This challenging book is designed for readers who are not afraid to face the truth about themselves and how they collude in their relationship disharmony.

It demonstrates through theory, examples, and exercises how our unconscious interpretations and beliefs influence our relationship conflicts, and how aligned we are with being an innocent victim, making our partner responsible for our feelings and behaviors.

Specific topics include:
Why we choose our partners.
The meaning of the begging-bowl syndrome.
The origins of control issues and what we can do about them
The clear difference between genuine love and addictive attachments.
How sexual issues reflect our emotional conflicts.
The tendency to repeat compulsively self-sabotaging patterns of behavior.
The illusion of reforming our partner, and how to take responsibility for ourselves.
Our resistance to intimacy, commitment, and love, and how it reflects our difficulty in loving ourself.
