When Good Men Behave Badly: Change Your Behavior, Change Your Relationship
Author: David B. Wexler, PhD
Understanding Men, Emotions, and Relationships
This groundbreaking book speaks directly to men—in a respectful, empathetic voice—about how to improve their most important relationships. Written by clinical psychologist David Wexler, it offers practical tools for men who struggle with the emotional demands of intimacy and the fallout that can come when stress or conflict leads them to act in ways that don’t reflect their true values.
The book challenges the stereotype that destructive behavior equals bad character. Instead, Wexler shows how even good, well-intentioned men can slip into sarcasm, emotional withdrawal, or anger when they feel overwhelmed. By exploring male psychological development, father-son dynamics, and peer pressures, he provides a compassionate framework for understanding how these patterns form—and how to break them.
Through structured exercises and real-life examples, readers learn to:
- Recognize and label their internal states
- Understand why expressing emotions can feel threatening
- Identify triggers for destructive behavior
- Build emotional skills to create shame-free, respectful relationships
Praise
“This insightful book offers a user-friendly look at how a ‘good man’—a man with fundamentally positive values who cares about his kids and his partner—can often display bad behavior... The bulk of the book wonderfully describes the ways that many men, as adults, ‘are always looking to some outside source of approval or recognition’ as a way to resolve feelings of shame caused by an arrested internal sense of confidence and competence.” — Publishers Weekly
“Wonderfully empathic with men's experiences, When Good Men Behave Badly helps men who do not wish to behave badly develop the needed emotional skills. This book will open men’s minds and hearts to a very different way to approach male-female relationships.” — Ronald F. Levant, EdD, ABPP, Co-Editor of A New Psychology of Men
