One night during his divorce, Matthew Fray started a blog to try to piece together the story of how his ex-wife went from the 18-year-old college freshman who adored him to the angry woman who thought he was a jerk. It turned out that even though he was a decent guy, he was kind of a bad husband. But as he shared raw, uncomfortable, and darkly humorous first-person stories about the lessons he'd learned from his failed marriage, a peculiar thing happened: Matthew started to gain a following. And in January 2016 a post he wrote titled "She Divorced Me Because I Left the Dishes by the Sink" went viral. Writing from the lens of his own surprising, life-changing experience and his years of counseling couples, Matthew Fray captures what is at the root of so many failed relationships: we simply haven't been taught any of the necessary skills. Sometimes the assumption that we are acting on good intentions actually leads to alienating our partners and fomenting mistrust. A candid take and groundbreaking book on relationships that shows us that good people can be terrible partners and the ways we can strive to improve, no matter what stage of life we're in--Adapted from information provided by publisher.
