When — And Why — Love Doesn’t Work
Author: Howard M. Halpern, Ph.D.
Are you in love — or addicted? How to know when to call it quits…and how to find the courage to call it quits.
Are you unable to leave a love relationship even though it gives you more pain than joy?  Your judgment and self – respect tell you to end it, but still, to your dismay, you hang on.  You are addicted — to a person.  Now there is an insightful, step – by – step guide to breaking that addiction — and surviving the split.  Drawing on dozens of provocative case histories, psychotherapist Howard Helpern explains to you:
- Why you can get addicted to a person.
- Why and how you may try to deceive yourself. (“He really loves me, he just doesn’t know how to show it.”
- How you can recognize the symptoms of a bad relationship.
- How to deal with the power moves and guilt trips your partner uses to hold you.
- Why strong feelings of jealousy do not mean you are “in love.”
- How to get through the agonizing breakup period — without going back.
- How not to get caught in such a painful relationship again.
