Love And Marriage By Bill Cosby

Love and marriage was written by Bill Cosby in 1989. I think the purpose of the book was to show people what love and marriage is all about. I would reccommend this book to married couples. First the book starts off with a younger Bill Cosby. He was very young and did not know much about relationships. He was at the stage where you learn things from your peers or your friends. They tell you things and you all just try to pretend like you know what you are talking about. That is the same exact thing that Bill Cosby did. His friends would talk to him about what they called jones. He did not know what they were talking about but he would pretend like he did. He started dating his first girlfriend and her name was rosemary. She was the girl that all the guys liked. They would give each other the eye but they never said anything to each other but Bill Cosby thought that she was so pretty. He decided to write a note to her and give it to her friend. Rosemary told him that she was going with someone but she did like him. They started to go together after she broke up with her boyfriend. He really liked Rosemary a lot but i guess they grew apart.

When he really started going out with different girls he would do silly things. For one girl he stole his mother necklace and then when they broke up he asked for it back. The girl told him that she did not have it. Bill Cosby decided that he was going to go to her house and get it from her. When her mother answered the door, he told her what had happened. The mother went upstairs in her room and found it. The girl was very angry when she found out that he had stolen it from his mother to give it to her. It was really funny to see the little things that boys do or what they were thinking when they did it.

One girl that he thought he liked was also really funny. They went on a date and realized that they disagreed about little things like music. When she found out that he wanted to be a teacher, she told him that she would not marry a teacher because they do not make enough money. I think he got offended but he did not say anything to her about it.

When he got older he decided that he wanted to be a comedian. At 19 his one friend told him that he wanted him to meet a girl name Camile. Bill Cosby agreed but after hearing that he was a struggling comedian Camile disagreed. Bill Cosby and his friend decided that they were going to the bowling ally together where Camile would be. Bill was the life of the party, making everyone laugh. Then the friend introduced Camile to Bill and she realized that he was the one that had caught her attention early. They started dating. He asked her to marry him and her parents did not like the idea of her marrying a struggling comedian. They eventually got married and obviously now they are still together. He also went further on in the book to talk about the difference between being newlyweds and being married for 15 yrs. It is a great book.
