very insightful
my husband and i are currently in counseling for our seriously troubled marriage. we're separated now for 3 months. he is the hailstorm and i am the turtle (another book). we are both committed to working on our marriage and counseling has helped. BUT...we are getting to the point that i am questioning...'where do we go from here?' we've aired our grievances through lots of anger and tears. now what? i'm feeling like just talking about our problems and where some of them might stem from isn't moving us forward. we STILL easily fight while in counseling. we don't speak while not in counseling (other than household issues). we need counselor there as a safety net to keep us open and talking, but getting us through the times we are just at each others' throats. this book was recommended by a friend and i am finding it extremely insightful. it questions the need to really dig deep into how we were treated as kids, etc., but what to do NOW. how and/or what can i do now to make things better? what is that i WANT vs what is it that i do NOT want. i am not finished with the book, but i feel hopeful just reading it knowing that there is research out there on how to actually do something to move forward.

If you are reading this now, ORDER this book!
I first purchased this book years ago when my husband and I wanted to avoid a divorce, and as corny as it sounds, THIS BOOK HELPED! When two of my friends were starting to have serious marital issues, I purchased two more to give them as a gift. The future will only tell how much it has helped them. It has amazing step by step steps to take in it, that if you truly want to work things out, this will help you! The grass is not greener on the other side, it's just another shade! Read this book and see for yourself. Communication, time, work and effort. Put it out there. ORDER this now if you are looking at this review, then there is a reason. Thanks Michele for this wonderful book! Divorce Busting: A Step-by-Step Approach to Making Your Marriage Loving Again

Helpful advice that works.
I read this book after my husband dropped the bomb suddenly that he wanted out of our marriage after 28 years and 35 years together. This book has given me a practical way to approach this traumatic situation that I found myself in so unexpectedly. The main message is how to take care of yourself. You can only change yourself, no-one else. Its not only helping in my bid to save my marriage but I am developing into a confident and stronger person, who will use the techniques in all aspects of my current and future relationships. I am glad I came across this book and all the other resources that are written and provided by Michele Weiner-Davis. She must be commended for the work that she does and support that is provided during this very trying time in a persons life.

Didn't work for me
I bought three of her books Divorce Busting, Divorce Remedy and Getting Through the Man You Love along with six expensive sessions. Even though I used most of the techniques in the books on my husband, we drifted further apart. I got a full refund purchasing on a different marriage ebook but not from Wiener-Davis'. In retrospect, I believed my money would have been better spent personal improvements such as personal improvement classes, hypnotherapy, subliminal CDs and beauty makeover.I tried to salvage my marriage after my husband filed the paper. I firmly believe marriage is a long term commitment; it ebbs and flows. I came to realize that divorce is made so easy in a Western country. Many don't take marriage seriously like where I came from. Marriage vow, morality, honesty, loyalty, faithfulness and commitment are not valued in a modern society. My parents have been married for over fifty-seven years until my dad just recently passed away. They have ten children; yes, they have a lot of stress and conflicts but they never never walked out on each other.What I would like to see happening in America is mandated six month pre-marriage counseling and three-year cool down period for those who have children and long-term marriage.Update 11/26/2012=================I would like to recommend several books:The BibleAuthentic Happiness by SeligmenSpiritual Marriage by Brother Anandamoy based on the teaching of Paramahansa YoganandaThink and Grow Rich by Napoleon HillThe Art of Happiness by Dalai Lama and Howard CutlerRemember: 1 Corinthian 13:4-8

YES YES YES, READ THIS! Re-READ THIS!
I use this in my professional practice as a therapist. I wish I had found this before I lost my own marriage. I intend to become Michelle's student after Covid is cleared. I have been in practice for 30 years and I know NOTHING in this arena. I need to learn alot more.

SAVED MY MARRIAGE!! It works! It really works.
The steps are straight forward and to the point. You must be willing to commit. That is the IMPORTANT PART.I saw an ad about Divorce Busting on the internet and gave a try. The best thing I ever did concerning my marriage. I had went to several marriage counselors or therapist but this book was the game changer. i think it is because of the one on one time with one another that help you understand the issues not the person. From there you just deal with the issues. Renewing your mind is the single most important step and changing conflict causing behavior was my number two issues I had to resolve.I agree with all the couples that have a successful marriage.This book is priceless!Gave 3 books to my friends to help with their trying times.Thank you Michele Weiner Davis

If you are thinking about buying this book then Im thinking he or she has walked away or you are on the sofa and things are about to change as he or she is packing bags, Go ahead an buy this book before you do anything or say one more word! This book WILL give you insight to the "crazy" and some answers and things to do and not to do.May give you some options and perhaps hope...This book is a must!
