Why Being Your True Self is Your Key to Finding True Love

Jan. 15, 2013 - PRLog -- Beginning in childhood, people learn to pack away pieces of themselves in order shield them from the anger, mocking and disapproval of parents, siblings and peers. Before long, they have constructed a watered down version of self. This inauthentic self is what Carl Rogers calls the Ideal Self, which is the self people construct that is based upon what they think others expect them to be.

When people bring this watered down self to the dating scene, they're shocked to find that they either can’t attract a partner at all or the relationships they form feel incomplete and lacking in vitality and genuine intimacy. How can a person create a satisfying love relationship when we they aren't bringing their true selves to the table?! Relationships based upon inauthenticity are ultimately doomed to fail.

But as Dr. Jamie Turndorf asserts, it is only by allowing their true authentic selves (warts and all) to shine through that someon can attract another person who loves them fully. In order for this to occur, they must learn to accept and love thmeselves first.

In this show, Dr. Turndorf will be interviewing Ken Page, LCSW, author of Psychology Today's blog: "Finding Love,” which has received over 1 million reads. Ken is the founder of Deeper Dating, a dating event which has brought insight and intimacy to the lives of thousands of single men and women of all ages.
