I want to change my paradigms and my life. I'm beginning to hate my paradigms about love. Im in the "I wanna be a player and be a don juan and get many chicks and sex" phase. I want to change my paradigm. I want a book that teaches me about true love. A book that changes my perspective, I want to have meaningful relationships, I don't want to live a superficial life, I want to change! I want a book that enlightens me. For example, I remember I used to be like "Why should I live my life for others? One should only live for himself!" but after I read the biographies of great men of history I changed my paradigm. I want to have a different paradigm about love and the value of having real relationships, a book that convinces me! What book can you recommend me?

thanks!!!!

This is exactly what you are looking for, I think, especially as you are concerned with paradigms. Google it: you'll see what I mean.

Dude I don't even know you but just by reading what you said I already know that no book is going to make you understand or find love, you might as well go waste your time and read The Notebook or Dear John because it seems as though that is the sort of bull**** you're looking for.

If you know how you are and how you want to be, why do you need a book to reinforce that that is how you should be? The fact that you want to change means that your paradigms have already shifted. Now go live.

I don't see how reading a book about a fictional love is going to make you live differently. The fact that you want to live differently should be enough.

That being said, East of Eden offers a few interesting perspectives on love.
