Too Good to Leave, Too Bad to Stay: A Step-by-Step Guide to Help You Decide Whether to Stay In or Get Out of Your Relationship

A psychotherapist offers guidelines to help folks decide whether to leave a relationship or whether enough good remains to make it worth working through conflicts. I personally used this book to help me and a significant other decide whether there was anything worth saving in our relationship (there wasn’t).

The book is written in a clear, concise manner with case studies and plenty of examples to help you make the decision whether you should stay or leave. The book is written in such a way to help you get right to the heart of your decision:

  • What sins are forgivable and which ones unpardonable?
  • Is your partner questioning your opinions to the point where you doubt yoursel?
  • What is your sex life really like, and how important is it?
  • Is there real love left between you, and how does it stack up against all that you find unlovable?

The author provides guidelines that are very helpful in making your choices, concrete steps that you can implement right away, and help you discover what it is to be happy.

Softcover, 304 pages.
