Why Do Women Run When Men Have Financial Problems? || STEVE HARVEY 

A women’s loyalty is tested when her man has nothing A man’s loyalty is tested when he has everything

On the first year of dating, my husband lost his job and got into a depression after being unable to get re-employed. I supported him emotionally and financially for almost a year while he struggle in getting his licence as a registered dialysis nurse (career change). He eventually passed and got a job. Then I had to go back to school later on and he supported me. Now, we both have good paying jobs. Be patient with each other. Building life together does not happen overnight.

My husband is currently in a point where he can't support us economically. I luckily got an internship that is paying a stipend and I really believe its only because of our situation that I even got the opportunity. I will support him no matter how long it Will be.

i am a woman and i can tell you most of the ladies were not being very honest when answering lol

So we “need” women’s approval for everything but if this was reversed women would say we are too controlling

every single one of those guys said in their head "thats a lie".

5 years relationship was very good. Kept telling me how ''I was the one''. We were talking about marriage. Even though she had gained 100lbs and her libido was gone because of her medicines, I still loved her unconditionally. Even helped her pay her gastric bypass. Then I lost my job and my health got worst. She then left me. Now she's lost weight, has met a guy few months later that makes a lot more then me. That one hit deep. Really thought she was the one.

One way to establish oneself is when you invest in your life ever since I started properly following up on my investments I have been accumulating wealth. The value of expert mentorship cannot be overstated. Without proper mentoring, people tend to exit the market too soon after losing money. That is why I prefer to invest with a professional investment firm because their methods are mind blowing and extremely profitable.

“To approve of what you’re doing” its either a lie or a nicer way to say they dont trust you

Women, children and dogs are loved unconditionally.. Men are loved on the condition that they provide something

Most people procrastinate because they're unsure. We over analyze because we're unsure. Just do it anyway. Time costs lives, Most times it amaze me greatly the way I moved from an average lifestyle to earning over $63k per month, utter shock is the word. I have understood a lot in the past few years to doubt that opportunities are bound in the financial markets, The only thing is to know where to focus.

I really wish Steve is still doing these shows plus his tv shows. Steve is the real deal and I have major respect for this man. A great man!

And people wonder why many men are afraid to get married.

I've never seen such a large group of ppl lie simultaneously.

Women are financially very capable today

So funny how all them ladies are not being honest lol

If the scripts were flipped, and a guy said that his wife needs his approval to do stuff, everyone would be up in arms. They're just insecure as hell.

so he needs her permission to buy something with his hard earned money? That right there is the problem

I was in two different relationships where as soon as she felt that I wasn't as successful in my career as I should have been, she was out. No lashing out required.

May God always bless your mother Mr. Steve You are such an incredible man, all I wish I could become

Remember, dont marry for looks, they fade.Dont marry for money it can be lost.

If a woman leaves because of struggles happening, YOU DODGED A BULLET

I came for the second guy from TikTok because that video cut out right before I could get a answer. Im glad I came because that answer is the truth. Steve is a man of wisdom

As men, we are wired to play egoistic and providers ...

My ex left me when I had lost everything lol. After several years and building several successful businesses, she popped right in my DM's asking how I was doing and asked to meet up again. What a parasite.

The men knew they were lying, that's why they kept booing. Classic!

Us the men being ashamed is true, also telling the truth to your lady you don’t and bring down our Igor for her to support , I think 🤔 is the BEST WAY TO TACKLE THIS ISSUE. Thanks to all the ladies and men who participated. Love ❤️ daddy Steve abundant blessings

Steve has a great way of understanding human psychology

“Fellas, if you lose your job, you’re going to lose your girl. She may not leave you the day you lose it but the countdown has begun.” -Chris Rock

I'm a girl and I know damn well these women only picked the answer that would not make them look so bad, all their answers put blame on the guys . That's what people do though

I'm normally the type that won't comment at such; But honestly this whole show and way things were broken down is a 100% for me, plus Mr Steve Harvey can be said to be a genius at the way he understands and explains out these men's characters/attributes. They should do much more of this... God bless!

Love the way Steve is handling the forum. Lovely!

i would rather be single than have some woman who only loves me when im doing good.

