About this listen
If your relationships are unhappy, unfulfilling, even ego destroying… If your yearning for love is frustrated by a partner who is more interested in work, substances, or other women than in you… If being in love means being in pain…then this book was written for you.
Women Who Love Too Much distills Robin Norwood’s entire career as a therapist specializing in the treatment of co-alcoholism and relationship addiction. Through their own words and stories, women who love too much reveal the roots of their attraction to difficult, troubled, distant men, and Norwood offers them—and you—a way out of the pain using a ten-point guide to recovery, happiness, and fulfillment. First published in 1985 and translated into dozens of languages, Women Who Love Too Much has changed the lives of millions of women around the world. Let it change yours too.

Is this the way love is supposed to feel? Does the man you love assume the right to control how you live and behave? Have you given up important activities or people to keep him happy? Does he belittle your opinions, your feelings, or your accomplishments? Does he withdraw love, money, approval, or sex to punish you? If the questions here reveal a familiar pattern, you may be in love with a misogynist. In this superb self-help guide, Dr. Susan Forward helps you understand your man's destructive pattern and the part you play in it.

Editorial 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.
