{"product_id":"poly-a-disaster-a-story-about-sacrificing-reason-for-love","title":"Poly A Disaster: A story about sacrificing reason for love","description":"What begins as an attempt to build a life rooted in love, honesty, and freedom slowly unravels into emotional chaos, betrayal, manipulation, and the devastating loss of self.\nPoly A Disaster is a raw and deeply personal memoir that explores the complicated realities behind modern relationships, polyamory, emotional trauma, and the dangerous ways unresolved wounds can shape the choices we make in the name of love. Told with brutal honesty and emotional vulnerability, this memoir pulls readers into a world where the lines between sacrifice, loyalty, control, and self-destruction become dangerously blurred.\nAt the center of the story is a woman desperately searching for connection, validation, and emotional safety after a lifetime of surviving trauma. What initially appeared to be an opportunity to experience expanded love and deeper intimacy soon revealed itself to be something far more painful. Jealousy, insecurity, emotional manipulation, fractured boundaries, betrayal, and toxic relationship dynamics slowly began eroding her identity piece by piece.\nAs new partners entered the relationship, the emotional landscape became increasingly unstable. What was presented as openness and honesty often concealed power struggles, imbalance, emotional neglect, and hidden pain. Through explosive conflicts, public humiliation, heartbreak, abandonment, and emotional exhaustion, the author found herself trapped in cycles that forced her to confront uncomfortable truths about herself, her relationships, and the unresolved trauma she had spent years trying to outrun.\nBut Poly A Disaster is more than a story about relationships falling apart.\nIt is a story about survival.\nIt is about the devastating consequences of abandoning your own intuition in order to preserve love. It is about shrinking yourself so others can feel secure. It is about confusing chaos with passion and self-sacrifice with loyalty. Most importantly, it is about the painful but necessary process of waking up and realizing that love should never require the destruction of your identity.\nWith unfiltered transparency, the author shares the moments many people are too ashamed to admit aloud — staying too long, accepting emotional mistreatment, tolerating disrespect, and believing that enduring pain somehow proved devotion. Readers will witness the emotional toll of toxic attachment, the loneliness that can exist even inside relationships, and the internal battle between wanting to be chosen and learning to finally choose yourself.\nDespite its heartbreak, Poly A Disaster is ultimately a story of resilience, awakening, and transformation. Beneath the chaos is a woman rediscovering her strength, reclaiming her voice, and learning that healing often begins the moment you stop abandoning yourself for the comfort of others.\nThis memoir will resonate deeply with anyone who has ever loved too hard, ignored their instincts, lost themselves inside a relationship, or fought their way back from emotional devastation. Honest, heartbreaking, and empowering, Poly A Disaster challenges readers to rethink the difference between love and self-abandonment while offering hope to those still searching for themselves in the aftermath of broken relationships.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: B0H2MQZF14\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: BVV.B0H2MQZF14.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Townsend, Anise\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: The item shows wear from consistent use, but it remains in good condition and works perfectly.
