Summary of Women Who Love Too Much 

4.6 . 4380 reviews

Short summary

We’ve all seen it before — a woman goes through hell to be there for the man she loves. She gives, she puts up with poor behavior, and she cries more than she smiles. Some women just love too much. Perhaps this is something you can recognize within yourself, or maybe a friend of yours is always repeating the same old pattern in her relationships. What you might not know is that the reasons go far deeper than simply choosing the wrong man. Robin Norwood, best-selling author and addiction therapist, suggests that women who love too much will never change until they address the root cause. Exploring the reasons why some women give, give, and give some more, “Women Who Love Too Much” is a fascinating and enlightening read for any woman who has just had enough with repeating the same old destructive relationship pattern.

You might assume that giving your all to a man only to receive nothing back time and time again is just part and parcel of being a woman. It’s not.

Loving too much is an addiction. It stems from being scared of being alone, or a deeper childhood issue that was never resolved. Most women have dealt with this type of situation once or twice in their lives, and most women have certainly seen a friend going through it. However, if this is a pattern that keeps on repeating itself, it’s an addiction that needs to be taken notice of.
Many women are scared of being left “on the shelf” and this can lead to obsessive love patterns.
Women who love too much become obsessed, but it’s not love they’re obsessed with. Robin Norwood suggests that it’s actually fear they're obsessed with. The fear of being left alone or being considered someone who isn’t worthy of love is terrifying and in order to avoid it, you give everything you possibly have, and even more. You become obsessed with a man, assuming that he can take away everything you’re fearful of, but he actually just makes it worse. The problem isn’t actually with him, it’s with you.

It’s a very destructive cycle, and one that many women are going around and around in, almost like a hamster stuck on a wheel. “Women Who Love Too Much” aims to help women like this understand the situation they’re in, and to delve deeply into what may have caused it in the first place. Only when you understand the reason for doing something can you work to break the pattern that is doing you no good whatsoever.
Loving too much is a cycle of destruction which needs to be broken. You can only do this once you understand your core reasons for loving too much in the first place.
second key point

When a man doesn’t love you back, don’t chase him

Robin Norwood has helped many women who fall into the ‘loving too much’ pattern. One of the most common events is that a woman meets a man, everything is fine at the start and he chases her, making her feel good. Once she gives in to his wooing, she starts to give him her all. This means she does everything she says she is going to do and more. She starts to become his shoulder to cry on, his go-to therapist, and as a result, she neglects her own needs in the process.

Headway is the answer! No longer accumulating books I never read. With Headway, I initially chose the areas important to me such as productivity, time management, etc., and each day I'm provided several book summaries from which I devote 20 minutes or more each day reading. All of this on my phone! My life has improved with Headway. Truly my most useful app.

In today’s world, we rarely have time. Between our jobs, our families are social obligations, when do we have time to grow and develop ourselves? Headway is an excellent app that gives you that time it gives you those little snippets of information that you need to direct your focus in on your life. Headway gives you a chance to find out the meat of a book that you might want to purchase and read or listen to in-depth without wasting a lot of time trying to figure out is this book for me? I highly recommend the app.

I've gotten multiple books out of the library with the intent to read them, but always have a hard time finding the time. This app has helped me finally be able to get to them. Summarized, yes, and thank goodness too! Just short enough I can finish one on my way picking kids up from school/practice, or while I'm cooking dinner. I can't wait to listen to them over the summer when we visit the beach!

It amazed me! There is the possibility to highlight the most important points of each book and instantly translate unfamiliar vocabulary. With the ability to review the searched words. It's a great way to learn more about English as well. The price is great.

I’m enjoying what I’m learning on headway.each summary comes with quotes at the end which you can save to help you remember key points. You can listen or read, I’ve found that reading puts me to sleep before I can finish but the listening feature keeps me engaged and I can finish in a brief amount of time if not one session.

Exactly what I need! I always have booklist to read, but can't committed enough to finish/start bc of too much pages. Headway is really helpful and concise with their summary. What I love the most is that the essence of the book is well crafted, so I don't only read the key points, but also there's the story and how personality of the author still well shown through the summary. Well done!
