    This reminds me of something that happened to me a few years back. I was with my girlfriend, her brother, and his wife. An attractive girl passed us and my girlfriend commented about how attractive she was. My girlfriend's brother made a brief "yeah" of agreement (not in a sleazy tone, nor even implying that he had really noticed her that much, just a simple agreement). His wife then scoffed and said to him: "well there's no way you could get her". At this point, I said to his wife "so you're saying that she's better than you?" His wife just replied with "huh?" So I explained "well, you said there's no way he could get her, but he got you, so if he's not good enough to get her but he is good enough to get you, that implies that she is better than you."
    My girlfriend quickly cut in to change the subject, but the point still stands. When you insult your partner, it also drags you down as well.

    My grandparents were married for almost 70 years until my grandma died. Till the last day, my grandmother was absolutely obsessed about my grandfather ( so was my grandfather about her, but he was an introverted person) which resulted in them having a loving home and all their kids being supportive and loving to each other till now. My grandma always said "A lion hunts out in the jungle, not in its own den", implying that do not bring your aggression to the place you call home, the world outside is already tough.

    I met a man who I started driving to bible study, with his children on his visitation weekend. On our first drive he started ranting against his ex-wife calling her horrible names and language in front of his two girls, 10 and 5.
    I got him alone after we arrived and told him to never speak of his children's mother like that in front of them. And he should not speak like that at all. That was his childrens mom, whom they love, and he is causing great stress to them hearing this. As well as his actions and behavior is the role model for the future husband these girls will psychologically choose for in a husband. If he wants them to marry an verbally abusive man, keep it up.
    He shut up!!!!!

      @@imanilovely176 perhaps where you're from but in my country we're getting our act together as men. Its a culture that recently popped up where we take care of our own narcissists and psychopaths if they ever think they can do whatever they want and get away with it. For the women you know how they are. You can't say anything negative about them and if you do they'll just publicly shame you, "You're just jealous you can't get a woman at my level, " "You're just broke and have nothing better to do with you're life, " "no you're just a misogynist and you're bitter about women because you got rejected, " I remember talking to some of my female friends about young girls on Instagram and sadism, narcissism and psychopathic behavior. They literally just insulted me for saying something negative about women even after citing statistical evidence and some biological facts. They just wouldn't pay attention to anything I'm saying
      it's really appalling. And social media has enable such narcissistic mindsets, far much more in women than in men and it's alarming. So guys stopped caring about women issues, which I think isn't the appropriate way to go, and started focusing on the young men. The system pays more attention to young girls. There has never been talks or responsible masculinity empowerment campaigns organized by the government as far as my parents experience in the education system is concerned. Even I when I went through the system not once have I heard about such a thing. Even in universities its all about providing opportunities for women. Nothing for the guys at all.
      And so my generation and the previous generation realized this and people began coming together using platforms like Twitter and UA-cam to promote masculine values passed down to them by their fathers and local communities to young men who struggle with finding meaning or purpose for their lives. So that's nice too. Plus we had a civil war in 2007 where politicians used unemployed and uneducated young men as their soldiers. So mothers were fed up of losing their sons in meaningless fights and the men are tired of being used as political pawns. So we have come a long way

      I can't tell you how many times we have seen this among our peers. My husband & I say..."well, you married the person and procreated with them. Must be something you liked about them." If this man's ex was really that horrible, his kids will figure it out all on their own as they grow up - you don't need to hurry it along. My SIL's boyfriend used to make his kids call their biological mother "scumbag Lisa" when they were at his house. I HATED that. Guess what? HE doesn't have a relationship with those kids anymore. He also isn't with my SIL and left behind 3 kids with her. Very troubled people we live around. My husband & I have a rule - we don't hang out with divorced people. They are some of the worst behaving adults around.

      Because it’s such a common thing, my wife and I do it all the time for our own amusement. She’ll out of nowhere say, “He never listens to me, you know. I tell him and he never listens to me.” so I’ll say, “Well if you ever said something worth hearing then I’m all ears. Plus it’s not my fault you snore so much at night.” So she’ll say, “I snore because I’m so nervous because you always hit me in your sleep!” Oh yeah? Well I only hit you because you won’t shut up and you need to learn your place! etc. And on and on we go. The look of sheer terror on people’s faces is absolutely hilarious, because they can’t tell if we’re genuinely angry or just messing around.
      On a side note, we never ever ever get really angry and argue so it’s always the latter.

