When Loving Him Is Hurting You

It’s Okay to Have Needs of Your Own

You fell in love with him. But over time you’ve come to realize he’s in love with himself-and you feel trapped. His needs, his problems, and his plans always seem to take precedence over yours.

Dr. David Hawkins, counselor with the Marriage Recovery Center, offers a guide to help you identify signs of narcissism, understand how your loved one’s issues are affecting you, and prepare a biblical game plan for freeing yourself to live courageously in light of God’s love.

Whether the man in your life can be diagnosed with Narcissistic Personality Disorder (NPD) or merely has arrogant and self-centered tendencies, the emotional pain his behavior causes you is all too real. Discover the truths, wisdom, and grace you need to spark change in your relationship, set boundaries, and experience healing.
