How to cure those "Please Don't Leave Me" fights

by Marie McKinney-Oates on October 27, 2009

Ok. So the video is kind of weird. But I can’t listen to this song without thinking how true this is for some couples. We scream, yell and torture our partners all because deep down underneath it all we’re terrified of being left alone and somewhere along the way we learned that all this pain meant love.

My favorite lines are:
Can’t you tell that this is all just a contest?
The one that wins will be the one that hits the hardest
But baby I don’t mean it
I mean it, I promise

Not only do I love this song and its spot on description of some types of relationships I love that there is a book that tells you how to get past all the unnecessary nastiness. That’s right. There’s a way to fix a relationship that resembles the movie Misery.

If you can in any way see your relationship in this song I would highly suggest reading Hold Me Tight: Seven Conversations for a Lifetime of Love. No one gets to the heart of relationship problems the way Dr. Sue Johnson does. No. one.
