Why do we behave as we do, if it doesn't get us what we want? Can we balance our needs for closeness and for independence? Can we understand our emotional history and go beyond it? How do we negotiate our needs with those of other people? Can we become the lover, partner, or friend we long to be? Gay, straight, old, young; we want our relationships to \"work.\" Through a variety of moving, personal stories, a rare breadth of well-founded ideas, and her own inspiring belief in the rewards of love, Stephanie Dowrick shows how possible it is to experience the pleasures of self-acceptance--and the lasting joy of satisfying connections with others.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Stephanie Dowrick\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1760111473\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781760111472\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Allen \u0026amp; Unwin\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/01\/2015\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 344\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.10lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.10h x 6.00w x 1.20d","brand":"Stephanie Dowrick","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43989472968959,"sku":"9781760111472","price":22.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_644471d0-2364-4445-bdf7-dd6b276c1f2a.jpg?v=1683299702","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/intimacy-solitude-stephanie-dowrick-9781760111472","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
