The book was mentioned as a way to deal with feelings of jealousy or possessiveness, specifically in situations where a new partner has a past with someone else. The author advocates for viewing past partners as sisters, embracing the commonality of love instead of feeling possessive.

"

She said, think of any woman who has loved the man you love as a sister. Like you've both loved the same person. That means you have a lot in common. And if you can embrace that commonality instead of feeling possessive or rejecting of yourself or her, that is letting love do what love does, which is connect and express. And love itself isn't jealous.

As love matures in a relationship, it's only really healthy if it allows that person to be completely who they are, including their past and including everyone they've loved or who has ever loved them. Love is a big, big picture that includes everyone ultimately.
