Summary

In How to Spot a Dangerous Man Before You Get Involved, Sandra L. Brown, MA, describes eight types of dangerous men, their specific traits, and characteristics. She explores victim's stories that tell how they came in contact with each type of dangerous man and their outcome. Brown then presents how to develop a defense strategy - how to spot, avoid, or rid themselves of this type of dangerous man. Brown explains women's innate "red flag" systems - how they work to signal impending danger, and why many women learn to ignore them. With red flags in hand, Brown then guides the listeners through their own personal experiences to develop a personalized "Do Not Date" list. With these tools, Brown shows women how they can spot and avoid patterns of engagement with dangerous men.

If you're looking for a book to about not making the same mistakes after surviving an abusive or toxic relationship, I cannot recommend this one enough!

Incredibly powerful and compelling audiobook that details the patterns and behaviours of both dangerous men (don't assume that physical abusers are the only type!!!) and the women at risk of fall for them.

This audiobook has empowered me to recognise red flags before they snowball and also given a lot of food for thought about recognising my own behaviours and core beliefs that put me at risk.

Gonna recommend this book to woman in my life.Thank you!!

A must for all, not just DA survivors!

The book overall is great but I couldn’t help but be triggered about the pervasive attitudes towards addiction and mental illness.. the book is definitely a bit dated in this regard.. in this regard I found it a little unhelpful everyone regardless of their problems has the right to desire healthy and loving relationships and the author seems wed to the idea that some circumstances preclude that based on their particular mental illness. I find that disagreeable.

Really important but..

I really enjoyed this book. It has plenty of crucial information for women, what to look for to avoid pain and mystery in relationship. Every young woman should educate her self and train herself to see red flags and don't ignore them.

Very well written book

Apparently, because you are listening to this book, you are a middle aged, heterosexual, christian, north american lady with a handful of failed marriages.
Contains some interesting parts about male behavior, but mostly its about you and your male selection patterns.
The book is extremely bloated, payed-by-word-count kind of book where the same sentences are repeated up to three times per chapter.

This book is about you

I found the chapter on emotionally unavailable men especially helpful and validating. The other chapters were useful too and after reading this book, and the warning examples, I’ll remember to pay attention to red flags and trust my gut feeling. The only thing that was sometimes missing was compassion towards victims. Women who are experiencing abuse for the first time may not even recognize it as abuse and therefore I don’t think that they are necessarily “volunteering”.

A book about red flags in relationships
