The problem of relationship addiction is examined in this book and the author applies the addiction of sex, love, romance and relationships to her broader addiction theory. She investigates "sexual anorexia", sexual violence, the role of shame and guilt, the role of self-esteem, the myth of the cosmic mate, relationships as a "fix" and how these beliefs translate into an avoidance of intimacy.
