Should I Stay or Should I Go?

A Guide to Knowing If Your Relationship Can - and Should - Be Saved

By: Lundy Bancroft, JAC Patrissi

Narrated by: Stephen R. Thorne

In this supportive and straightforward guide, Lundy Bancroft, the author of Why Does He Do That?, and communication specialist JAC Patrissi offer a way for women to practically take stock of their relationships and move forward, with or without their partners. Women involved in chronically frustrating or unfulfilling relationships will learn to: tell the difference between a healthy yet difficult relationship and one that is really not working, recognize the signs that their partner has a serious problem, stop waiting to see what happens and make their own growth the top priority, and prepare for life without their partner, even as they keep trying to make the relationship work.

Critic reviews

"Women needing to check in objectively on their relationship's health will find this book quite useful." ( Publishers Weekly)

Great book!!

This is a very good work, very informative, and it’s easy to apply to your daily life

fantastic!

everyone needs to read our listen to this book! it's insight is vital for a healthy relationship, romantic or otherwise.

Understanding why abusive partners do what they do and how/why it affects you, give this a listen it’s groundbreaking

For me, this book has changed my entire outlook on abuse and toxic relationships. Putting everything in the correct perspective and focusing on the health and well-being of the abused person significantly more than the motives and tactics of the abuser and their lack of self awareness or ability to change, which is the main focus of other outlets who talk about “The Narcissists”. The approach taken here is far better in that it captures a much wider range of abuser and puts them directly at fault for their actions and takes the blame off the abused person as described within. More people need to hear this book as it answers and guides so well to solve so many issues created intentionally by the abuser, absolutely groundbreaking. Thank you for creating this content, sincerely.

Excellent!

This book is a treasure, a gift to humanity. I took in every word. Simply brilliant! The narration was good too. This book finally brought the clarity that dozens of other books on the subject failed to provide. The clarity is what I value most. I am deeply grateful for this book.
