Just Your Type: Create the Relationship You've Always Wanted Using the Secrets of Personality Type

This is the second copy I have purchased, because I'm always loaning the book to others. I'm a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and certified to administer the MBTI (personality type). Not only is this my favorite MBTI (personality type) book, it has helped many couples who I've seen in the my practice throughout the years. I've also used it as tool, for my own marriage, and the accuracy of the two types and description of our relationship is amazing! Most couples laugh, with shock, as they read the description of their relationship...they are all amazed at how well the book describes their type and their relationship. I would suggest this book to those who are in a relationship, desires to be in a relationship, or are going through a break-up. If you ever plan to be in an intimate relationship, I highly recommend this book! It is so helpful. My husband and I often say, taking the MBTI was one of the best thing we did for our marriage. This book helps you accept and appreciate the differences in your relationship.

This book contains a wealth of information that makes character development so much easier. It's definitely a must-have resource for serious writers.

I am certified MBTI but mainly use it for career/academic advising. I really wanted to know more about the realtionship aspect of understanding type & I have a real appreciation for the Tiegers after having read their previous book. I decided to order this and found it to be informative and very interesting. My husband (who is almost totally opposite of me type-wise) also enjoyed reading the sections I gave him. I wish there was more information about the relationships between specific types, however. Since there are so many combinations of types being together, it left little room to really expand upon the intricacies of each type relationship.

I’m laughing at the personality descriptions. Nodding my head, oh yeah that’s me. And oh yeah that is my husband.

My spouse and I are nearly complete opposites (ISTJ and ESFP) and so marriage can be irritating if we let it. This book was a review for us but great and easy to read. I wish everyone married would read this - so helpful. We've been married 49 years - think it would be easy by now. LOL

I'm not saying the book is bad, I'm just writing a quick review for those looking for an easy reference guide to personalities that this book is not it. It will take some time to go through this book to learn your personality as well as your mates (or you can take the Myers-Briggs, which I highly recommend if you want to make this book a easier read/faster reference guide).

Despite its somewhat maudlin title and front cover, this book is very interesting. It based on Jungian MBTI theory which in my view is a very powerful tool for understanding people's personality. The book itself is not theoretical: it gives a brief description of the 16 types and then there is a couple of pages for each of the 136 possible combinations. Much has been printed about the MBTI, but this one has a very interesting practical approach. For each combination, you find a paragraph on the strengths, a paragraph on the weaknesses, and a short list of key recommendations for each partner. Even if you know everything about Jungian psychology you can still discover some new insights on personality relationships.

I was extremely pleased with the condition of the book, as well as the quality of the information and contents. The information was easy to understand the the book written very well, so as navigation was very easy. Will likely purchase more by this author, from Amazon, and possibly this seller. I enjoyed the way it breaks down the types, and it also compares the difference in the situations that can be experienced in business relationships, verses personal relationships and the different types. I enjoyed the examples however, at times they were a little wordy and drawn out.

A great book for gaining a better understanding of those you love. Personality preferences make up so much of how we respond to one another, and who wouldn't want to improve the closest relationships in your life? Tried and true information--good examples that will have you sighing with relief that you are not alone! If I ever lose this book I will order another one to replace it.
