The Love Fix: Reclaiming Intimacy in a Disconnected World

by Rachel Thompson

  

€ 23.75 

ISBN: 9781529927955

Situationships, ghosting, therapy speak, monogamy or non-monogamy... Dating is hard. But why? Dating & sex journalist Rachel Thompson investigates the data science and mindset behind modern relationships.

Casting her gaze back to the decade since Tinder first launched, The Love Fix explores how apps have shaped our expectations, self-esteem, and search for intimacy - with particular emphasis on the experiences of queer people, people of colour, people with mental illnesses and other marginalised groups. Weaving true stories of people looking for love with cutting-edge research and interviews from sociologists and mental health professionals, this book will help you to:






understand how dating apps really work (or don't!)
recognise the psychology behind prospective matches' behaviour
honour your own needs and protect your mental health while dating
find your way back towards intimacy, with others and yourself