Do they WANT a failed relationship ? And what could be better than strong successful one?. Thats a prize worth working for.."

    My parents married shockingly young, as I was a bun baking in their collective oven. I arrived in 1958. Despite their extreme youth, and some "normal" adolescent acting out, they remained remarkably steadfast to one another, always had each other's back, never failed to be there for each other, and instilled in me a fierce belief in love and loyalty. They were married until my father's death in 2015. My broken hearted mother lived a brief 3 years after his passing, and died in 2018. I am an only child, and I thank God everyday for the strength, courage, tenacity, gumption, and common sense I inherited from both of my marvelous parents.

    I'm grateful I never married a witchy woman, since the amazing wife I married has made my life seem like heaven throughout the last 51 years of our marriage. I knew I didn't deserve her love and attention because, early in the marriage, I was immature and self-centered in the relationship, and I had no concept how to respect and treat a decent lady. I had grown up without a mother or a lady in our home from the age of four. Girls and women seemed to me as a teenager to be like aliens from another planet. But my wife, whom I met when I was 16, revealed to me that natural lovely spirit that so many women possess. This caring, supportive, and one-of-a-kind woman in our marriage is all I've ever wanted or will ever need. When my life comes to an end, which might be any day as my body battles life's illnesses, I will genuinely be able to say that I have been blessed above other men and agree with the creator that it is not good for a man to be alone.

    I was married to an abusive man; physically, emotionally, verbally. I kept my mouth shut about it for too long, and when I finally could not tolerate the abuse one minute longer and I left him, everyone was stunned and shocked. People said things like, "This is the first we heard of it. She is probably exaggerating the abuse." My own family said stuff like this. I have learned now to speak out when someone mistreats me and I don't care if someone else judges me for it. Silence enables abusers.

      shaunarochelle, perhaps you could steer the conversation away from their beefing about each other and ask for more positive or happy happenings in their lives. It’s setting up boundaries. If they’re constantly looking back into their lives, then they’re not moving forward. Maybe they need to discuss their problems /stuckness with a counselor or such so that they don’t repeat the same faulty ways of relating in their future relationships - break the cycle and grow

    I used to put a boyfriend down in front of my family when I was very young. I learned it from my mother. It was a defense mechanism before I knew how to set boundaries and choose a good partner. He was disrespecting me and instead of ending the relationship I thought i could shame him into shape. I didn't think about or plan it. It was like a reflex from what I had seen for years. My mother notoriously does this to anyone. I learned very quickly that it wasn't effective, and that if I knew myself better I could set boundaries better.

      Well, it depends. In a run-of-the-mill bad relationship, sure. But in a seriously abusive one, the abuse short-circuits the victim's ability to think and act on their own behalf. They're conditioned by the abuse and threat of more abuse to think and act only for the desires of the abuser. And sometimes, an abuser outright tells their victim, "if you leave me, I'll kill you." There's really no way to blame a victim in a circumstance like that.

She is an unhappy person that ended up with my dad through poor life choices (premarital sex & and unwed pregnancy) and he is just stuck along for the ride because he thinks he deserves it. I am 42, so nothing will change with them, I guess. It makes me not want to be around them. I never stick up for my father, because then she turns on me & he will back down anyway.

Not all people who marry abusive partners expect that to happen for example.

      You should be able to joke about everything because a society without laughter is a cold and unfeeling society.
      And as a loving partner you should not want to sensor or force your partner to stop joking about things.
      Besides daring to joke about someone you love like that, makes me think at least that you are so comfortable with that person that you know you can be yourself, joke around and such without them getting their panties in a twist.
      Needing to constantly think about what you are saying around or away from your other half seems exhausting to me and not like a good relationship to begin with.

      Besides joking about others or yourself is a social thing, jokes and laughter bond people. It is not to be mean or belittle someone,and if you think that is what it is, you have missed the entire point of jokes.
      Jokes is a fundamental and important part in our society, and a society without jokes and laughter is a sign of a horrible and tyranical society.
      People need jokes as a way of coping with life, with hardships, to bond and establish strong connections with others and so much more.
      And being so comfortable with yourself and others that you can both take a joke and joke back should show if anything that you are more secure in yourself and who you are.
      Not being able to take a joke and take insult to said joke should if anything prove your insecurity and probably a lack of strong bonds with other people in your life and so on.

