Do you suspect the person you are dating or are in a long-term relationship with is emotionally unavailable? Worse yet, have you been called "emotionally unavailable"?

Relationships need emotional intimacy to survive. Unfortunately, many couples struggle and eventually separate because one or both of the partners aren’t able to express emotional intimacy.

The cycle of bad relationships isn't going to end unless you address this issue. Dating an emotionally unavailable partner is exhausting and hurtful; a long-term relationship with an emotionally unavailable partner can be disheartening and unfulfilling. Don’t let this be you.

If you're tired of being told emotional unavailability is a relationship death sentence, then this two-part, easy-to-listen-to audiobook will not only help you to understand and recognize emotional unavailability, it will help you find the solution.

The Cure for Emotional Unavailability will help you:

  • Discover the reason why people become emotionally unavailable.
  • Recognize the real signs of emotional unavailability and separate fact from fiction.
  • Understand both the passive and aggressive types of emotional unavailability.
  • Learn about the differences in behavior between dating an emotionally unavailable partner and having a long-term relationship with one.
  • Become emotionally aware.
  • Learn practical ways to practice self-compassion.
  • Learn how to deal with defense mechanisms.
  • Stop your thoughts from controlling you.
  • Embrace your value and experience healthy relationships.

It is possible for you to discover the source of emotional unavailability, heal, and have positive, successful relationships. Buy a copy today and start healing the relationships that matter to you.

Great lists. Good way to give yourself a self-assessment on emotional availability and get a list of possible reasons why. Curious where to go now besides a counselor to do more learning.

Fine overview-lacking depth

Loved, loved loved it! I want more. She gets to the heart of the matter so well. I found myself having many light bulb moments. Traits that are so often (wrongly, I think) linked to Narcissistic Personality Disorder are well explained and make more sense to me being associated with emotional unavailability. Well done - hope to see more of this author in the near future.

So impressed!!!

In a 21 year marriage that after 3 years it was like a light went off.
For the next 18 years wondered why the "relationship" was the way it was.
I for sure contributed my fair share of dysfunction.
Was my kids who woke me up. They said no matter what you do it will never change.
This book was a Godsend. Now I will begin the difficult and painful path towards healing.

This book really helped me look at my own behaviors and identify others as emotionally unavailable. I’ll continue to listen to this book over the years to get better at healing certain aspects I struggle with. How am I just learning about this subject in my mid 30’s?!

So helpful!

I just finished listening to this book and found it very enlightening and relevant to my situation. I would love to access the additional resources (worksheets, detailed lessons) mentioned in the book. But the website that was given, www.thepositiverelationship.com cannot be reached.

Very enlightening book but no website as mentioned

She explains everything in details and provides many examples of behaviors i didn't realize were a response to childhood trauma

Discovered my inner critic

Dry narration, but 100% worth the listen. Many helpful tools & I'm sure I'll listen to it again

It's a keeper

One of the few self help books where I walked away seeing myself from a brand new perspective, while also being weirdly accurate. A lot to take in. Very happy that I read this - likely could have saved some past relationships if I read it sooner.

First book to really nail a lot of my behaviors.

I like how spit on the examples were and able to help me decide if emotional unavailability is what I have been dealing with.

After allowing an amazing relationship too become too scary to continue, I perpetrated behaviors that encouraged conflict which gave me justification for why I should end it. Unfortunately, after the dust settled and it was over, only then did I finally understand it was my own baggage that had created most of the issues.

Instead of likely losing another relationship to the same behavior, I needed to find a way out of the cycle.

This book (audio) walked me through many of my behaviors and gave me the insight to recognize what I specifically needed to change.

It was both important to me that I never torture another person with my lack of availability after they were willing to emotionally invest in me.

This book describes bad habits I formed over a lifetime.
