The Surrendered Single

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Surrendered Single is a book written by Laura Doyle (who also wrote the book Surrendered Wife) to help single women attract a good man according to the principles of Surrendering. Doyle advocates the surrender of inappropriate control of another.

[edit] Surrendered Single

A surrendered single is a woman who chooses to apply the principles of surrendering to her life so as to serenely attract a good man rather than desperately seek a mate.

Doyle says that the basic principles of a Surrendered Single are that she:

  • Acknowledges her desire to attract and marry a man who's right for her;
  • Lets go of the idea of a perfect man;
  • Receives compliments, gifts, help, and dates graciously whenever possible;
  • Takes responsibility for and focuses on her own happiness and fulfillment;
  • Relinquishes control of the pace of the courtship;
  • Strives to be vulnerable;
  • Honors her desire to be married by ending dead-end relationships;
  • Checks for safety before she risks herself physically or emotionally.
