Some love addicts tend to love people who are unavailable. Other love addicts cannot let go of past partners who have let them go. According to Pia Mellody, author of Facing Love Addiction, “a love addict is someone who is dependent on, enmeshed with, and compulsively focused on another person.”
In love addiction, there is an overwhelming fixation on love or the pursuit of a romantic partner. Often, once the object of desire has been attained, they are never good enough, and never seem to live up to the love addict’s expectations.
