Five Men Who Broke My Heart by Susan Shapiro

It's very therapeutic, jotting down your memoir, that is. Susan gives all the details of the 5 men who broke her heart and ends the story with the one who didn’t break her heart – her husband Aaron.

I liked Susan’s comment about Jewish parents. She said they are not passive/aggressive, but aggressive/aggressive.

I’d like to know why they place such pressure on their children to get married, have children, etc. Is it because the bible says be fruitful and multiply?

Anyway, Susan got married to Aaron. His father is a judge and he officiated the ceremony. His father also displayed is aggressive/aggressive nature by questioning if his son has brought along the wedding rings.

So after the 5 men broke her heart, she found her prince charming and is living happily ever after. The interesting thing is that Susan also realized that she had something to do with the failing of those relationships, it all wasn’t on the men.
