In the book, Sweat shares his signature advice on what it takes to make relationships work. “Compatibility is a must on a number of levels, from sexuality to communication to even the ways in which you interact with others. Sexual compatibility is really important because if you aren’t or when that falls off, then there tends to be a problem in the relationship. Can the couple communicate with each other without constantly getting into arguments? The way in which you interact with people outside of the relationship is also important. Some people are jealous types. If you’re a jealous type, then you probably shouldn’t date a social butterfly. Having said that, if you feel like you have to go through someone’s things or you don’t trust the person you’re with, then you definitely shouldn’t be in a relationship.”
He adds, “Everyone wants companionship. We just have to be more careful about who we get into a relationship with. Get into something that you want, not something that you have to force. If that person doesn’t want you like you want them, then it’s the wrong person. If it’s hard in the beginning, it’s going to be hard during the relationship. You usually know this in the beginning, because it wasn’t working but you forced it, which is why it’s a tough relationship.”
