Synopsis
In our increasingly fast-paced world, the search for love is more difficult than ever. The problem, Shmuley explains, isn't that people want to fall in love any less than they used to, but that society itself is training them not to. What was once described as love is now scorned as 'co-dependency'. The media is filled with the same message: Look out for Number 1, your first obligation is to yourself. By programming us to be self-reliant and autonomous, we're neglecting those qualities - sacrifice, compromise, generosity, vulnerability - that falling in love has always been founded on.
Why Can't I Fall in Love? offers a set of provocative and surprising strategies to help singles throw off their bad habits and find love in the real world.
