Book Description
Hidden forces—memories of past poor or hurtful relationships—drive repressed feelings and emotions that are often outside our awareness. Though we want to love and be loved, to nurture and be nurtured, those forces can wreak havoc and cause relationship sabotage, destroying couples and even whole families. The scenario is so common, explains therapist Matta, that often people get divorced without even fully understanding why, or what is was that came between them. In many cases, what it was were the lingering but unconscious memories of lessons learned as far back as childhood. These lessons may have no true bearing or justification in the current relationship, yet they can strongly affect it, fueling marital games, extra-marital affairs, addictions, poor parenting practices and a host of other harmful actions. Matta argues that we can learn to recognize these imprints and move past them to build or keep rewarding relationships. His book makes us aware, and gives us the tools to break the cycle.

Book Description
Unique, compelling, and at times ridiculous insights and lessons from the realm of romance. Why is dating so hard? Has Disney screwed us up? How many times have you entered into a new relationship immediately convinced that this person was “the one”? At last, you’ve met the partner who will “complete you,” make you feel like all those previous terrible relationships were somehow worth it, and finally complete your fantasy rom-com happy ending—your inner Jennifer Aniston already squealing with delight. How many times has that relationship abruptly veered off course, leaving your heart the victim of yet another romantic fatality? In her first book, Love and . . . , Jen Kim turns to science to make sense of why, after three decades, she hasn’t been able to find lasting love. She puts a lens to the destructive pathology of her relationships, including her current long-term relationship with a partner who “just isn’t ready” for the next level . . . and, honestly, may never be. Will they or won’t they end up together? You’ll learn the prognosis by the final page. Love and . . . is a relationship self-help book that doesn’t want you to change, mostly because a) it’s really hard to change, and b) you probably don’t want to. Kim focuses on the science and psychology behind why we behave the way we do, reserving judgement for no one, but herself.

Book Description
LoveSmart is a guidebook of insight about the sources of relationship disharmony. This book escorts the love-game through the field of depth psychology, producing a powerful game plan for relationship success.The full story of relationship conflict and disharmony goes much deeper than people realize. How we feel about our partner is a reflection of our own relationship with our self. This book shows us how to deepen and harmonize our connection to self, thereby enhancing our relationship with our partner.Specific topics include: why we choose our partner; 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 compulsively repeat self-sabotaging patterns of behavior; the illusion of reforming our partner; and how to accept each other as equals.LoveSmart presents theory, examples, and exercises that show exactly how we transfer and project our own unresolved emotional issues on to our partner. It also reveals how we can unconsciously be identifying with our partner through the mutual agony of self-defeating processes, outcomes, and expectations. We learn how we can be aligned with being an innocent victim or bystander, which then, to our detriment, prompts us to make our partner, loved ones, and friends largely responsible for our feelings and behaviors.This book shows us how our emotional perceptions and interpretations can be highly subjective and misleading, and it reveals where these interpretations come from in our past. It has been comforting to believe that other people are responsible for how we feel and behave, but that belief has created a nation of victims amid the carnage of broken relationships.LoveSmart provides the most comprehensive understanding available of relationship dynamics. It is intended primarily to solve problems in romantic relationships but its principles also apply to friendships as well as to work-related issues and family relationships.Achieving peace with others involves a breakthrough in understanding why our relationships are not working and why we feel defeated, neglected, and dissatisfied. We are more likely to achieve this breakthrough with the help of the best insight from depth psychology.
