Robin Norwood, Women Who Love Too Much

I totally disagree with all her actions in the books . I will lead you to divorce if you follow her advice.

You basically have to come up ideas to help your partner not betray him/her.

Tota bs.please don't follow her advices. This is not a marriage principles.I have known people made their love in suffering and miserable but nothing changed.

This is a book that every woman (and every girl about to become a woman), and every man, should, must, ought, to read. More than once. I think it should be required reading in every secondary school curriculum in the Western World, and possibly everywhere else as well. Together with "Letters From Women Who Love Too Much" it provides invaluable insight into relationships that are not working, but also are not being left (or made better).

It's with all my heart and soul that I owe my sanity to this book. I have been going through major disasters emotionally and physically due to wrong relationships. Yet, I couldn't understand why.

This book revealed why, in spite of the, we persevere in perpetrating the same pattern to the point where there's no way out.

Yet, there's hope, it's a simple understanding of the mathematics beneath faulty thinking.

We are loveable, we are who we are, never compromise that for a man or another person.

Thank you Dr Norwood!!

This book has completely transformed my life. I never thought reading a book could have such an impact. It's very easy to read and understand for women of all ages. I'm 23 and could see how my actions were affecting my husband and my 3 year old child and really wanted to do something to change what I was doing. It's been from this book that I have realised how much my actions and my thoughts have been related to my childhood. Ever since meeting my husband, I thought there was something he could need me for but over the 5 yrs and I have realised that I have been deliberately trying to fix something that really didn't need fixing and that has been my biggest frustration. My husband really is a good man but due to being in bad relationships I've expected, somewhat, the same from him. It really is an eye opener!! I am now more in love with my husband than ever before, simply by accepting that he is different and that I no longer want to be a dysfunctional woman from that dysfunctional family that was my childhood. Good luck and all the best to all the women out there who love too much!!

This book is an essential for all women experiencing dysfunctional relationships, an absolute life saver for myself; have recommended it time & time again, and been thrilled to witness the life changing effects it has had on my fellow sisters in life. Love your work Robin, Cate:-)

My mum told me to read this book nearly two years ago,as she had suffered in so many difficult realationships herself,with her home life growing up as a child with a mother who had very serious bi-polar and a father whom she adored but was a workoholic, my father, and when they split her boyfriends after that. I had always meant to start reading it,but never got round to it, as my life was so busy,what with being a full time mum and of course planning my life to suit my man. Well i have now reached that point in my life where i need to finally start facing up to the fact, that who i am is driffting away rapidly,and start concentrating on me, instead of focusing all my effort on him and depending on him for all my happiness.This is what iv'e done all my life,and even though i was already aware of what i was doing i cudn't stop repeating the same old patterns. My current boyfriend has let me down yet again,only this time i know i have to let go and move on. But its only from reading this brilliant and enlightening book that i can finally, after so many years,try to start changing my life fo good! Thankyou Robin! you've helped me so much.. This is a new beginning for me and my son. I hope it can help women out there just as it has for me. It's a hard book to read but when your ready you will realise where you've been going wrong,why you have,and how to start changing,and how important it is too really change. Just Amazing!!! ...Thankyou again.

this book was introduced to me by my therapist! reading the accounts of various difficult relationships endured by women made me realise that i have an addictive personality in as much as i am drawn to men who need rescueing, weak men who cannot deal with their own emotions and turbulent pasts. This book has taught me so much about myself and my addictive personality (i rescue people) that i can look forward to a more loving, more fulfilling future. Thanks Robin for having the insight to putting pen to paper and thanks too for my therapist having the wisdom to give me the tools to cure myself! i wish i had known about it sooner.

It changed my life. It was an open book day and I just went by to see what book will I attract this time, and it was this one. I started reading it on June 9 2009, and i finished it on 28 July 2009. I didn't read from it everyday, cause it's a hard book. But I am another person now, even if have passed only nearly 2 months. Thank you, Robin Norwood, for sharing with the rest of us, that we can cure, and that we can change ourselves, and have the relationships and lives that we wished for !! God bless you !!

Women Who Love Too Much is a must for all women who come from unhappy dysfunctional backgrounds and who like me, find themselves unhappy with their painful, repetitive experiences of adult love. It needn't be this way. Now finally, with my own intuitive feelings to finally get out and with the help of this book, I feel I can look forward to building a new, positive and healthy life for myself. There is hope.

There are so many self help books out there, but this one is head and shoulders above the norm. I'm only into the first 5 or so chapters but it's messages have really hit home for me. After 10 or so years in therapy with a number of different therapists this book speaks directly to my heart and to my head like nothing else has. Coming from an alcoholic & sexually abusive family and then heading into one destructive and painful relationship after another, the messages in this book have helped me to see clearly for the first time in years about why it keeps happening to me. I've just made my way out of a 7 year relationship with a man who had children and an on-off partner elsewhere and who was essentially emotionally unavailable. I've been analysing and asking myself questions for 7 years about this relationship, why I feel so bad about myself, why love hurts so much, why he won't love me the way I need and why I can't fix it. Now I feel with this book I have the answers. There's a lot of work to do to help me rebuild my life but I feel I am better armed with the well explained knowledge this book gives.

I have only just started reading 'Women who love too much' by Robin Norwood and i must admit that i am unable to carry on reading it until tomorow, as the truth spoken in this book has triggered something far more deeper in me that i could ever imagined and i need some time to let everyithing sink in. I have only read up until pg 14 and just those pages have already changed my life and the way i look at things. I look forward to reading the rest. All i can say is 'WOW', i recommend this book to EVERYONE, it will change your life, whether it be your love life or other aspects of your life. Thank you for writing this book Robin Norwood. I am currently taking a break from my crazy life and i bumped into the book by mistake. But i believe that i meant to read this book. No bad points. You just need to be strong when reading this book
