There is a need for literature that gives guidance to couples starting a new relationship in marriage. This is a phase of life many of us enter unprepared. With my children, niece nephews soon to enter new relationships, it was my heartiest wish that they stay happy in their marriage. Most young people learn from behaviour and the relationship between their parents. However, the correct steps to stay happy in a marriage are a set of rules that need to be carefully followed. This booklet is dedicated to all who have helped and guided me tremendously in life Dr Mrs Mona Shariq
