And they lived happily ever after… Fantasies, Myths, and The Wicked Truth About Love Does the search for the “love of your life” keep turning up empty? Been in one too many dead-end relationships? You say you haven’t found your “soulmate” – you’re not even sure what a soulmate is. If you’ve ever asked yourself “WHAT AM I DOING WRONG?” – you need to know the truth, the wicked truth about love. Many of us grow up believing that the man/woman of our dreams will magically appear one day, bells will ring, sparks will fly, and the two of you will ride off into the sunset together. According to human relations expert and sociologist Suzanne Ross if you believe this, “you need to wake up, because you obviously fell asleep reading that Harlequin novel or watching that Love Boat repeat and you’re dreaming!” In her new book, The Wicked Truth about Love: The Tangles of Desire (DOERS Publishing; May 2009) Ross explores the path we take to finding “true love”, but while love may indeed be true, the path is crooked and faulty. Why? Because if love is a mystery – and that’s okay – humans are also a mystery…to themselves! – and that’s not quite so good. The misconception is that we all operate under the belief that we are free-thinking, unique individuals who know our own mind, and act independently. The sad reality is that far too few – if any of us – actually fit this description. The choices we make, the reactions we have, the ideals and attributes of our “perfect mate” are actually the product of outside influences that condition our emotions, direct our goals and desires, and impact our responses. Join Jordan Mercedes as she interviews Suzanne Ross to find out more nuggets of truth about love!
