This lively course offers the practical guidance that teens crave for building relationships that are not based on sex.

"Increasing Your Relationship Smarts" covers subjects such as attraction, infatuation, rejection, falling in love, emotions, and breaking up. Students also learn specific dating skills: what to say and do in the early stages, how to get to know someone, how to assess a relationship and avoid attachment to problem people.

Lessons include varied activities based on the latest research. Stories from the anthology, The Art of Loving Well, help bring these topics alive.

This unit is designed for schools, youth agencies, clubs and faith based organizations.
