Love Addicted: One Woman's Spiritual Journey Through Emotional Dependency - Paperback

by Debora M. Ricks (Author)

The love addicted woman falls in love easily with men she barely knows. She is needy, controlling and insecure. She confuses sex with love and wants with needs. She engages in high risk behaviors and has a high tolerance for suffering. She believes she needs a man-not to enhance a fulfilling, purposeful life-but as an asylum from life. Fear, which is rooted in a deep sense of inadequacy, dupes her into believing she is nothing without a relationship. And so she desperately searches for love and acceptance everywhere but where it can be found, within. Until she heals. Love Addicted is the story of a self-confessed love junkie whose search for love--in the eyes and arms of men--ultimately leads to the healing of her mind and spirit.
