The Relationship Book

My friend Nick and I had talked about a collaborative effort on a book about relationships. It would have to be a "good cop/bad cop" kind of routine. He has only had one serious relationship in his life where as I am kind of jaded against realtionships (until someone changes my mind), not necessarily because I have had so many, but because I have had some bad ones. My marriage was not a bad one. His relationship advice would be more serious and how to deal with the emotional ups and downs of a relationship ending. My advice would be more of "Your crazy ass has got to go." Nick's would be more like Dr. Phil and mine would be more like "Ax Ike" from the John Boy and Billy Show. I have to approach everything with a sense of humor from my father's death (he had a great sense of humor) to all of my relationships and to my job. My sense of humor is my coping mechanism. Sometimes it does break down. What happens when it does break down?
