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?
? Is he extremely jealous and possessive?
? Does he switch from charm to anger without warning?
? Does he belittle your opinions, your feelings, or your accomplishments?
? Does he withdraw love, money, approval, or sex to punish you?
? Does he blame you for everything that goes wrong in the relationship?
? Do you find yourself ?walking on eggs? and apologizing all the time?
If the questions here reveal a familiar pattern, you may be in love with a misogynist ? a man
who
loves you, yet causes you tremendous pain because he acts as if he
hate
s you.
In this superb self-help guide, Dr. Susan Forward draws on case histories and the voices of men and
women
trapped in these negative relationships to help you understand your man?s destructive pattern and the part you play in it.
She shows how to break the pattern, heal the hurt, regain your self-respect, and either rebuild your relationship or find the courage to love a truly
loving
man.

A Must Read For All!
This book amazed me. I was expecting this book to completely demonize a lot of the abusive men and abusive parents. It showed me nobody is above the human condition on how they REACT to certain treatment given by the emotional horrors of psychological abuse. Although there have been huge troubled spots in my relationship and I suspected something was not right about the way I was talked to, reading this book helped justify my claims and feelings. Nowhere near the abusive level of some of the couples but enough for me to see
why
I wasn't at my potential in my own relationship of where I wanted to be with myself and him. I had a tough self-journey of actually releasing the anger I never got to express before until now. I feel so much better and this book is a great reading tool for any type of relationship even if
you
are perfectly healthy. For the rough patches as a couple, this book will help guide you as to what not to tolerate and how to stand up for yourself
when
you feel something is wrong. It doesn't mean you are bad and it doesn't mean the verbal abuser is evil. It means you must take responsibility for your actions whether you are the messenger or on the receiving end. You have to read it to understand it!

I understood that I am not insane!!! they are just cheating me
I am a M/33/5'8" :-).
I understood
why
girls change their words every moment, why no one cares a person like me with multiple talents, a person
who
really cares for her and everyone else around.
I understood i am not arrogant, i am not insane but all my friends are cheating me by taking advantage of my enthusiams and attempts to control
them
.
I understood why those girls like jerks but insult me before everyone.
I controlled my tendency to help others despite that makes me look like a slave.
This book might help everyone in different ways. It may help a frog to keep distance from scorpion. This will help a scorpion understand why a frog would help it. It will help another frog to understand why frogs prefer scorpions to him!!

Great Book on Women and Codependency
Very enlightening read. Would recommend this book to any woman
who
has had one or more dysfunctional relationships with controlling men.
Insightful, yet overly Simplified
I found this book insightful, and it offered revealing case studies on "men
who
hate
women
, and they woman who
love
d
them
." Yet, I found Dr. Forward's hypothesis that all abusive men are misogynists overly simplified. It is as if she tried to pack as much "evidence" as she could into her "catchy" theory. The book was certainly revolutionary
when
it came out 22 years ago, but current research and understanding suggest that the nature of abusive men and their relationships is considerably more complex. It is perhaps a good book for "beginners" working with this theme, but if greater depth and understanding is desired, I would recommend "
Why
Does He do That? Inside the Minds of Angry and Controlling Men", by Lundy Bancroft

Its alright
If
you
need this book, and are aware of it, the subject content won't surprise you. I found it a tedious read with too many examples... which are aplenty online.
