Establishing and maintaining a meaningful, satisfying, and enduring intimate relationship can be elusive for many people. Time and again, they are drawn to lovers with whom the relationship is
futile, ending with hurt feelings and regrets. In this work, Nina Brown shares her longtime experience as a professional counselor to help those who ask: "Why do I keep picking unsuitable
lovers?" Brown calls them "dead-end lovers," and in this work she shows us, not only how to spot them early and avoid them, but also what it is--what psychological needs we have --that attracts
us to them.
