Boundaries in Marriage & Dating

I read your post but I only have a few minutes before my next meeting so that's why the quick book mention...

Sounds like you might have issues with boundaries. There is a big difference between giving in a loving relationship and being overly adaptive in an unhealthy way.

You might consider Boundaries in Dating.

If you are unsure about boundaries I would totally recommend the Boundaries book. I am reading the Boundaries in Marriage and find it to be so so helpful!! I grew up in a home that basically didn’t have boundaries so the book it a really good education on what you need to do for yourself in a relationship and basically teaching what boundaries are, and why you need them.

Or the one for dating

This Book

This book changed my life. Before I read this book, I had never had a healthy relationship. It changed my entire approach to dating. Now I am in a 100% healthy and loving relationship, I have never been happier, and I am able to make the girl I am with happier than I have ever made anyone.

Also, if I can give you some advice. If you aren’t good at talking to women, it is a learned skill. You have to put yourself out there. Just start talking to girls, guys, anyone! Start a conversation, keep it going, try and make them smile, compliment them. It gets easier. You will embarrass yourself, feel awkward, be laughed at by others and this will last not just for a day, but for months, a year, or maybe longer until one day you are a very social person, not awkward at all, and people genuinely love to talk and be around you. Being that kind of person opens up many more possibilities on your dating options. If you don’t have a problem with that, disregard that entire last paragraph and read the book!
