In Us, couples therapist Terrence Real argues that the real crisis in modern relationships is not conflict itself but the loss of "us" as a shared entity, a concept he calls relational empowerment. Drawing on decades of clinical practice and research at the Relational Life Institute, Real identifies five "losing strategies"—needing to be right, controlling your partner, unbridled self-expression, retaliation, and withdrawal—that erode intimacy even when each partner believes they are acting reasonably. He contrasts these with five "winning strategies": turning toward, expressing vulnerability, asking directly for what you want, responding generously, and repairing quickly after rupture. The book's central framework is "adaptive child versus wise adult," a developmental lens Real uses to explain why partners revert to childhood survival behaviors under stress. He describes how early attachment injuries create what he calls "the adaptive child"—a reactive, defensive self that shows up during conflict—and prescribes specific "relational mindfulness" practices to help partners shift into adult functioning. Real also introduces the "feedback wheel," a structured communication exercise for delivering complaints without triggering defensiveness, and the "betrayal" framework for rebuilding trust after infidelity or major ruptures. Woven throughout are composite case studies from Real's practice—couples dealing with infidelity, ambition gaps, parenting conflicts, and long-term resentment—used to illustrate each strategy in action. He is candid that repair often requires addressing trauma, and he integrates attachment theory, family systems, and occasional references to neuroscience to explain why the losing strategies feel so compelling in the moment. The book's argument is cumulative: marriage and committed partnership, done well, are not merely about two individuals getting needs met but about building a third entity, the relationship itself, which requires its own care. Us is aimed at couples, therapists, and individuals wanting concrete, unromantic tools for the daily work of staying connected.

『Us』の名言
This is the paradox of historical knowledge. Knowledge that does not change behaviour is useless. But knowledge that does change behaviour quickly loses its relevance.
Humans were always far better at inventing tools than using them wisely.
