A lovely little surprise this morning: My TED talk, *The Secret to Lasting Love*, is featured on the homepage of TED.com.

The talk draws on decades of relationship science (and pop culture) to explore a question I've been fascinated by for years:

--> How can we build flourishing relationships in which the individual partners also flourish?

I'm delighted that the ideas are finding an audience.

Excellent article on grand romantic gestures!

Huge kudos to @ProfBohns, not only on this @TIME Magazine article, but also on the publication of her MAGNIFICENT new book, "Should I Say Something"!

If you want to know when to speak up, and when to stay quiet, this is *the* book!

"That’s the trouble with grand romantic gestures; they can make respecting someone’s wishes look like giving up too easily."

A @Time excerpt from Chapter 6 ("Should I Say I Love You?") of my new book.
