The notification that lights up your phone at night isn't the problem-it's the three seconds it takes for your
actual relationship to feel insufficient that reveals the real cost of comparison. Part of the Relationship Reality
Series, Roland Blackwell's insightful book explores the psychological mechanism that turns curated social
media posts into weapons against your own partnership, and why the physical sting of comparison arrives
before conscious thought.
When you scroll past another couple's Paris proposal or surprise anniversary trip, the images stop being neutral
information and become evidence in a case you're building against your own life. Relationship Comparison
Trap is not a social media detox guide, a communication repair manual, or a gratitude journal template. Instead,
it unpacks the specific cognitive distortions that make you measure your Tuesday night reality against someone
else's once-a-year highlight reel.
Through real therapy sessions and late-night scroll scenarios, you will confront the hidden mechanics of
relational comparison:
- The 11:47 PM Test: Why your relationship feels most inadequate when you're lying beside your partner
in the dark, phone glowing, measuring your ordinary against someone else's extraordinary.
This book delivers the interrupt patterns that break the comparison spiral before it poisons your present, the
recognition tools for physical tells that arrive before thought, and the cognitive override that stops you from
building evidence screens against your own partnership. Start reading Relationship Comparison Trap today and
reclaim the relationship you have from the phantom one living in your scroll feed.

Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.

To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.

You shall send back the goods or hand them over to California Books, Fort Wayne, Indiana, U.S.A., without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.

The right of withdrawal does not apply to:
- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
- The supply of digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium (e.g. on a CD or DVD) if you accepted when you placed your order that we could start to deliver it, and that you could not withdraw once delivery had started.
