friend Posted August 6, 2009 Posted August 6, 2009 Hello All, I have a friend that has been in a bad marriage for years now. Her husband is a pretty intimidating guy and she has felt alone in her marriage for a long time. She realizes her marriage has been over for a long time but is scared to talk to her husband and ask for a divorce. They have been to marriage counseling about 3 times in the 3 years they have been married and she is pretty burned out, she has tried everything to make it work but the problem is, shes the only one trying, he wont change anything. She needs help getting the nerve to leave him, she is scared of how to even start the conversation and needs something to build her courage. I have been trying to help her but i am no expert, i have told her to get a professional and she has an appointment next week. However i am trying to buy her a book to read over the weekend that could help her. Does anyone have any recommendations? A girlfriend of mine suggested "Stop Being the String Along: A Relationship Guide to Being THE ONE" Any Help would be great. thank you.
She's_NotInLove_w/Me Posted August 7, 2009 Posted August 7, 2009 1) The Good Divorce by Constance Ahrons 2) Divorce for Dummies 3) Cutting Loose: Why Women Who End Their Marriages Do So Well by Ashton Applewhite but honestly, I would rather recommend books by Michelle Wiener-Davis, such as: 1) Divorce Busting, and/or; 2)Divorce Remedy...
