Books
We can be loved - and still not feel loved. Many people believe that if they behave the right way, say the right things, or make themselves more lovable, they will feel more loved. But this kind of reflexive thinking is fundamentally misguided, causing a disconnect that can lead to loneliness, depression, and self-doubt. Sonja Lyubomirsky, the world's preeminent expert on happiness, and Harry Reis, one of the world's leading experts on relationships and connection, have studied the complexities of well-being and love in depth. Truly feeling loved, they've discovered, differs widely from the actions that we usually associate with loving, being loved, and falling in love. Here, they present a radical, hopeful, and science-backed shift in how to think about love, revealing that feeling loved isn't about making ourselves more appealing, available, and lovable - it's about showing our full and vulnerable selves to others.
