A Man’s Way Through Relationships: Learning to Love and Be Loved
Author: Dan Griffin, MA
An essential guide to the challenges men face in creating healthy and engaged in relationship in all areas of their lives. Every idea is presented through the lens of the “Man Rules” – the often unconscious ideas men carry with them into every relationship they have – that affect their ability to find true connection. A Man’s Way through Relationships offers practical advice and inspiration for men to define, with their partners, their own sense of masculinity, and thus heighten their potential to love and be loved. Dan Griffin excerpts interviews with men who share their innermost lives and experience with relationships. He draws from his own life with over two decades of personal growth – the successes and the failures. Readers will learn to recognize how their ideas about masculinity have shaped who they are and how they approach their relationships.
“A beautiful book about men and for men, A Man’s Way Through Relationships takes the reader through the journey of how the Man Rules, as part of socialization, often combine with trauma in early childhood to impact the ability of men to feel safe and embrace and flourish in relationships. I am a big fan of Dan Griffin and his contributions to treatment and recovery. This book is important to men in general, and specifically to men in recovery. Every man needs to read this!”
