Why does Dr. Harley recommend 15 hours of undivided attention per week? Why do we need so much time together to have a good relationship? What if I don't have the time? Two women write emails about the problems they have both experienced difficulties in trying to find the time for undivided attention.

Jim writes about the Policy of Undivided Attention and asks if conversation is the only thing that is important. What about the rest of the needs, such as Sexual Fulfillment? Is there a percentage of how much time should be spent on each need?

The Policy of Undivided Attention calls for 15 hours of quality time together meeting each others most important needs. Some people have disagreements on the concept and have brought up several questions, concerns and objections. Today the Harleys discuss why people don't want to follow the PUA.
