"Women Who Love Too Much: How to Stop Making the Same Relationship Mistakes and Find the Love You Deserve" by Robin Norwood

Natose: It was an interesting read, It highlighted issues that I didn’t realise I had.
The only thing I would say is that the book said very little about what you can do to overcome loving too much

loriboot: I had so many ah-has while reading this book. All of my romantic relationships have been difficult. This book helped me understand why and what to do instead. One big ah-ha was that safe men feel boring. It takes time to build intimacy with them. It made me think about men from my past that were kind and loyal, but I looked over them, when really, they're the kind of person that you can build a lasting relationship with.

SupawanSupawan: I’ve been struggling with relationships and when I open up to my therapist she recommended that I purchase this book. I’ve haven’t finished the book yet but I can see why she recommended this book. Certain parts of it really resonated with how I was I feeling. I do recommend people who love too hard and give too much to read this book. I hope it will help whoever needs help like it did me.

Customer: Amazing book
I was struggling with so many self healing books or mentors but no one could help me in relating what exactly is happening. With these examples, i could actually realise few things and hopefully i will be a better version of myself.

Aishwarya S: The best part of the book is it is undeniably honest about the patterns that seem so normal but pave way to suffering( which most of the times the exact cause being unrecognised due to denial- the worst enemy). Quite informative insights. Btw, alcoholism can be replaced by many other forms of neglect and abuse but the consequences were alike. That's why it is very relatable.
Thank you so much, dear Author. I am glad i encountered this book. Good life, everyone!

Amazon Customer: I am a child born in the 70’s to parents who were addicted and living in a subculture. I developed unhealthy ways of loving early on, taking care of other people needs, putting other people first, loving men who were broken and needed fixing. This book has changed my life and my perspective on what I deserve and what I want from all relationships. Reading it felt confronting at times because every broken person shared my same story, I kept wanting to skip to the good part. It was worth the journey. I am planning on reading it again immediately.

Ywiwb7: Il libro più sconvolgente che abbia mai letto. È come uno schiaffo in faccia. Non ve ne pentirete, anzi è assolutamente da rileggere. Una lettura molto scorrevole.
Consigliatissimo.

Kathi O.: I can't put this book down! I actually could have written it - it rings so true in my life. I pick the wrong men; those that are distant, un-available, abusive, etc. etc. etc. This book is helping me learn why I do this + how to make better choices. I HIGHLY recommend this if you are struggling to get out of un-healthy relationships + how to be in healthy ones.

Martin: In therapeutic terms the book is accurate and a tremendous resource for women addicted to men who don't love them. However. In spiritual terms. The book is useless. Having an intense love for someone is a spiritual feeling. HOWEVER, it is not all that it seems. It shows us up to help us heal wounds that reside in us. Only by bringing these feelings into awareness (sometimes through the mirage of 'love') can we begin to change our automatic addiction.

I had a problem that dominated my entire adult life. Namely that I was attracted to men that allowed me to right the wrong my absent father had done to me. I knew this from the age of 17. Yet I wasn't able to stop recreating the same situation until I was 31. I would fall hopelessly in love with the man who showed me I wasn't good enough. And wonder why all the nice guys chased me. And why I wasn't interested in them.

Meditation ultimately illuminated me as a four-year-old child waiting for my father to pick me up and showed me I had been waiting for all my relationships to 'pick me up'. Unsurprisingly that never came. All I received was pain, suffering and desire. I had to label the last addiction as 'I do not deserve...
