The Love You Were Wired For
The relationships that cost you the most were not random. They were familiar. And familiar, to a nervous system shaped by early experiences of conditional, chaotic, or inconsistent love, feels exactly like home.
This is a book about that familiarity, and the wiring beneath it. About the beliefs instilled in you before you were old enough to question them, and the way they have subconsciously shaped every relationship you have had since. Who you chose, how long you stayed, what you were willing to endure, and what you told yourself it meant about you when it ended.
It offers the answer most healing books avoid-where the pattern began, what it has cost you, and what it genuinely takes to change it. That is a harder answer, but it is also the only one worth having.Frankie Riley is a psychologist and writer who spent years understanding how people give and accept love the way they do, and years more learning to live differently in relationships herself. This book is the science, the philosophy, and the reckoning. The understanding and the grief. The slow and messy work of becoming someone who finally experiences love from solid ground.
This book is for anyone who has ever stayed too long, loved too hard, given too much-and is finally ready to understand why.
