The Innie and Outie Guide to a Great Relationship We use the words everyday, but what does it really mean to be an introvert or an extrovert? And what does it mean to be an introvert in a romantic relationship with an extrovert? Can it work? Surprisingly, psychologists tell us that despite their obvious differences, introverts and extroverts can enjoy a strong, stable-and fun-relationship. The key to introvert/extrovert bliss lies in understanding what makes the other person tick and using your differences to help balance and enrich the relationship. This book offers advice for making it happen: •Learn how innies and outies process information and communicate differently •Discover ways to create a fulfilling social life for yourself and your partner •Find creative ways to blend decision-making and future-planning styles •Get past the dangerous question, why can''t you be more like me? •Turn up the heat in the introvert/extrovert bedroom The book is based on current scientific research and innie/outie interviews. It is also based upon the authors'' personal experiences as a mixed couple—introvert Marti Olsen Laney and extrovert Michael Laney have been happily married for more than forty-two years. They must be doing something right!
