Book excerpt: bondage, controlled, or possessed by someone else; you allow others to coerce you into saying yes when you'd prefer to say no; you catch yourself telling 'little white lies' to avoid having to explain yourself or avoid conflict; or you have trouble controlling your emotions and sometimes act-out in a manner you later feel guilty for, this manual is for you. Don't let the stress associated with passive, aggressive and passive-aggressive relationships keep you in bondage, damaging your health and shortening your life. God created mankind to be self-owned, self-governed, relationship oriented beings, but the lack of assertiveness can turn relationships into ownerships where people believe that their partners belong to them and owe them this or that. The exercises in this manual will - when practiced - provide one with the keys to break free from emotional bondage, turn controlling ownerships into fulfilling relationships and facilitate the development of meaningful, lasting, loving relationships.
