Forelsker du dig, men frygter intimitet? Er du træt af at få at vide, at du er for sensitiv? Har du svært ved at respektere en mindre sensitiv partner? Har du opgivet at få et kærlighedsliv, fordi du er bange for at være for sart til at kunne tåle skrammerne?Særligt sensitive anses ofte for generte og deres tilbageholdenhed misforstås ofte som svaghed og derfor møder de specielle udfordringer i kærlighedslivet, som her udforskes med nyttige råd både til de særligt sensitive eller til partnere, som ikke er det.Statistikker viser, at halvdelen af det, der afgør en skilsmisse, er genetisk bestemt temperament. Og hvis du er mellem de 20 procent, der er født særligt sensitiv, er risikoen for et ulykkeligt parforhold særligt høj. Dit fint indstillede nervesystem, som sanser enhver detalje og reflekterer dybt over tingene kunne være en romantisk fordel, hvis du og din partner forstod dig bedre, men uden den forståelse kan din sensitivitet gøre dine nære forhold smertefulde og komplicerede.Bogen er baseret på Elaine Arons pionerarbejde omkring temperament og intimitet og fuld af praktisk hjælp til særligt sensitive, som søger sundere og gladere parforhold. Den indeholder et testskema, så du kan vurdere dig selv eller din partner.

Det er normalt at have et følsomt nervesystem - 15-20 % af befolkningen hører til denne gruppe, som ofte ringeagtes og/eller ringeagter sig selv i Vestens udadvendte kulturer.Bogens budskab er, at sensitive mennesker er i besiddelse af kvaliteter, som samfundet har brug for. Det er f.eks. kvaliteter som indføling og kreativitet. Elaine Aron giver de sensitive mulighed for en forbedret selvforståelse, præsenterer brugbare redskaber til at reparere fortidens traumer og bogen lærer de særligt sensitive at begå sig og trives.Elaine Aron er en internationalt anerkendt ekspert på området og bogen er blevet en klassiker inden for sit felt.
