Singles Reflections Recommended Reads
Oprah has hers. Being single is an opportunity to discover who you are and who you want to become. It’s a chance to look at where you are and where you want to go. It may be a time to heal from issues you haven’t fully addressed. It’s a time to learn, grow, and have fun. Above all, it’s a time to accept and love yourself, and to become more of the person you were meant to be. If you've been searching for answers like I have, here's a good place to start.

The Intimacy Factor : The Ground Rules for Overcoming the Obstacles to Truth, Respect, and Lasting Love (Paperback)
"This book explains how we develop insecurities and feelings of inferiority that makes us develop codependent relationships. The author uses many examples from her own experiences as well as those of many other people to vividly illustrate the connections between our past life experiences, our present insecurities and inferiorities, and how we feel and behave in our present relationships. It is an excellent book that allows us to open our eyes and see inside ourselves! I would recommend it to anyone who feels like their life (not just their relationships) can be happier than what it is now. Another more comprehensive book that allows us to apply these messages to a wider variety of things is "The Ever-Transcending Spirit" by Toru Sato. It is absolutely one of the best in the business! Sato's book makes it so easy to understand our development, our personality, and our relationships. I would highly recommend both of these books!" -- Reviewer

Love Smart: Find the One You Want -- Fix the One You Got explores new possibilities, new places to meet people -- including the Internet -- and new activities to get involved in where you'll find interesting people. Or if you are simply looking to rekindle the relationship you are already in, Dr. Phil will tell you how to turn up the flame."
