IQ is offered for couples wishing to enhance their relationship skills. High intelligence may predict your speed at solving math problems or whether you will win a Nobel Prize, but it doesn't guarantee success, happiness, or personal fulfillment. Being smart in life requires much more than a high IQ. A more reliable indicator of happiness potential is your EQ-Emotional Quotient: the measure of your emotional depth and dexterity. Satisfying relationships rely on romantic intelligence-a set of attitudes and behaviors that work together to build fantastic partnerships. From this practical book, learn how to enhance emotional self-awareness. Practice emotional honesty and deal with toxic emotions: jealousy, competition, control, and dependency. Understand what really makes love work and how to make it happen. About the Authors Mary Valentis, Ph.D., is a lecturer in English at the State University of New York, Albany.
