Relationships rarely break all at once. Distance can grow through missed conversations, unspoken expectations and small hurts left unresolved.
In Relationships Bend: How to Keep Them from Breaking, Steven Johnson explores how to notice strain early and find a way back to one another. Through everyday examples involving partners, friends and family, the book offers practical ways to communicate clearly, apologise meaningfully, rebuild trust and set boundaries with care.
You cannot control every relationship on your own. You can choose how you listen, what you ask for and when to make room for repair.
