In "How To Love", Dr. Gordon Livingston digs deep and challenges readers to assess their choices in how and whom to love, placing the responsibiltiy of succesful or failed relationships on the individual choosing to love.
It begins with "first deserve, then desire", a thought that requires each of us who wants to love to first be lovable. It's an easy yet gut wrenching read when you realize that the immature, anxiety prone "jerk" in the relationship just might be YOU. But it also comforts the broken-hearted while teaching the newly loving person that it's ok to love all the way. By pointing out the less desireable personalities traits to avoid and the personality traits to look for when choosing whom we will love, loving well looks within reach.
You can skim through "How To Love" on Google Books.
