Beyond The Surface: Why What You See Keeps Betraying You
ou didn’t choose the wrong people.
You chose them without digging deep enough.
In Below the Surface, David D. Jordan and Soraya Cain expose why attraction, chemistry, and surface-level impressions keep leading people into relationships that collapse under pressure. What feels like compatibility is often familiarity. What feels like passion is often distraction. And what looks good on the surface can hide a core that was never aligned with yours.
This book challenges readers to stop fixing symptoms—arguments, emotional outbursts, inconsistency, betrayal—and start examining the foundation they committed to without testing. When people “change,” they usually aren’t becoming someone new. The pressure simply reveals who they already were.
Through sharp insight and powerful excavation metaphors, Below the Surface teaches you how to recognize core values early, identify misalignment before attachment, and choose relationships that can actually support who you are becoming.
Because what keeps betraying you isn’t hidden.
It’s what you never took the time to uncover.
