About this listen

Women choose the wrong men not out of naivety or lack of maturity, but because of a much deeper force: the biology of attraction.

This book combines evolutionary psychology of love, anthropology, and history to explain how genes influence falling in love and often lead us into relationships with men who are attractive in the short term but unsuitable for long-term partnerships.

From Cleopatra and Helen of Troy to the “bad boys” of film, music, and social media, the same pattern repeats itself: the tension between the chemistry of love —that evolutionary drug that releases dopamine and clouds judgment— and the cultural demands of a stable relationship. Throughout the book, you will find historical, mythological, and contemporary examples that illustrate why the attraction to the “wrong man” persists, and you will discover practical strategies for choosing a partner more consciously, learning to distinguish between genetic attraction and life's project.

THE TRAP OF ROMANTIC LOVE is a revealing work for those who wish to understand better love, infidelity, relationship choices, and the dilemmas between biology and culture. A book that enlightens and provokes: inviting reflection, debate, and rethinking our beliefs about love, attraction, and relationships.

Buy now THE TRAP OF ROMANTIC LOVE to discover the truth behind attraction and transform your way of seeing love. Don’t let your genes decide for you. Learn to recognize the signs, understand the paradox, and choose more consciously.
