They say to write about what you know, but what if every encounter you've had with love has left you bruised in more ways than one? Do you listen to the voice inside your head that mimics what most of society says-that they'll take your words and invalidate you, or do you write it anyway? In Unrequited, author Andrew Kendall chose the latter-ignoring the voice in his head that viciously whispered, "You were never abused" and that, "You're not a victim", and chose instead to tell his story of unrequited love and abuse with a voice of clarity he was afraid he'd never find. Because for years nights were long and heartache was inevitable while living in the rules of someone else's game-where undeserving monsters in disguise were suffocating the very life out of the love he was trying to give. With words armored with honesty and vulnerability, this painfully beautiful journey is more than a memoir on love. Rather, it's a product of everything Andrew learned from trying to love the wrong people. Though personal the details feel universal. A secret oasis made public in hopes that those who read it might find a newfound power of their own-reigniting a fire inside that unties them from covert types of abuse, low self-worth, and unrealistic expectations that coincide with painful relationships. --- "Andrew Kendall's Unrequited is a touching, raw, and heartfelt look into the journey of loving the wrong person to finding the right one in yourself. Seamlessly merging poetry, memoir, and essential wisdom, Kendall delves into the grief, despair, loss and victory of the human experience with candor and creativity. Along the way, he offers an accessible vocabulary for victims of covert manipulation to connect to and a library of experiences that they will undoubtedly resonate with. Readers will benefit from his clarity and hard-earned wisdom, and survivors of emotional abuse will find this an especially poignant read. This book is a powerful testament to the resilience of the human spirit in the face of adversity." - Shahida Arabi, Bestselling Author, POWER: Surviving and Thriving After Narcissistic Abuse
