Falling for Potential in Relationships
This chapter explores the tendency to fall for a person's potential in relationships and the attachment styles and cognitive dissonance that can contribute to this behavior. It discusses the concept of a fantasy bond and how it can create a false sense of intimacy based on potential rather than reality. The chapter also touches on rushing into new relationships after a breakup and the desire to chase the feeling of being in love.
