Selfishness: The Obsession of Lovers

By Kelvin Namwanza

Why do so many relationships fail—even when love is present?

Why do couples who once cherished each other eventually feel unseen, unheard, or unappreciated?

In Selfishness: The Obsession of Lovers, Kelvin Namwanza delivers a profound and eye-opening exploration of the one force that silently destroys more relationships and marriages than any other: selfishness. Drawing from years of marriage counselling, personal experience, and biblical insight, Namwanza exposes how self-centeredness subtly creeps into a relationship and gradually erodes the foundation of love, trust, and intimacy.

Through relatable real-life scenarios—such as Anele and Zandile’s marriage, where selfishness nearly choked their joy, or Seth’s painful awakening through a moment of crisis—you will see how everyday attitudes, habits, and blind spots can either build a relationship or break it.
