Living with the Passive-Aggressive Man

Coping with Hidden Aggression - From the Bedroom to the Boardroom

De: Scott Wetzler Ph.D.

Narrado por: Matthew Josdal

Do you know one of these men?

The catch-me-if-you-can lover...Phil's romantic and passionate one minute, distant and cold the next.

The deviously manipulative coworker or boss...Jack denies resenting Nora's rapid rise in the company, but when they're assigned to work together on a project, he undermines her.

The obstructionist, procrastinating husband...Bob keeps telling his wife he'll finish the painting job he began years ago, but he never seems to get around to it.

These are all classic examples of the passive aggressive man. This personality syndrome - in which hostility wears a mask of passivity - is currently the number one source of men's problems in relationships and on the job. In Living with the Passive Aggressive Man, Scott Wetzler draws upon numerous case histories from his own practice to explain how and why the passive aggressive man thinks, feels, and acts the way he does.

A good review of the PA type man

This book is a good review of the contributing factors and possible outcomes of the PA type man, as well as the personality types attracted by them. It is a good aid into figuring out how on earth you got involved in this kind of relationship.

Professionally written, and performed. Very perceptive and profound. Good for people in all phases of their relationship with a passive aggressive man.

Very eye opening

This was suggested to my wife. And I started listening so I could be on my toes about what’s to come in my relationship and build a defensive way for what is to come. But by the end of the introduction and first chapter, I was like whoa and this book became eye opening. I listened to the whole thing and there’s no defense on my part, besides using this as a key to take our relationship to next level, and also work on myself. It hit home with work and friendships in the beginning and I realized I can use some help. Lol hope this helps

Very Enlightening!!!

Appreciate the breakdown. Explains a lot when it comes to relationships. Truly a must read!
