For those suffering from divorce, a breakup, or heartache, “Kingma deals with love so directly . . . [she] brings immediate comfort to anyone in pain” (LA Weekly).
Originally published in 1987 and continuously in print since then, Coming Apart has been an important resource for hundreds of thousands of readers going through the devastation of unraveling relationships.
Love is great; a broken heart, not so much. Usually accompanied by insomnia, loss of appetite, and depression, the end of a relationship is a hard time for anyone. Getting over a breakup requires grit and understanding. This breakup first aid kit helps you get through heartbreak without falling apart—and with your self-esteem intact.
While only time can heal wounds, understanding what transpired in each of our relationships is what allows us to finally let go and move on. With a refreshing perspective on relationships, Coming Apart helps us understand that all relationships come with lessons to be learned. So, rather than obsess over your ex, explore the critical facets of relationship breakdowns:
· Why we choose who we choose
· What relationships are really about
· The life span of love
· How to get through the end
· A personal workbook to process and move forward
“A profoundly intelligent, compassionate, and kindhearted healing process that is highly transformative and which will literally weave you back to wholeness in all those places where you've felt betrayed, battered, broken, and bruised.” —from the foreword by Katherine Woodward Thomas, author of the New York Times bestseller Conscious Uncoupling

Quotes

  • Ariadnehas quoted3 years ago
    Relationships do end—even though we don't want to believe it. Whether you have obscured that truth from yourself by having an affair or enduring years of boredom, whether you have been starved for emotional communion or have never been able to recover from a move—if you think your relationship is ending, you're probably right
  • Ariadnehas quoted3 years ago
    farewell. It doesn't please me to list marriage counseling as one of the indicators of a relationship that is ending, but I think it is important to note that generally people seek therapy only when they have already crossed their own interior limits of problem-solving capabilities
  • Ariadnehas quoted3 years ago
    Because affairs touch us at some of our deepest and most vulnerable emotional levels, we tend to treat them as ultimate reflections on the character of the persons who engage in them.
    People who indulge in affairs may indeed be selfish, self-indulgent, and inconsiderate. But what is also and more importantly true is that affairs may not be so much a statement about individual character as they are about the quality of the relationships upon which they inevitably impinge
