Contributor(s):Author: Simeon Lindstrom Codependent partners are not necessarily together because they want to be - they are because they have to be.
If you've had difficulty with starting or maintaining relationships, issues with feeling jealous and possessive or find that your connections with others are more a source of distress than anything else, then this book is for you.
It may feel sometimes that an intense and serious connection with someone is proof of the depth of the feeling you have for one another.
But be careful, obsession and dependency is not the same as love.
In the codependent relationship, our affection and attention is coming from a place of fear and need.
As a result, the partners never really connect with each other.
They do endless, complicated dances around each others problems, but what they never do is make an honest human connection.
In codependent relationships, manipulation, guilt and resentment take the place of healthy, balanced affection.
Codependent partners are not necessarily together because they want to be, they are because they have to be, because they don't know how to live otherwise.
One partner may bring a history of abuse, a personality disorder or mental illness into a relationship; the ways the other partner responds to this may be healthy or not, but if they bring their own issues to the table too, they may find that the bond of their love is more accurately described as a shared and complementary dysfunction.
Remember, the relationships we are in can never be better than the relationships we have with ourselves.
Two unhappy people together never make a happy couple together.
We cannot treat other people in ways we have never taken the time to consider before, and we cannot communicate properly if we are not even sure what it is we need to communicate in the first place.
An individual with a mature, well-developed sense of themselves has the most to offer someone else.
They have their own lives, their own sense of sel.

Platforma de publicare independentă CreateSpace a fost un serviciu de autopublicare pentru autori independenți, cunoscut în primul rând pentru că îi ajută pe autori să publice și să distribuie cărți tipărite la cerere.
CreateSpace și-a schimbat serviciile la Kindle Direct Publishing (KDP).
CreateSpace și KDP fac ambele parte din platformele de autopublicare ale Amazon, iar autorii pot folosi KDP pentru a publica și distribui atât cărți electronice, cât și cărți tipărite.
Prin KDP, autorii își pot crea, publica și distribui cărțile la nivel global, ajungând la cititori prin rețeaua vastă a Amazon.
Dacă sunteți autor sau aspiră să publice o carte, poate doriți să explorați Kindle Direct Publishing (KDP) pentru nevoile dvs.
