A guide to recognizing and addressing relational aggression among adult women

Cheryl Dellasega examines how patterns often associated with adolescent “mean girl” behavior can persist into adulthood, affecting women as targets, aggressors, and witnesses. Grounded in research, interviews, personal accounts, and expert perspectives, the book identifies forms of relational aggression and their lingering consequences. It addresses practical situations involving adult bullying, offers strategies for stepping out of aggressive dynamics, and frames cooperation as an alternative to hostile social behavior. The emphasis is on recognizing these patterns in everyday relationships and changing one’s own participation in them.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Adults seeking practical approaches to conflict and bullying in women’s relationships
  • Readers interested in relational aggression and its social dynamics
  • Women navigating hostile or exclusionary interpersonal situations

Book overview

Almost every woman has experienced bullying. Whether her role was that of victim, aggressor, or bystander, the pain of relational aggression (female bullying) lasts long after the incident has passed. In Mean Girls Grown Up, Cheryl Dellasega explores why women are often their own worst enemies, offering practical advice for a variety of situations. Drawing upon extensive research and interviews, she shares real-life stories from women as well as the knowledge of experts who have helped women overcome the negative effects of aggression. Readers will hear how adult women can be just as vicious as their younger counterparts, learn strategies for dealing with adult bullies, how to avoid being involved in relational aggression, and more. Dellasega outlines how women can change their behavior successfully by shifting away from aggression and embracing a spirit of cooperation in interactions with others.