Ever notice in a relationship how the money she makes is HER money, But the money you make is OUR money?

wow Steve is really doing a marvelous job at advocating for the men in their weakest. not all men are capable of conveying what they really feel. Thanks a lot steve for your amazing support.

Thank god my wife is a loyal piece of diamond 🙏

These chicks are lying!!!

If men ran from women with financial problems damn near all of us would be single

Some women say that they would be there regardless, for their husband or long-term boyfriend, but let me ask you this, Had that just been a guy you met? Would you still consider seeing him? despite his financial and emotional hardship? It seems like the only woman that cares about my emotional problems is my own mother

(Investing in crypto currency now should be in every wise individual list, in 2_3years time, you'll be ecstatic with the decision you made today.:)

Most of the survey the women are lying.

"I have trust issues because my boyfriend bought an unapproved motorcycle." Your *BOYFRIEND* doesn't need your approval to buy a motorcycle.

I could honestly say that my step-dad getting laid off from his career (and not being able to get back in even 10 years yes later) killed my parent’s marriage (or at least that’s what started it)

The questions aren’t given the opportunity to be honestly answered. The answers are framed.

I did security in a bar. Woman like men with money period.

Ain't no more love! Only a never-ending search for stability!!!!

Kudos Steve for nailing down both the questions.

And this is why I decided to stay single after my last relationship

I am a grown MAN I don't need anyone to approve of what I am doing, IF the women does NOT trust me then she needs to find someone else.... I know I move on pretty quick when a women thinks she needs to know every single thing I do...

Those women literally chose the most politically correct answer. Shoulda hooked em all up on poligraphs.

A real man’s purpose is to provide for his family. When he finds himself in a situation where he is struggling, in his mind he is failing you. This more often than not is where most men become vulnerable and weak and look to their partner for support. But that support rarely ever comes. The moment you show any sign of weakness or lack of being able to facilitate a womens dreams you are done. She already looking for the next man, if she doesn’t already have one ready to sub into the game.

Harvey you have given a very candid answer to that last question. I love that answer

actually its because women love money and not you. she never liked you it was always what you have to provide.

The men are grumbling because unless you helped him earn that $10 grand that he just spent on a motorcycle, then you have absolutely NO right to complain about it.

Sooo true especially when he said HES NOT LASHING OUT AT YOU HES REALLY LASHING OUT AT HIMSELF‼️‼️‼️🫡

When my husband lost his job I stayed...but he is a habitual job loss. So many times he had good job and self sabotaged. His mental health needs help...but if he's not willing to do what is necessary he will repeat it. I've supported him by returning back to work, homeschooled our children, went to counseling with him and he still hasn't gotten it together. 15 years later, I'm out. It's not on me or the kids...he's almost 50 and won't stop the train wreck. We have 4 small kids.

"Oh you don't have money no more? F*** this I'm gonna find another person to leech off of!"

I had financial problems and I left my wife after 20 years of marriage, because she was the financial problems. She always telling me I never made enough No matter how much I made or how many hours I worked. I gave her all my love and all my money and she couldn't respect it. Now I raise my 2 teenage kids all by myself With out any assistance from her, she's a dead beat. She didn't even call her kids on Christmas. Now I have plenty of money in the bank. I bought me a nice red challenge super bee and a lifted 4 door Jeep Rubicon and I can afford everything now without her controlling my finances. Also I live in a bigger nicer house And my kids are very happy. They have everything they need and a lot of what they want. She was my financial problem I should left her years ago. "MGTOW" I will never let another woman rest her toothbrush in my house ever again!

"In sickness and health. For richer or poorer." So soon they forget.

These Episodes are fantastic

“only women, children, and dogs are loved unconditionally,” whereas “a man is only loved under the condition that he provide something" - Chris Rock

No loyalty, just hypergamy

Wow! I'll try, especially the part of saying no to somethings. Thanks Jessy for this

One of the best videos that I've watched. Thank you for the insights

This was so damn funny every time the men went ‘BOOOOOOO’ It was so funny bc they knew the women were lying.

