Love Is Not Enough by Mark Manson

3.0

Fairly basic but helpful advice given in an endearingly friendly manner to people stumbling thru catastrophic but common relationship difficulties.

It's funny how things seem so obvious from the outside, but when you're in them yourself, you're so unaware of the blunders you are committing (otherwise you wouldn't commit them, duh).

Show compassion to people dealing with severe relationship difficulties and just listen. If it's you, be kind to yourself.

The primary takeaway is, unsurprisingly, to state your boundaries and adhere to them. Healthy boundaries lead to healthy mental states and lives by avoiding unhealthy relationships.
