Inhaltsangabe

Our avoidance of a loving, honest relationship with sex is quietly destroying us.

This is the story of a man who tried to fix that—with porn, pickup lines, money, and sex gurus—before discovering the only cure was the embodied truth.

Chasing Her is not a self-help book. It's an invitation to bleed a little less blindly than he did.

Explicit. Uncomfortable. True. This is the book for anyone who is ready to tango with the messy vulnerability of intimacy and discover what's on the other side.

This memoir moves through college heartbreak, pickup artistry, entrepreneurship, Tantra, and the spiritual underworld of modern intimacy work—every chapter another attempt to fill a hunger that money, mastery, and mysticism couldn't touch. It's a raw, often funny, sometimes brutal account of one man's education in desire, shame, and what it actually takes for a man to feel his own body, meet a woman in her full truth and aliveness, and find the kind of depth that only comes from real mutual contact.

This is a book for the men who have given up on love, yet still fantasize about women in their quietest, most isolated hours. It's for the women who feel unmet by the masculine and want to know what's really underneath his psyche's template. And it's for anyone caught in cycles of hurt and sexual longing, confused why ecstasy arises and vanishes in a blink of an eye.

This honest, unfiltered, and occasionally ridiculous memoir doesn't offer a five-step plan. It offers the truth of one man's search—so that maybe yours costs you a little less.

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Balwin Ratra spent much of his life trying to understand the forces that move us toward one another: desire, longing, intimacy, devotion, and the strange places we go searching for love. chasing Her is a record of one chapter of that search. The man who lived these pages is not entirely the man writing these words now. This book was never intended as a prescription for how to live, love, or relate. It is an account of what happened when one man followed his hunger far enough to discover what was underneath it. Balwin works in the fields of human connection and transformation, and lives in New York.
