Finding safe people provides the foundation for building healthy, lasting relationships. Here's how to identify safe people.
Too many of us have invested ourselves into relationships that left us deeply wounded. We've been abandoned or taken advantage of, and left with little to show for what we've given. We've lost our sense of security and personal value in the process. And what's worse, we tend to either repeat the same mistakes of judgment over and over . . . Or else lock the doors of our hearts entirely and throw away the key. Why do we choose the wrong people to get involved with? Is it possible to change? And if so, where does one begin? Drs. Henry Cloud and John Townsend offer solid guidance for making safe choices in relationships, from friendships to romance. They help identify the nurturing people we all need in our lives, as well as ones we need to learn to avoid. Safe People will help you to recognize 20 traits of relationally untrustworthy people. Discover what makes some people relationally safe, and how to avoid unhealthy entanglements. You'll learn about things within yourself that jeopardize your relational security. And you'll find out what to do and what not to do to develop a balanced, healthy approach to relationships.






?? is this for our book club?
Hi, have you read this, is it good?
I think I need to read this
"Fortune favors the brave" - Virgil
I just saw there was a place
I just saw there was a place for book reviews so I entered it in here. I am nearly done with it & so far so good... I mean really good. It helps you recognize problem points in others & within yourself without condemnation. It also helps you to recognize & trust your own gut feeling... if something feels wrong, it mostly is. And then it helps you recognize good things in other people & how to trust them in a healthy way. It's helping me a lot.

When you wish upon a falling star, your dreams can come true. Unless it's really a meteorite hurtling to the Earth which will destroy all life. Then you're pretty much hosed no matter what you wish for. Unless it's death by meteor.
