Need to heal a broken marriage? I did. And I had to learn the hard way that the reason my marriage failed was because I was unknowingly depriving it of the things it needed to survive. Things like intimacy and friendship and closeness and connection and emotional safety and trust. Those aren't add on's. Those aren't optional. The presence or absence of them determines whether your marriage lives or dies. Please don't make the same mistakes I did. Heal your marriage now before it's broken forever.

"It's not your role to decide which feelings of hers are right and which ones are wrong. If she says you hurt her, you dont get to decide if you didn't." I wish my husband understood this.

Yeah, a lot of the times I feel like what he “needs” as for me to just make him feel good and never have a bad day and never have any emotions or feelings that are negative about our relationship or life or how he is acting. And don’t forget, reminding myself “how good I have it” or “I have a good husband and just don’t know it”

The more videos I watch about fixing your marriage the more I realize it’s over. When your husband has been cheating on you even before you got married and still continues to hurt you you have to accept one person can’t fix it and if the other one isn’t willing it hurts like hell. Cuz I love my husband but he doesn’t seem to love me.

How to stay in a miserable marriage is a choice too. I stay 35 years in an abusive marriage. My husband was intelligent, well educated, attentive to our home and children and a hard worker. However, he had a personality disorder which led him to control others through manipulation and physical, emotional, financial abuse and for me, sexual punishment. I learned to endure his abuse, cover up his behaviors and serve him and our family. When the children became independent adults, i was finally free to escape my abuser. I have gone no contact and had four years of trauma counseling for PTSD. Staying wasn't easy. I did it though and now I am finally safe and free.

I have watched almost all of your videos over the last month. I'm so crushed that my marriage is actually coming to an end this time. It took me a long time, but over the last few years, I have learned a lot about the work on both sides through therapy, reading, and online resources. My wife has never been able to stay with me in doing the work. I am so devastated. Seven different therapists over 7 years (hers, mine, and ours,) and not one was able to see it and call it out like you do.

Hey Jimmy . Thank you for unloading the real truth on all of us. I want to memorize it and live it. My marriage has died. She said love isn’t enough. I like you made mistakes and have unresolved childhood issues that came up and cause me to lose focus but not faith in Creator. So I’m shown my faith wasn’t enough either. Please forgive us all Creator! We did not want to break our promise to you!!! 😢Please help us get through this! I wish this video had of come out 6 months ago. God and myself maybe could have saved the love of my life. I continue to learn and to dig for the truth that will help us in all things. So we can follow his lead instead of ours. But we don’t know what we don’t know . As a mechanic I can’t fix what I don’t know how to fix. Thanks for more tools and guidance. Maybe God will send another after I fix myself😢😢

I feel so hurt by this video, at this point of my marriage I have been burnt out trying to serve, trying to reflect the example of Love thru God's words. I have continuously read my word, studied my husbands actions and try to serve him in the ways I think he wants to be loved because he won't express himself, I have carried so much of the load for so long and now I feel like the burden of being that 1 person who can change the state of a marriage again, falls back on me. It feels like I have been working so hard on this marriage for so long that even now when I search out for more learning I'm only running into the advice that "1 person can save a marriage". I don't know how much more of his burdens I can shoulder anymore without letting it change my core values & who I am as a person.

Desha-Ann... I so hear you. I learned how much of an enabler I have been in a codependent relationship. I had to step back, focus on me , STOP doing some of the bad habits Jimmy mentioned ....as I have traditionally been the pursuer (recovering from childhood feelings of invisibility) while he has been the avoidant (physical, verbal childhood trauma). Self care includes checking my own negative contribution. And when he asks what's wrong, I have to be honest...I am working on myself. It can feel like rejection...for both of us...but when in negative, I believe it is necessary to meet at 0 before moving along to positive. Good luck. Keep learning. Keep execercising new skills. Keep leaning in, but not over, from your side of the street. 😘

