Overview of Why Love Hurts

Challenging traditional psychological explanations, this provocative 2012 analysis asks: Why do commitment-phobic relationships and emotional inequality between genders persist in our consumer-driven romance culture?

The Paradox We Don't Talk About

Why does finding love feel harder than ever before? We swipe through endless profiles, we have more freedom than any generation in history, yet so many of us end up heartbroken, confused, or emotionally exhausted. The self-help industry tells us to work on ourselves, fix our "commitment issues," or learn better communication skills. But what if the problem isn't us? What if modern love hurts because the entire architecture of romance has fundamentally transformed? This isn't about individual psychology-it's about how social forces have reshaped intimacy itself. Understanding this shift won't make love painless, but it might help us stop blaming ourselves for struggles that are, in many ways, built into the system.
