ABOUT THE BOOK
How to Feel Loved
The Five Mindsets That Help You Get More of What Makes Life Worth Living reveals the simple yet powerful shifts that can transform how we experience our closest relationships.
Why, in an age of constant connection, do so many of us still feel lonely, anxious, or unseen? Sonja Lyubomirsky, the world’s preeminent expert on happiness, and Harry Reis, one of the world’s leading experts on relationships and connection, argue that the problem isn’t the number of friends we have or how busy our social calendars are—it’s that too often, our interactions don’t leave us feeling genuinely loved. We may worry that if people really knew us—our flaws as well as our strengths—their affection would disappear. Or we may think we’re just not lovable enough.
This book offers a liberating alternative. You don’t need to reinvent yourself, impress others, or bend over backward to earn love. Instead, the key lies in shifting how you approach your next conversation!
Blending cutting-edge science, timeless wisdom, and compelling stories, Lyubomirsky and Reis introduce five practical mindsets that can change the way you relate to others. With practice, these habits will help you create relationships where you feel deeply known, valued, and—most important—loved.

Everyone wants to feel more loved. It’s remarkable that no one thought to study such a central driver of human happiness before. Lyubomirsky and Reis have done a beautiful job combining real science with compelling stories to show us exactly how to make this happen. Their approach is non-obvious, fruitful, and evidence-based—an important body of work.

Science and ancient wisdom have shown that the secret to happiness is to love—and to feel loved. If you struggle with the latter, Sonja Lyubomirsky and Harry Reis have the solution. How to Feel Loved is a deeply researched and beautifully written guide to finding what we all need for true happiness. This book might change your life.

It’s about time an expert on happiness (Lyubomirsky) and one on relationships (Reis) came together! In How to Feel Loved, they show that the true key to happiness lies not in being perfect, nor in finding the ideal partner, but in learning how to relate to others so as to feel loved. Through research and stories, they outline simple but powerful mindsets—sharing openly, listening with curiosity, embracing complexity, and keeping an open heart—that anyone can practice. Their 'Sea-Saw' metaphor reveals how love grows through a back-and-forth process of mutual lifting up, offering readers both inspiration and practical guidance.

To love and to feel loved—if this is what you want out of life, what does science have to tell you? There aren’t two scientists in the world I trust more to deliver research-backed, actionable recommendations on how to improve your relationships, from intimate to casual. Not only are they world experts on the subject, they’ve written a playbook that applies the evergreen principles of love to the dilemmas of modern life.

Thousands of books promise to teach us how to be rich, thin, beautiful, charming, or smart. But beneath these aspirations lies a simpler motive: most people want to be loved and appreciated by others. Imagine, then, the audacity of publishing a book that claims to show us how to be and feel loved. Two world-famous psychological scientists, Sonja Lyubomirsky and Harry Reis, have just done exactly that—with a profoundly important new book.
How to Feel Loved is one of the most compelling works of popular psychology I’ve read in many years. Drawing on research in psychology, neuroscience, anthropology, and philosophy, the authors trace the foundations of what it means to feel loved. More importantly, they offer a practical roadmap for helping people feel loved and appreciated in their everyday lives. This beautifully written book is both personal and scientific—sometimes funny, sometimes painful, and always thought-provoking.
