What does your Wife want from you? • What does my Wife WANT from ME!?
You can kill your marriage a number of different ways. Relationships are far more fragile then we realize. And if we get lazy, if we get busy, if we just tend to forget to prioritize our relationship or our spouse. If we default to certain destructive behaviors. That only leads to one destination. Distance, disconnection, and usually divorce. Here's how to prevent that.

Spot On!!!!!!! The reason women handle divorce better is because they mourned the loss of the marriage while she is in it. By the time she leaves, she’s over it.

"Marriages die in the conversations that never happen." Yup, that's exactly what happened to mine.
-
I showed my husband this video and he yelled at me and told me you’re a “pick me.” Sooooooo yeah, this was the last straw for me. We’re getting divorced, speaking with an attorney on Monday 😢

Before I left my husband, I saw a therapist. I felt desperately unhappy. I wanted to be sure that I wasn’t blaming my husband for dissatisfaction with myself. The therapist pointed out that I was living in an emotional desert.

I remember my sister-in-law asking me if I really wanted to be a single mother when I told her I wanted a divorce from my husband. I told her I was already a single mother.

I came to the conclusion that after years of doing EVERYTHING in my marriage -- when you are doing EVERYTHING - that means you are ALONE.

I’ve been married for 17 years. My husband recently told me that he plans to work less this year, starting 1/1/2024, as he starts to prepare to retire. The consolation: he will “now have time to spend with me.” He doesn’t understand why I’m not jumping up and down with joy… 17 years

As a 70 year old woman, you nailed this. I’m so happy that you have that many subscribers because there’s a great deal of men who need to hear this. For too long women have been blamed for being too demanding; when all they want is a healthy relationship that two people contribute to. May your channel continue to grow. Much appreciation, love and blessings to you and your family ❤

“You’re teaching her to live without you” BINGO! And then, when he finally takes some time to be home, finally making time for the family, he wonders why nobody cares. He expected everyone to be thrilled with his very presence in the house! Instead, he finds everyone doing their own things, because they HAD to. Yes, in his absence, they learned how to live without him.

"When she divorces you, you'll be the only one that feels loss, because she's already lost everything." So sad, so true. Gave me chills.

Finally! A guy NOT blaming women for problems in the marriage. And actually telling men to man-up, take responsibility, and stop playing the victim. Thank you, sir. I pray that men will hear this and have the guts to change.❤❤

I begged and cried for years for my husband to see me, hear me, telling him I was so lonely being at home raising our children, I was so vulnerable and sat in front of him crying my eyes out, he usually called me ungrateful and needy and he sometimes didn’t look up from his phone. It was so humiliating. I don’t love my husband anymore, I gave up, I don’t want to be near him, I’m only here for the kids. He stopped caring, and finally, so did I.

Man I'm not even married and now I feel like I've been neglecting a wife that doesn't exist
-
You can't complain that your wife nags you AND that you dont know what she wants. A "nag" is her telling you explicitly what she wants. And when you dismiss it as just her nagging, that means you dont care enough to listen to what she's saying.

I am a therapist who often works with couples dealing with all of the things you mentioned here. it is SO IMPORTANT for men to hear these things from other men. In sessions, many male clients in heterosexual relationships think I am just “taking her side” when I say the exact same words you say. Usually this is something we can work through. But this step is often avoided when men hear these things from other men. Way to break the toxic masculinity cycle!

"I'm #1 in this marriage " was what my husband told me...loud and clear. Now he wonders why there's so little intimacy in our "golden years". He turned off the spigot of love twist by twist years ago.

This is the pre-marriage class everyone should take.

Married 43 yrs, and yes, he's taught me how to live life without him. It's been a lonely life. I hope that many men take your message to heart - it would be marriage-changing! You are an inspiration! Thank you.
-
For 20 years, I was a married single. When he left, it had absolutely zero impact. In fact, life was easier.
-
I already started to gaslight myself into thinking that i don't need deep emotional connection, vulnerability etc., that it's not necessary for a relashionship bc my partner doesent treat it like such. Thank you for making me feeling validated and connected to myself again