A woman once told me she was looking for love, I said they make movies for that

When I got my first job my mom made me give her all my money, as she said I owed her for raising me. If I didn't pay her she would have kicked me out, she wouldn't even let me have a phone even though I had to pay her and my sister's phone bill. I tried to move in with friends but I had no money even though I had a job. This is common with black moms, I had a few friends who's moms did the same thing, it makes us realize why our dads left.

This is very very correct when a man is not where he wants to be financially he feels ashamed and he may lash out or not be his best emotionally. My daughter I didn’t go to her dress fitting for her wedding.I’m having a lot of health issues , and a lot of pain and I’m financially struggling temporarily thank God because I’m not able to work as much as I would like I told her I feel ashamed I’m not where I want to be .I feel like I don’t have anything to offer you. I can’t even help financially. She said mom I just wanted you there I told her please don’t take it personal I am in a bad place , in a lot of pain,and I isolate and take a step back so I don’t make everybody else around me miserable. I can relate to how men feel when they’re not where they want to be financially.

Haven't dated in 14 years. The peace is outstanding!

so.. basically a man should provide for someone who controls every aspect of his life... yeaahhh.. nah we equal baby

I LOVE being single. All I need is to see this once a year.

Steve's answer was very supportive of men's lashing out. He needs to express its not her. He needs to come up with compromised ways etc cause it's not for your partner to make you feel good and the partner shouldn't have to wait all the time to live life b/c the man is depressed that she's able to support. My mom got beat down after my step-dad lost his job from an accident. Its scary when a man can't support when they once could. It can bring out a monster with some. No person, no woman have to put up with that.

This is BS...when i was struggling financially id never lash out and they'd still leave...I think they were making up stuff just to try and not look bad

Why do women hate us for having a simple life with a sofa a tv a fridge and a console

I never had that problem... I always found work because I got a skilled that the world needs... True warrior

Thank you. Thank you uncle Steve.

"you lash out at us" = playing the victim

An "unauthorized toy"? Is she his wife or his mother?

Best answer steve

Interesting topic, and comments about relationships.

I'm sorry but some of these women comments are embarrsing!!!! I WOULD NEVER want to rule over or talk in a disprespectful way to my husband. What women don’t realize it doesn't make you look good- it makes you look like you're not worthy of being a wife. IJS

Women who leave their man due to finances, all that mattered to them was materialistic things. At some point my husband had just £10 in the bank, did I leave him, no ofcourse not. I supported him in everything and every decision. After a couple of months things got better, his situation changed. Years later we now have our own home and a wonderful baby. If anything goes wrong again, I am down for my man.

I just love Steve’s wisdom

Steve such events are amazing to show facts and let me say it even with me as a Middle Eastern man with different culture your answers still representing me as a person who is struggling with problems and I understand exactly what you have just said. Appreciate your words man.

When my wife and I were dating, I paid for everything. When she finished her degree and the Great Recession was in full force, I paid for everything. When she got a good job that requires us to move, I quit to go with her. She paid for everything. When we had to move 3 times in one year, she paid for everything. When we were both working, we built up credit and paid off debt. When I went back to school, we could afford to live on one income. Now that I have finished and am making more than both of us combined before the degree, she can expand her dreams now. We built this life together and never gave up even when we thought it would end. It was not easy and we did have hard times. That's life but we are living good and making new memories. Find that right person and make it work. It's hard out there but it is worth it when it comes together for you!

As we Serbs say:"when poverty knocks on a front door, love get out through window" 🇷🇸

This is the truest fact!

4:44 goes both ways . When my man was a bum i was there for him. We almost broke up because when i was a "loser" he was mean to me but i never did that to him 😒. Made me question his loyalty

“You did a lot for me in the past” “But you haven’t done much for me lately” - my old lady

Why do ladies lose interest when men struggle financially? -> Because those men generate no *interest*.

Never been in that situation, but the last lady lady appeared to respond perfectly to her guys needs at the time👍

Real talk

"I've had a lot of long term relationships" Well if that isn't a red flag already, I don't know what is

them women lied

Impatience plays great role here

I wish knew about this sooner before my relationship fall… thanks young Harvey for showing me now.

if a man wants a bike and pays for it with his own money, the woman has no right to dictate on what he can or can't do

Asking women about relationship advice is like asking a blind man to describe colors

For protection.caring

Steve handled this really really well. 👍
