The majority of people who think commitment phobia is a problem are women. Is it any wonder that men are reluctant to commit with divorce courts being so one sided against them ? A man who gets burned in a divorce is extremely reluctant to commit to the next women he gets involved with. Trying to "change your partner" sounds so much like a women. If he is so good why would you want to change him ? Men aren't raw clay meant to be molded. Attempting to change a man makes them better liars and resentful towards their partners. As you already found out, if you are having friction in a developing male relationship making him sit-down and talk is a nonstarter. Our mothers, teachers, older females disciplined us in that way as children. Even a mature male is afraid of a female yelling at us. BTW, the eyebrows and eye lashes look good on camera.
This was a fantastic conversation. I learned so much and really appreciate the emphasis on harm reduction. I think if more people struggling with substance use disorders knew about that, there would be more openness to treatment early on.
This was brilliant! I applaud you both for sharing your relationship struggles and growth with such courage and vulnerability. Steph, I could listen to you all day. You are brilliant. As a fellow introvert who can pass as an extrovert, I need so much time to process and can't be rushed. And I love the description of the "Dragger" and "Draggee"! So true! I also love the way it ended with loving affirmations towards each other. Thanks to you both for being so open and real <3
"don't interrupt your enemy when he's making a mistake" - napoleon i think in the context of divorce, what people find difficult is the necessity of switching to the extreme mindset of being at war and all that entails because that is what is immediately required
AI lip syncing and voice cloning is going to hurt your channel. I believe if the marriage is working monogamy is the way to go. That means sex is good well okay enough to avoid affairs. If marriage is good and sex is not good then drop the monogamy attempt. Go have sex Go have sex.
I love that you clarified that you can separate your own feelings about Valetine's Day from what your partner needs on that day. I happen to be married a man who dislikes Valentine's Day exactly the way I do, but whenever I've been with a guy who likes Valentine's Day, I go with it because I interpret that as his love language. Separately, Ashtyn's face when you said "call each one" is priceless! 🤣♥
