Platonico: Descubre Como La Ciencia Del Apego Te Ayudara a Hacer Amigos (y a Cuidar Los Que Ya Tienes) / Platonic
Description:
This instant New York Times bestseller shows us how important friendships are to our emotional well-being and reveals how attachment theory shapes our choices when making friends. Friendship is as necessary as love: With this novel approach, Dr. Marisa G. Franco shows us how important friendships are and how to enhance and value them like never before. Attachment theory applies to friends too! How do we make and keep friends in an age of distraction, burnout, and chaos—especially in a society that often values romantic love at the expense of other relationships? Making new friends and deepening lasting relationships is possible at any age; in fact, it's essential. Forging lasting bonds with others isn't an exact science, but it does take work. The good news is that there are ways to improve the quantity and quality of your relationships using insights from attachment theory and the latest scientific research on friendship. In Platonic, Dr. Marisa G. Franco discusses the latest, often counterintuitive, findings on friendship bonds. For example, why your friends don't text you back (it's not because they hate you!) or the myth of "spontaneous friendships" (making friends, like cultivating any relationship, takes effort!). As the author explains, to make and keep friends, you must know your attachment style (secure, anxious, or avoidant): that's the key to discovering what works (and what fails) in your friendships. Combining recent research with interviews, personal stories, and practical advice, Platonic offers a clear and practical plan for forging strong and lasting connections with others, and thus becoming happier and more fulfilled people in the process.
