Psychology Syndrome

Imposter Syndrome doesn’t just affect middle-aged suits in big board rooms.

Since the dawn of civilization, men and women have been magnetically and irresistibly drawn together into romantic relationships, not so much by what they see, feel and think, but more by invisible forces.
