Many people have opinions on the subject of romantic relationships - why they're so hard to find and so difficult to maintain - but the real source of trouble isn't too complicated: it's that we are choosing our partners based on love, excitement, lust, attraction, neediness...on feelings. Instead of helping listeners find true love, Dr. Michael Bennett and his comedy-writing daughter Sarah reveal the practical, commonsense criteria for good partnerships that will allow real love to develop.

If you want to win, and win big, and, more importantly, keep what you work so hard for, you need a crystal-clear view of how the real world works - not how you wish it worked, but how it actually works.

A codependent relationship, to put it in simple terms, is a dysfunctional relationship. It is the kind of relationship where one person either supports or enables another person’s poor behaviors. Why do they do this? Because, they would rather cling to a relationship that is unhealthy. After all, being codependent is better than being alone, right? Wrong.

You’re always so sensitive”. “Why are you always so angry with me? We need to get you help”. “This is for your own good”. These are all common phrases you may hear from your mother. Guess what? She is likely to be a narcissist. All it takes is an understanding of your situation and the proper guidance to help move you down the path to recovery.

Still struggling from the effects of an abusive relationship? Many people do, and sadly, there is very little information available to be found online, in the written research, or with counsellors and therapists that can help. The "gaslight effect" is not officially recognized, nor is it widely even known. Even when it is accepted, recognized, and known, not many people seem to know what to do about it to heal it.

Publisher's Summary
From New York Times best-selling authors Michael I. Bennett, MD, and Sarah Bennett - an audiobook for teens that shows listeners that we all deal with crap in our lives and how to laugh at some of the things we can't control.
Being a teenager can suck. Your friends can become enemies, and your enemies can become friends. Your family can drive you crazy. School and teachers can be a drag. Your body is constantly changing. And everyone seems to tell you to "just be you". But just who is that?
With their open and honest approach, father-daughter team Michael I. Bennett and Sarah Bennett's audiobook is sure to appeal to teenagers and show them they aren't alone in dealing with fake friends, with parents who think they're "hip", and even how high school isn't everyone's glory days. Young listeners - and their parents - are sure to find this no-nonsense, real-life advice helpful, and it will help them realize that it's okay to talk to their parents and other advisors around them about big issues that might be uncomfortable to discuss.

Toxic people are all around us. In fact, it is estimated that one in 25 people in America have disorders that are linked with a lack of conscience. More often than not, they hide amongst those you’d suspect the least. They are master manipulators, incredibly skilled at luring and manipulating innocent targets into a relationship. Little by little, they become your everything, driving away everyone else. Why would you need anyone else? Are they not enough?

Superheroes don't start from glorious beginnings. Their origins are almost always marked by traumatic events that leave them helpless and scared. Batman witnessed his parents' murder. Superman was sent away from his dying planet with no one to guide him as he grew up. Orphaned Catwoman was forced to steal food to survive on the streets of Gotham. What makes these superheroes super is their determination to not be defined by helplessness. They embrace their origins, their flaws, and their mistakes and strive every day to become the best versions of themselves.

Story4 out of 5 stars 483
Other self-help books claim to reveal the path to happiness, but F*ck Feelings warns that convincing yourself that there is such a path will actually lead you to feel like a true failure. What the Bennetts can promise you is that you can manage any situation life throws at you if you can keep your sense of humor, bend your wishes to fit reality, restrain your feelings, manage bad behavior, and do what you think is right.

Toxic people are all around us. In fact, it is estimated that one in 25 people in America have disorders that are linked with a lack of conscience. More often than not, they hide amongst those you’d suspect the least. They are master manipulators, incredibly skilled at luring and manipulating innocent targets into a relationship. Little by little, they become your everything, driving away everyone else. Why would you need anyone else? Are they not enough?

Superheroes don't start from glorious beginnings. Their origins are almost always marked by traumatic events that leave them helpless and scared. Batman witnessed his parents' murder. Superman was sent away from his dying planet with no one to guide him as he grew up. Orphaned Catwoman was forced to steal food to survive on the streets of Gotham. What makes these superheroes super is their determination to not be defined by helplessness. They embrace their origins, their flaws, and their mistakes and strive every day to become the best versions of themselves.

Many people have opinions on the subject of romantic relationships - why they're so hard to find and so difficult to maintain - but the real source of trouble isn't too complicated: it's that we are choosing our partners based on love, excitement, lust, attraction, neediness...on feelings. Instead of helping listeners find true love, Dr. Michael Bennett and his comedy-writing daughter Sarah reveal the practical, commonsense criteria for good partnerships that will allow real love to develop.

The rules for living in the real world have changed, because the world we live in has changed. Much of the conventional wisdom the last generation has passed on just doesn't apply like it once did. If you want to win, and win big, and, more importantly, keep what you work so hard for, you need a crystal-clear view of how the real world works - not how you wish it worked, but how it actually works.

Mindfulness is not about complicated and otherworldly woo-woo spiritual practices. It doesn't require you to be a part of any religion or a movement. What mindfulness is about is living a good life (that's quite practical, right?), and this book is all about deepening your awareness, getting to know yourself, and developing attitudes and mental habits that will make you not only a successful and effective person in life, but a happy and wise one as well.

Are you the Fallback Girl? If you've ever found yourself in a relationship that feels and seemingly looks like one, but you're struggling with commitment, or you've been in the ambiguous territory of a "casual relationship", you've likely tried to change them, wondered what you did to cause this, what you can do to win their love and commitment, or even whether you're going crazy.