I know you commented mos ago, but please know that the *only* time 1 person can save a marriage is if it's the person who was killing it, & they want to relent and fix it. If you're Christian, pls remember that even Jesus was betrayed and rejected. He served people hand over fist, and they still literally crucified Him. You are not more powerful than He. Remember Matt 18. W/out being too lengthy, there are dozens of Scriptures about parting ways w toxic people & their toxic behavior. Please consider reading The Emotionally Destructive Marriage by Leslie Vernick, and Boundaries in Marriage by Cloud & Townsend; followed up by The Life Saving Divorce by Gretchen Baskerville. Christian or Secular, I strongly recommend Verbal Abuse by Patricia Evans, & Why Does He Do That by Lundy Bancroft. Terry Real's books (also secular) are pretty solid, too, but won't work if you're the only person trying to save the marriage. Much love!

I feel your pain. I did the work, he made empty promises.

God told men to love and women to submit to that love. You cannot submit to something that is not there and expect success.

There is some very very good advice to be found here. I’ve been selfless for over 10 years in this relationship and my heart is absolutely trashed to the point it’s beginning to overflow to all other areas of my life. I only want to be loved and respected too. I’m subscribing to this channel so I can learn to be a better person. I hope one day God will see my hurt and loneliness and connect me with a good woman who put’s Jesus first in her life. I’m so lonely I could cry. Thank you for trying brother, I love you. Sound advice but it can only work in a relationship where BOTH people have at least the smallest amount of love for one another. A basic respect. You cannot build a house without a foundation

Hello from the other side :) I'm in the same boat as you but as the wife in the situation! I just wanted to say i get it. It's HARD. I don't have any other advice but i can relate I've been trying to work on myself to see why I've been in people pleasing mode, trying to show my whole personality, trying to be more open and honest, trying to be less of a martyr etc. Which was really hard But so, so satisfying But it's backfiring xD I'm honestly past my threshold and have no energy left to give. This video is so great but like you've said, we feel like we've been doing it already and we've also been carrying our spouses and doing work for them. Us being here is doing work for them 😅🥲. At the same time i feel like sharing it with them will not go over well either and so i feel stuck You deserve the love you're putting in returned. You need to believe you are worthy of better too. The only way left to go is living out loving ourselves more, hoping for that last spark that could be a catalyst for a better treatment I hope in your case, it won't backfire like with me I wish you all the best 💖🙏 know you aren't alone!

I’m praying for a way to share your content with my husband. He’s come A LONG way.... he had fallen into depression & used alcohol for 15 years while abusing me both mentally &! physically. I hung on & ended up fasting & praying for his healing & for the man I loved to return to me. God has been doing a great work in him & he’s been walking alcohol free (with no desire for it) for 5 years. I suffer from PTSD now on account of what I’ve been through, but I sincerely believe that if we had a few more tools & direction we could regain the relationship we began with (which was truly an awesome one that many friends were jealous of.... which is why I held on for so long).

Thank you for posting this. I’m a Christian and became Christian long after I got married. The issue is my unbelieving husband has been lying to me, gaslighting me and cheating on me. He has a porn addiction and messages sex workers online. He claims he’s never slept with any of them, but he lies straight to my face so much and so easily that I don’t believe him. I don’t trust him. We’ve been through this for years and each time he sees me go through the pain, he says he will change, but he never does. I’m at my breaking point and I have been wanting to heal and fix our marriage because I love him and I believe anyone can change if they want to, but I feel like my husband just gives me lip service and pretends to be repentant because he never actually changes and always goes back to continue the deeply hurtful actions when he thinks I won’t find out. I just want to know what to do here. I feel like leaving him is something God wouldn’t approve of, but at the same time I just can’t do this anymore. I have been wishing I would just die so I don’t have to do this anymore. Do you have any Christian advice for my situation?

Greetings. I've only recently come across your videos and I thank God for that. I'm Roman Catholic and happily married for 25 years, by God's grace. I prayed and asked God for "a husband like St. Joseph was to Mary!". I also asked God to make His choice for me as clear as possible and He did ... I 100% believe that God is the best Dating site with 100% success rate, because he knows everybody's business! I believe that God is able to and WANTS to find the best fit for you ... despite your physical or emotional brokenness! BUT you have to listen to Him and be guided by Him. God will definitely warn you about what is Not good for you and open you eyes to what is good. Remember... God will NEVER break His rules about marriage, as is written in the Bible. Trust in Him. Listen to His voice.