    He’s basically saying in complex terms, when you’re with someone romantically-there’s a level of trust and sanctity between you both. When you talk bad or cut down your partner in public, you’re basically saying you don’t value your most intimate relationships. So why should anyone else who’s not your partner trust you or not think you’d say the same negative things about them? While also implying you don’t trust yourself or your own judgment and you’d rather complain about things than change them. Just my 2 cents.

We never really see her & had extended the invite so that her husband could entice her to visit him. It is crushing, too, because we adore her husband & he is such a stand up guy!

He struggles with depression and I had never seen how this mental illness manifested in his day to day life and self care. He had been trying so hard to look functional around me that when he allowed me to live with him I was stunned by how little he would accomplish in a day. I quickly had to change my tune when I realized that commenting on what had not been cleaned or done was only making him retreat Into himself more. Now I try to gently build up his self esteem and if the place looks dirty I leave the house. Usually when he gets some space I come home and the house looks clean. Ultimately I choose him and I accept him in sickness and health. Making him feel bad for not being mentally healthy is a reflection on me choosing to be with someone who is not healthy enough for me. If I can’t deal with who he is today I should leave and do us both a favor. Either buck up or shut up.

The friend insisted it was just normal venting to deal with negative emotions, but I couldn't help feeling like an invasion of privacy had occured. Something unpleasant that existed in our relationship - which ended up being a minor issue that was resolved easily - had been aired out to third parties, putting me on display for judgment by others who were not involved, and had no way of knowing my side of the story. It felt like a sort of betrayal. I thought maybe I was overreacting at the time and didn't say anything about it, but this video has changed my mind.

All relationships start off with everyone on cloud 9 and on their best behavior. One has to give the relationship time, especially since most people today are in relationships for the wrong reasons (escapism).
      Sooner or later people who use other people as a form of escape, as time passes and the relationship is no longer providing any novelty - which WILL happen in every relationship - then one is faced again with themselves, and THAT'S when the projections start, and that's when the mask falls.
      If this is happening to people only in marriage, it's because they themselves are the narcissists who eventually got bored, or they didn't see the signs early on, or got married MUCH too quickly, which often happens when people are on emotional highs, rather than giving it time to see how the partner behaves during difficult times.
      Plus, most men are desperate just to have a girlfriend these days, so they end up bending over backwards to extremes, without comprehending how they are the artisans of their own destruction.

And while most friends will be sympathetic, they don't want the constant drivel. Especially if it goes on for YEARs. I know women that are still b*tching about their ex & they have been married to their current husband longer than the first marriage lasted. The point is, you picked the person for some reason to marry in the first place & it takes two to tango. I babysit for a girl who is divorced. Every. single. thing. is the ex's fault. She can never see her complicity in the matter & it is taking a toll on her darling child.

    It is amazing when someone has a clear and non corrupted mind with hard but truthful approach to human behavior, This man has studied his own mind and related things and also has this genuine need for truth in all respects. One of the hardest task for any human , person, is to be as honest about themselves and their thoughts and any underlying even subconsious thoughts and deeds. Sometimes a close and smart friend can point out some of your weakness in your tought and your expections. Those conversations can have the most benefit for your self, if you don't object them from a personal feelings.

      Force yourself to become comfortable being alone. It will take time and the first year (or more) will be hard. Most of us have an ingrained panic about not being in a relationship and never confront that fear. But once you do, life becomes so much easier and relaxed. It took me 3.5 years of being single to reach that point. Now I have zero desire to ever get married, as I can objectively see it for what it is. I'm happy to date, even the same person for life, but I will never legally bind myself to another human via the state. I came into this world alone and I'll leave it alone, and I may enjoy being with certain people I meet, but I no longer NEED them. Too many people use other humans to fix some flaw or gap they have in their lives and become dependant on them and miserable as a result. People need to grow up.

