Es normal que todas las parejas sufran crisis, pero lo importante es tener los recursos necesarios para superarlas. Porque cuando permanecemos atrapados en esa situación, los conflictos y la confusión son inevitables. En esta obra, el autor analiza las 'pasiones' más frecuentes de la pareja: las emociones explosivas, el engaño y la infidelidad, la sexualidad tóxica, la competitividad, la descalificación y, al mismo tiempo, nos ofrece las herramientas más eficaces para repensar y activar los recursos que están en nuestro interior. Bernardo Stamateas acaba con varios mitos de la idealización romántica de la pareja y brinda ejemplos y estrategias para que podamos distinguir el amor que nos alimenta del que nos intoxica y destruye.
