About this listen
Is having 'somebody to love' the most important thing in your life? Do you constantly believe that with 'the right man' you would no longer feel depressed or lonely? Are you bored with 'nice guys' who are open, honest, and dependable? 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 and behavior, which certain women develop as a response to problems from childhood.
Many women find themselves repeatedly drawn into unhappy and destructive relationships with men. They then struggle to make these doomed relationships work. This best-selling book takes a hard look at how powerfully addictive these unhealthy relationships are - but also gives a very specific program for recovery from the disease of loving too much.
©1985 Robin Norwood (P)2012 Penguin AudiobooksEditorial Review
For every woman who longs for true love and happiness but always seems to choose the wrong man, Women Who Love Too Much shows how to break the addiction to unhealthy relationships. For some women, a relationship is like an addiction. These women can lose control of the situation and of their well-being in the pursuit of love. Author Robin Norwood states that this type of woman will, without fail, gravitate towards men who are anything but boring. These men might be troubled, angry, elusive, or simply emotionally unavailable. However, it’s the woman who feels she must fix things, and like a drug addict, cannot step away when the relationship turns sour. Ellen Archer, who narrates this Audible audiobook, is a talented and acclaimed professional. Her other works include Sleeping Women by Haruki Murakami and Smashed by Koren Zailckas. Her narration of Women Who Love Too Much is warm, calm, and engaging. Her clear voice carries the stories and themes with a compassionate and emotive style. Norwood, a licensed therapist by trade, didn’t just create this title due to the countless women she has helped over the years–she created it because she used to be one of them. By listening to her audiobook, she hopes women will learn to love themselves sufficiently, break their addiction, and take back control over their relationships.

Finally a book that spoke to me
Even though the stories weren’t exact, they explained so much about my behavior in relationships and helped me discuss the right things with my therapist. I’m healing and it feels so amazing.

A book that puts a lot into perspective
This book helped me work through a difficult and confusing time. I learned a lot about myself and why I look for and end up with men incapable of love. Then I understood the psychology behind my actions and my partners actions and behaviors. This book taught me to be alone for a while and work on myself and never let this pattern happen again. It validated all the confusing emotions I was experiencing so I could gain a fresh outlook and move forward slowly

It was really interesting
The information the robin norwood talked about was really helpful and easy to understand. It ties is a lot with the concept of ACES.

Bleak!
But necessary. Some tough things to realize. If you want to skip the book and get to the cure just listen to the last chapter.

excellent book
I enjoyed listening to this wonderful book even though the topic was a bit heavy... The reader will discover quite a lot about him/herself, about his/her personality. The author takes you to a journey somewhere deep inside yourself.

Didn’t know I needed this so much
Absolutely life changing book. Hearing the stories of other women who also struggled made me feel a lot less alone and alienated. Grateful for my therapist who recommended this to me.
