Förlagets beskrivning
Sometimes when you look around, it seems as if the entire world is coupled up. Family, friends, that cute twosome holding hands walking down the street, everyone is either married or in a serious, committed relationship. If you're not one of those people, the world can seem a lonely place. But why is that? Why can't a person be both single and happy?
Xavier Amador, coauthor of When Someone You Love Is Depressed, and Judith Kiersky attack this question in this clear and wonderfully written book. Using case studies and drawing on years of clinical work as psychologists and professors, the authors investigate the basis of both men and women's dissatisfaction as singles. Tracing the roots of the stigma of aloneness, they examine the obstacles that prevent singles from being content--everything from family and friends to fear and ambivalence. They then describe the four stages of being single, and finally, they give you the tools that will enable you to "be single in the present." Unlike other self-help books dealing with singledom, the goal of this book is not to get you married; it's to figure out why you're single and to help you gain balance and happiness as you are.
Whether you've never married or are divorced or widowed, whether you wish to remain single or to eventually have a meaningful relationship, this book will guide you in bypassing the "cultural scripts" that demand you need a mate to be fulfilled. The authors show that life can be great on your own. --Jenny Brown
