Found my friend with this book during our travels and it immediately caught my attention.

Hold me tight is a self-help book discussing the topic of love, and finding ways to fix hurt relationships and maintaining renewed love through communication and understanding. Although the book touched on effective methods for couple therapy such as β€˜finding the common enemy’ (Demon Dialogue) and ways to connect within a safe emotional environment, I personally found the book to be longer than needed with anecdotal examples.

For individuals that currently feel lost in their relationship, whether with their significant other or a family member, this book may serve as a reminder of what it takes to connect again. However, do read with an open mind and willingness to learn again, or suffer a read that seems to run in circles all to remind us how to love and be loved.

to apologize: 1) Care about their pain 2) Own up to specific actions 3) Reassure to help
*** expecting forgiveness is not a real apology