Jimmy, my marriage is very much in turmoil right now. I am very likely not your denomination of Christian (Roman Catholic here), however, EVERYTHING you have said regarding marriage, love, and God's beautiful gift to us as well as God himself ABSOLUTELY resonates with me. The underlying understanding of God's precious gift of Marriage is all the same. I am the "neglected wife". My husband (Byzantine Catholic) has finally hit a point where he is open to different ideas. Our recent marriage counseling session has shown me that he realizes there is work to be done. But not the toilsome type of work, the joyful, celebratory type of work that keeps a marriage alive and special and the best gift God has given humans. Thank you.

I first saw your shorts and thought they were informative and funny and moved on to the longer videos and podcasts. I’m so thankful to you and your wife for sharing your experiences with us so we can all grow and learn. Your advice is so valuable and the examples are relatable and I appreciate everything that you’re doing to help others. Being Catholic, I appreciate the religious help as well. This is definitely one of my favorite videos you’ve ever made. Each one is packed with so much information that I have to listen to it multiple times so it sinks in. Please tell your wife how much I like her plants in the background. Wish I could see a plant tour. She has a green thumb, for sure!

My hub and I went to counseling separately because of an automatic protection order that lasted 7 months during which time we became legally separated. He hurt me what ended in me needing spine surgery. He desperately wants to get back together but I cannot do it. And he found out through therapy that he has anger, depression and intimacy issues. How would I even begin to deal with any of that again? He says he’s working on it, but he can’t prove it unless we’re together and that scares me to death. But he keeps pressuring me and saying that he’ll just file the motion for divorce because he thinks I’m over him and he wants to move on (he’s 67, I’m 62). The main reason I stay with the legal separation is because 1. Of our marriage and 2. Because he holds the medical insurance for me. Some people will say that that’s incredibly shallow for me to stay legally separated, and at the same time legally married for insurance purposes, but I honestly don’t feel I should be a ward of the state.

You nailed it. For almost 4 years ago because of work performance I started on a professional development that turned in to a personal development path. I have learned so much about me and the things I needed to work on - my learned toxic behaviors, finding out that I have ADHD with rejection sensitive dysphoria (which can lead to me spiraling). My sister actually said to me that people talk about doing the work and I'm one of the only people she knows who is actually *doing the work.* I have so much work to do and I wasted so many years not being a good partner,employee, parent, or person really. I am a much happier person growing and working.

My husband was still in Buddhism..The Holy Spirit took me out of it..He didn’t understand the need for individual counseling so I went again on my own for 2 1/2 years..God showed me so much..He was stonewalling and was being passive aggressive and just wouldn’t talk about anything and mean anything..I understood trauma brain yet he didn’t seem to… then he wanted to go marriage counseling.. yet the glimmer of hope was shorty lived after all 3 times he just kept saying we don’t have anything in common. He said my honesty scares him. …I left him make a decision if he wanted to continue. He chose not to and wanted to leave. We left each other in peace and I told him I would pray for him…..He didn’t know God and the miracle God works in a heart if we can humble…It just wasn’t his time..God is in charge

Hello Jimmy! Thank you for your content! I've been watching your videos alot lately due to my lack of knowledge on what a relationship requires. You're helping me so much. There's one thing that you should look over, and that's trust. Jeremiah 17 cursed is the man who trusts in man. Trust in the lord with all your heart, there is no room to trust in anyone or anything else. God is a jealous God and when you put trust elsewhere you are giving them something thats for God. When my bishop was going over trust and love, and i got confused because I have a picture says was love is and in there it says it always trusts. He said this is from a bible that was translated wrong. You dont have to trust someone to love them. We can't even trust ourselves. In a marriage it is our job to love our partner even when they do things that hurt us, not to trust that they won't do it. Of course, that doesn't they can go and do whatever and it will be alright. I dont recall the bible verse, but it talks about a man with a wife who sleeps with other men. God told him to love her still. Again, thank you for this great content!
