Hi all, I am in a long term realtionship with my girlfriend and will be marrying in a year or so, I wanted suggestion of 1 book I should read to make our relationship better, I have heard mixed opinions on Men are from Mars and Women are from Venus, but do not know much about any other books of similar genre. My partner and I are Indians, not sure if that impacts the suggestions. I am also looking for a book to better my realtionship with my parents (it is not bad in anyway but I feel I can do better), specially since I live away from them, I feel more strongly about having a healthy realtionship with people I care about the most. Thanks all.

Do NOT get Mars/Venus
The Gottmans are the top researchers and experts in the field of relationships.
I’d suggest these books from them, for communication and trust. But you’re going to need to go past your “1 book” limit.
The Seven Principles for Making Marriage Work
What Makes Love Last?: How to Build Trust and Avoid Betrayal
Fight Right: How Successful Couples Turn Conflict Into Connection
Parent relationships are another matter completely. And the books that will help there depend on what your existing relationship looks like, and what your desired changes and outcomes are.
