Summary:

Often as they counseled couples, Hendrix and Hunt were perplexed by the results. For example, as one husband changed his behavior to match his wife's wishes, she pushed him away. Instead of pleasure, both felt frustration. After examining their own marriage and doing further research, Hendrix and Hunt realized that the answer lay in learning how to accept love and praise from a partner.
