Superb!

There are a lot of people who think that divorce is wrong, or a full-blown sin. I believe all of those people, as well as others, should read this book. Dr. Forward points out that leaving a relationship is a right, not a privilege, and gives an insightful portrait into the motivations of people, married, divorced, or single, who just can't let go. PLEASE READ!

A great book

Its a great book for those in a painful relationship. Its just worth reading.

It was a pretty good book

I can't remember how I found out about Obsessive Love. I started looking up things on the internet and came on to this topic. I have been going to counseling for Co-Dependency which has not helped, but I started reading and before I knew it I realized I am a OBSESSIVE LOVER.
But a passive one. Not into hurting anyone, I was hurting myself with worry, and hoping, not wanting to give up what love I had, not hardly sleeping only constant worrying if she would ever come back.
The book was pretty good during the main reading but I got boored and skipped to the main stuff as to getting help, whick is about 2/3rds on back in the book.
I am now making a log, which is what she said to do of 6 things every time you think of that person write it all down. Take it to a counselor if you have one for help.
The part about talking to a chair as if you are in it, is a good thing and I have started using that process also. I think that is a good idea.
The book was informative and I learned who I was, and going to a Counselor is also important. BTW: Take a tape recorder and record your sesson.
I got the book at the library after reading off the internet about it, then I found her book. Got it at a good price used. Will keep around if needing it again. WISHED there was a CD or TAPE about this process to heal. Haven't found one yet. We all will get better, there is no ONE PERSON for you or a SOUL MATE , there are many out there, this I know because after you get over the Obsessive Love you have for this person, you will find someone else and the person you WERE Obsessive over will be a momory. I have been there before. GOOD LUCK AND I KNOW YOU WILL HEAL.
Please Let me know some way how your doing.
