Publisher Description
Zing! Cupid’s arrow skewers a primitive part of the brain. Obediently, we fall in love amid showers of passionate fireworks, bond for a time … and then often get fed up with each other and grow irritable or numb. Perhaps we try to remodel our mate, seek solace online, or pursue a new love interest. Ancient sages recognized this biological snare and hinted at a way to dodge it: use lovemaking to balance one another and harmony arises naturally.
With an entertaining blend of personal experiences, the latest neuroscience, and forgotten insights from around the globe, Cupid’s Poisoned Arrow confronts current assumptions about sex and love and offers a refreshing, practical approach to sexuality.

Interesting research
I could not but help to truly feel sorry for the author. She and her husband have learned the hard way so to speak. I suspect brain chemistry is a little bit different for those of us who dated / courted in an “orthodox” way from the beginning. With a rock solid foundation perhaps we can better enjoy the fantastic highs, while remaining steadfastly committed through the subsequent lows and without being so emotionally fragile. Age old morality is after all based on thousands of years of experience. Trust what your grandmother said about dating and marriage. And as statistics on marriage success and happiness show, never ever live together before marriage.
