In all kinds of contexts, nonmonogamous happiness is erased. From the ubiquitous “friend who tried it once and it didn’t end well” to Dan Savage’s long-term jokes about never being invited to a polyamorous third wedding anniversary, we are repeatedly assured that nonmonogamy leads to misery.\r\n \r\nIn “real” love, we are taught to expect the opposite: to expect happiness. When we want to ask if someone’s relationship is going well, we ask if they are “happy with” their partner. We might even ask whether their partner makes them happy. But what does love have to do with happiness? Doesn’t love have space to accommodate the full range of emotional experience?\r\n \r\nCarrie Jenkins thinks it does, or at least it can. She draws connections between the expectation that love will make us happy and the undue focus on positive emotions to the exclusion of “negative” ones. She argues that love—monogamous or otherwise—might better aim at being eudaimonic than at being happy, and that we have a better chance of achieving this if we are able to make relationship choices free from the prejudices and distortions that lead to an unduly rosy view of monogamy and an unduly miserable picture of the alternatives.","brand":"None","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46153154232497,"sku":"9781990869167","price":13.95,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Kobo eBook","offer_id":46153154265265,"sku":"14e0048d-7dfa-3d8c-96e2-d82cda9e09f2","price":8.69,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0655\/8980\/5233\/files\/1_9115a50d-5fcc-459e-903a-746bd4336c97.jpg?v=1763717260"},{"product_id":"if-the-buddha-dated","title":"If the Buddha Dated: A Handbook for Finding Love on a Spiritual Path","description":"\u003cb\u003eZen and the art of falling in love . . .\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAt once practical, playful, and spiritually sound, this book is about creating a new love story in your life.

He has found that many couples start out believing they like the same things, see people the same way, and share a united take on the world. But inevitably differences crop up, and it can be profoundly discouraging to find that one’s partner sees a person, situation, or decision completely differently. Although many relationships flounder at this point, Creighton shows that this can actually be an opportunity to forge stronger ties. In \u003cem\u003eLoving through Your Differences\u003c\/em\u003e, he draws on the latest research in cognitive science and developmental psychology to show how we invent our realities with our perceptual minds. He then provides clear, concrete tools for shifting our perceptions and reframing our responses. The result moves couples out of the fear and alienation of “your way or my way” and into a deep understanding of the other that allows for an “our way.” As Creighton shows, this way of being together, based on the reality of individuality rather than the illusion of sameness, sets the stage for long-term excitement, discovery, and fulfillment.","brand":"None","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46154184392881,"sku":"9781608685660","price":24.95,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Kobo eBook","offer_id":46154184425649,"sku":"094929ba-6fc6-3b73-9e72-3b71405b7665","price":14.19,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0655\/8980\/5233\/files\/1_4ac6acc4-42b7-4127-8a32-3c3587e3f2fd.jpg?v=1763637787"},{"product_id":"a-polyamory-devotional","title":"A Polyamory Devotional: 365 Daily Reflections for the Consensually Nonmonogamous","description":"\u003cp\u003ePolyamory can be fun, sweet and even liberating.

She herself has also been wed for 22 years and has seen both the highs and lows of matrimony in her own marriage as well as the marriages of those close to her. While the national divorce rate hovers around the 50% threshold, there is a lot of chatter that marriage as we know it is an outdated institution--that we are too selfish, too unwilling to make sacrifices, and too misguided by elevated expectations of happiness to make marriage work.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhile these points may hold some validity, a lot of this chatter is nothing new. So what's causing so many divorces and, perhaps even more importantly, what are we to do about it if we want marriage to survive? Drawing from both her professional career and personal life, Toler sees that the biggest impediment to marriage these days is that couples decide to take the plunge based almost entirely on the most irrational criteria: falling in love. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eMaking Marriage Work\u003c\/i\u003e doesn't suggest that love has nothing to do with marriage at all; rather, Toler says that love by itself is simply not enough to make marriages survive.
