How to Be an Adult in Love<br />

Letting Love in Safely and Showing It Recklessly<br />

David Richo<br />

Summary<br />

How to let love into our lives, and how to express that love to the world at large-the latest from a bestselling<br />

author.<br />

We were made to love and be loved. Loving ourselves and others is in our genetic code. It's nothing other than<br />

the purpose of our lives-but knowing that doesn't make it easy to do. We may find it a challenge to love<br />

ourselves. We may have a hard time letting love in from others. We're often afraid of getting hurt. It is also<br />

sometimes scary for us to share love with those around us-and love that isn't shared leaves us feeling flat and<br />

unfulfilled.<br />

David Richo provides the tools here for learning how to love in evolved adult ways-beginning with getting past<br />

the barriers that keep us from loving ourselves, then showing how we can learn to open to love others.<br />

The first challenge is that we have a hard time letting love in: recognizing it, accepting it from others. We're<br />

afraid of it, of getting hurt. The second, related problem is that we're unable to share love with those around usand<br />

love that isn't shared isn't truly love. The first step to learning to love a...<br />
