“Just because something is addictive doesn't mean that you will get addicted to it. But . . . if your stomach ties up in knots while you count the seconds waiting for a phone call from that special someone . . . if you hear a loud buzzing in your ears when you see a certain person's car (or one just like it) . . . if your eyes burn when you hear a random love song or see a couple holding hands . . . if you suffer the twin agonies of craving for and withdrawing from a series of unrequited crushes or toxic relationships . . . if you always feel like you're clutching at someone's ankle and dragged across the floor as they try to leave the room . . . welcome to the club.”
― Ethlie Ann Vare

“Maybe [the ocean and I] were on the same side, comprised of the same things, water mostly, also mystery. The ocean swallowed things up--boats, people--but it didn't look outside itself for fulfillment. It could take whatever skimmed its surface or it could leave it. In its depths already lived a whole world of who-knows-what. It was self-sustaining. I should be like that. It made me wonder what was inside of me.”
― Melissa Broder, The Pisces

“I liked it. I craved it. I wanted more and I took it. I took it like I needed it, like my life had a limit and if I didn't get as much of it as I could, I'd quit breathing the next instant.”
― Kristen Ashley, Until the Sun Falls from the Sky

“And then he's somewhere inside of me, each thrust rattling my ribcage like a bottle of pills. I'm somewhere outside of myself, thinking about lust鈥� about my slutty white sheets and all the men who like to hide in them.”
― Kris Kidd

“Two sad eyes and one skanky smile, I practically pulse with the promise of promiscuity. I'm easy to catch, but too slippery to hold onto. Men love a challenge if the prize is guaranteed. I know how to start a fight while deepthroating a white flag.”
― Kris Kidd

“Then I drop to my knees because I can't find a decent enough reason not to, because reluctance rarely stands a chance against repeated behavior.”
― Kris Kidd

“Love addicts often pick partners who are emotionally unavailable because deep down, they don鈥檛 feel worthy of having a healthy, loving relationship. A love addict craves and obsesses about becoming enmeshed or 鈥榦ne鈥� with another human being at all costs, even if it means putting themselves in potential danger.”
― Christopher Dines, The Kindness Habit: Transforming our Relationship to Addictive Behaviours

― Shary Hauer, Insatiable: A Memoir of Love Addiction

“I was dating the same man over and over again, expecting a different relationship. Where's the sanity in that!?”
― Grace W. Wroldson, So You Love an . . . Alcoholic?: Lessons for a Codependent

― Christopher Dines, Super Self Care: How to Find Lasting Freedom from Addiction, Toxic Relationships and Dysfunctional Lifestyles

“Drug addicts will likely suffer from other addictive or dysfunctional behaviours. Seldom will you meet a drug addict who does not exhibit multiple addictive behaviours. Because drug addiction and eating disorders are impossible to ignore so are often in the splotlight, often subtler addictive behaviours, such as love addiction, compulsive underearning and sex addictions, may be neglected.”
― Christopher Dines, Drug Addiction Recovery: The Mindful Way

“Addiction to love is pure hate.

“Unfortunately, incest is still quite common and is rife in families with a history of addiction. It is not unusual to hear of a daughter being subjected to incest on the part of her alcoholic father or grandfather, or the adult child of an alcoholic practising incest with her own children. Many recovering drug addicts, sex and love addicts or love avoidants have been victims of incest.”
― Christopher Dines, Drug Addiction Recovery: The Mindful Way