But this is only the first step of maturity (which, again, is rare to find). There is something else here, the possibility of living a life with commitment and responsability, intimacy, respect, care and openess with another person. A true marriage. Not just a pretended/purely social/economical marriage. A true marriage, when ying and yang are met, where union is what matters, a right, decent and propser relationship that serve both to attain higher levels of maturity. Otherwise, living a life without commitment, with having the possibility of runing away at any time or when things get hard, is just living a teeneger life when older too. And that's nuts.

      @FastAkira 4 роки тому +5

      @@LDT7Y Exactly, but if you onserve my messy attempt to communicate my idea, I was actually saying that the pretended, just social and economical contract called marriage is not a true marriage. For me marriage is the voluntary decision to be and remain in union with a person, and because a relationship is not only about being happy, is also about maturity and responsibility, both man and woman need to really commit to each other. So in hard times, in rough times, in times of temptations, in times of confusion, disappointment, weakness, sickness, and you name it, you will be there too. So both individuals involved share happiness and also sadness, joy and also depression. And in that, in that intimacy, openess, committment and love, grow and fullfilment can happen. Having a partner just becuase now i feel "in love" or because now you gave me pleasure, with no real commitment and passion, is living inmaturely. And living a life without really, really relating with someone else, deeply, is not living fully. And if you allow me this last thought: I believe that the spiritual path of human beings, the ying and yang, the union of opposite poles, female and male energy combined, is there so we can get closer to "God", or closer to what "Existence" wants us to live and florish with.

Unfortunately, my own marriage, included. Every time he would speak of me badly in public, we would have a conversation at home in private, when we arrived back home. Then, he would do it again. I started heading him off when I would see him start, it would only end up in him berating me further, in public. Finally, I stopped caring. When he would get ready to say something, I would walk away. He told me that I was being over sensitive. Yeah, right. Glad that he is someone elses problem, now.

    We've had some very rough patches, but we've always been relatively happy. I know we'd never trade each other. We're never passive aggressive. We are always direct about what bothers us, and we always try to approach one another under the assumption that neither of us is purposely trying to wound the other.
    For my part, I pray every night for my husband. I thank God for him, and think about all the things I value and respect about him. I do this even if I'm furious. It causes me to put my arm around him instead of turning my back to him, even if he's turned his back to me. I feel like we've overcome so much through simple forgiveness, because even if he's not sorry, and doesn't agree that he's done something wrong, I can tell that he values the fact that I seek reconciliation regardless of getting my way or not. I don't know what his process is, but I know that he repays my respect and loyalty with loyalty and value. I often think he gives in to me, not necessarily because he understands me, or my point, but because he values me enough to put his understanding second to his care for my feelings. I am really so blessed, and I feel truly loved and cared for.

      Yes! 100% !!! He has so much fun interviewing comedians when he invited them onto his podcast or they invite him. He understands the mind of comedians. He is a comedian. A true comedian and so so so so much more. 💙

    I was hoping this was about women who charge their crystals during a full moon, use tarot cards and cleanse their apartment with palo santo.

    Many men can spot "crazy" a mile away. But we're bored, too domesticated, and the animal in us needs a occasional challenge, some excitement in our lives. So we go for it. And lose every time.
    But, it's still a less dangerous an activity than our ancestors played at, like having to risk their life attacking another tribe to steal themselves a bride, then dragging her home to mate with, make you some bread out of acorns.

    In my therapy for social anxiety disorder I am told that I shouldn't think of myself as inferior/inadequate. I cannot reason myself into that position because I know I'm not adequate. I have been avoiding 'dragons' my entire life. I don't think I can feel good about that and I don't think I should.
    I need to adopt the responsibility I have been avoiding all this time.

    Raven hair and ruby lips,
    Sparks fly from her fingertips.
    Echoed voices in the night,
    She's a restless spirit on an endless flight.

      Yes. They are the lyrics to "Withcy Woman" in reference to the title of this video....which was totally unrelated. I don't get it.

      @Anewlevel You make no sense. I'm going to point out when things don't make sense. What do you even mean by your statement? In highschool they had us read an excerpt or a few paragraphs of a topic being explained and then had us answer what the best title for it might be. The best title of this is nowhere near "Men who marry Witchy Women". He said "barbarian witches" once. It's not the topic. The topic is about having a good relationship with your partner and protecting it in public and then he completely goes somewhere else with it. So what are you even talking about?
