The Surrendered Wife: A Practical Guide to Finding Intimacy, Passion and Peace
Autor Laura Doyleen Limba Engleză Paperback – 31 dec 2000
Like millions of women, Laura Doyle wanted her marriage to be better. But when she tried to get her husband to be more romantic, helpful, and ambitious, he withdrew and she was lonely and exhausted from controlling everything. Desperate to be in love with her man again, she decided to stop telling him what to do and how to do it. When Doyle surrendered control, something magical happened. The union she had always dreamed of appeared. The man who had wooed her was back.
The underlying principle of "The Surrendered Wife" is simple: The control women wield at work and with children must be left at the front door of any marriage. Laura Doyle s model for matrimony shows women how they can both express their needs and have them met while also respecting their husband s choices. When they do, they revitalize intimacy.
Compassionate and practical, "The Surrendered Wife" is a step-by-step guide that teaches women how to:
. Give up unnecessary control and responsibility
. Resist the temptation to criticize, belittle, or dismiss their husbands
. Trust their husbands in every aspect of marriage from sexual to financial
. And more.
"The Surrendered Wife" will show you how to transform a lonely marriage into a passionate union."
