Description

Money in romantic relationships is rarely just about budgets or bills. It's about fear, power, shame, control, and survival. When Love Costs Too Much: Romantic Triggers and Financial Wounds explores the hidden emotional terrain where intimacy and money collide-and why so many loving relationships fracture under financial stress.

This book reveals how financial trauma shapes who pays, who panics, who over-gives, and who feels powerless. It examines the silent roles couples fall into-provider, dependent, rescuer, peacekeeper-and how those roles quietly erode trust, desire, and emotional safety. Rather than offering financial advice or rigid solutions, this book focuses on the nervous system, attachment wounds, and unspoken fears that make money such a volatile force in love.

Through trauma-informed insight, practical frameworks, and emotionally safe exercises, readers learn how to untangle self-worth from income, support from control, and love from performance. The book guides couples toward communication that reduces blame, rebuilds trust, and creates shared financial safety without shame or dominance.

When Love Costs Too Much is for anyone who has felt anxious, guilty, resentful, or diminished around money in relationships-and is ready to rebuild intimacy without fear, leverage, or emotional debt.
