Women Who Love Too Much When You Keep Wishing and Hoping He'll Change Robin Norwood Is having "somebody to love" the most important thing in your life? Do you believe that with "the right man" you would no longer feel depressed or lonely-even though the men you've loved have been unable to love you back? When you meet a man who is troubled, distant, moody, or unpredictable, do you find him exciting and attractive? Are you bored with "nice guys" who are open, honest, and dependable? When there are problems between you and the man you love, do you try to change him or help him by loving him even more? If being in love means being in pain, this book was written for you. Therapist Robin Norwood describes "loving too much" as a pattern of thoughts, feelings, and behaviors which certain women develop as a response to various problems in their family backgrounds. Many women, due to very clear and understandable dynamics originating in childhood, find themselves repeatedly drawn into unhappy and destructive relationships with men. They then struggle to make these doomed relationships work. Ms. Norwood takes a hard look at how
powerfully addicting these unhealthy relationships are and why it is so difficult to give them up. Through intimate case histories of "women who have loved too much" and interviews with the men these women have loved, we discover how childhood patterns of relating are repeated in our adult love relationships and how our search for what we never got from our parents can become a debilitating obsession in adulthood. Her book also delineates a very specific program for recovery from the "disease" of loving too much, so women who choose to do so can change from loving someone else so much it hurts to loving themselves enough to stop the pain.
