My wife's number one is her mother, looking back it has been that way throughout our marriage. Although my wife's mother died six years ago the mother is still the bar to high that I will never be able to reach. I told my wife at one time that she should have married her mother because to my wife the sun rises and sets in her mother. Looking back over the years it was her mother that my wife would gravitate to on any issue. My wife prides herself in that her mother was married and divorced three time holding that up as a high standard. Because that mother bar was so high, I too was never really appreciated so I lived a double life as much as possible. I have withdrawn from our relationship knowing that it is what it is, it's just the way it is.

I was subjected to this for the last 3 years of my marriage, no affection, always wrong, alone in the relationship as she replaced me with other people and activities. She eventually asked for a divorce, despite my efforts, including counselling, and at that point I couldn't think of any reasons within the relationship to object. Six months later I am healthier and wealthier, I have my dogs and hopefully soon a home of my own where I can live the rest of my days in as much peace as can be found.

As a man and a husband of 30 years hear this. It is impossible NOT to take being emasculated or made wrong personally. Especially when it comes from your wife. Your husband may play the game and allow you to exonerate yourself but deep down it still hurts him. No matter how much you rationalize. It’s abuse pure and simple.

I have had similar feelings. Through much of my marriage it felt like respect came upon me the moment I stepped outside to head to work, and then would begin to shed piece by piece as I drove home, the last shred evaporating the very moment Id step through the doorway of MY home. And during those years (and still) one of the most positive feelings I'd manage came when I'd pull up to my house at the end of a long, hard day, and I'd see that her car wasn't there. She's not home!

I experienced the "I'm unhappy" thing more times than i could count, and it always seemed to occur around things directly related to something I needed or wanted... like a holiday spent with My Family or a visit from one of my adult kids and my grand children. There just had to come a point when she made sure I knew how unhappy she was.

I asked my wife the other day why she never apologizes. She replied "because I'm not the wrong" even when she berates me, treats me like a child or shoots me nasty looks. But im expected to apologize. Even when I try to be an active father showing tough love to her boys (not my biological children) she protects them and invalidates my parenting in front of them and blames their lack of respect for me on me instead of her shielding them. She bites my head off all the time for simple comments or parenting decisions for my own daughter and then blames me for the argument. Whenever I do things to help her she has to micromanage things and tell me I'm doing it wrong. It's bad enough I have to deal with an ex-wife that treats me the same and I have to contend with an extremely ADhD child in the mix I've never felt so alone in life and yet I'm married! I can't talk to her I can't speak my mind and self-censor a lot! I feel emotionally trapped. I don't know what to do. I'm not perfect but I know when I'm owed an apology and it never comes.

My marriage is coming to an end but I find a lot of comfort knowing that you understand my pain. No matter what I did or how much I did, I was always wrong and wanting. It was never about what I did and always about what I couldn't or didn't do. I was muted, casted aside, emasculated, disrespected, rejected, over and over and over again. Those rare days that things went right, I'd breathe a sigh of relief, but those days when even one thing went notably wrong? I'd never hear the end of it. Sex stopped around the same time affection and respect did. It was the longest, most humiliating, and isolating 2 years of my life. My friends could barely recognized me; my self-esteem was a pile of dust. I feel seen for the first time in 2 years watching your video. Thank you.

When a woman gets married you need to make a pleasant welcoming environment for your husband to come home to. Don't nag as soon as he walks through the door. Learn to cook and plan meals. When a man gets married he expects to have sex with his wife.

I dealt with the constant criticism from my wife in all the ways you described except for drinking (never was fond of the taste). After my youngest child turned 18, I told my wife I was leaving due to over 20 years of being belittled and criticized for everything I did. I told her many times over the years that her constant criticism made me more uncomfortable in my own home than anywhere else on earth, and she couldn't have cared less. She was a score keeper, but never counted anything I ever did. Modern women are toxic.

If you truly think and feel your wife is "toxic" for you and in general, it is your duty to file for a divorce. You cannot let the misery go on, and on, and on. If she doesn't care, then just divorce her, why would she care? I don't know how come you ended up in the destructive blame-game, but you should have divorced her, let's say after two years of thinking and feeling she was "toxic". An adult has a responsibiity to stop abusive behaviour, and when needs be to distance oneself from the toxic situation, by moving out and go no contact. (No words can stop some people. You have to act.) I say this just to clarify, not to accuse. It would have been helpful if somebody would have told me this, when I out of pity stayed way too long with my ex, just not to make him look like a sore loser. Though I didn't tell others a word about why I had to move out, everybody who knew both of us, automatically assumed it was because of his negativity. It was. I got PTSD. I had been a bad example for others. I was very unhappy. I was broke and broken. But I worked hard to repair and switch to a constructive tack. I hope the bucket actually stopped with me. I really think it did, to 99%. Though it took way too long for me to get out and start anew from scratch.

My wife refused to work, even when we had just one child going to school. I worked multiple jobs and long hours. She would call me at work and tell me I had to get home to make dinner because it was my turn. The house would be trashed when I got home in the evening, the breakfast dishes still on the table, the living room filthy, the kids sitting on the clean clothes on the sofa because there was no clean place to fold them. Every night I'd clean the house and get the kids going on their homework. I realized she was doing all this to show me who was boss. I divorced her and went on to earn a high income and remarry with a beautiful, hardworking girl. I wasnt perfect, but I was a good guy.

Make no mistake about what would happen if you did find a way out of the relationship. Your image among all of your family and friends would promptly be destroyed and your relationship with your kids and grandkids would be over. They will all take your wife's side. In my opinion, it is best to try to teach and enlighten your wife, then your kids. Such is the lot for men, especially if we have a family. It is our job to show them the way, even when we are suffering and going through things as well. Like a good boss or coach does, we must not put our issues onto them, so as to prevent over burdening them. Not fair, but just the reality. Eventually you will be able to make them aware of your perspective or issues once they are more emotionally mature and resilient enough.

I was wondering if this came down to culture or gender because I'm American and she's German and we live in Germany. Now, I see that so many men have the same problems that I have. Once you have kids with her, she has her claws in you. I wish I could leave but I love my kids and I take my responsibilities as a father serious. I have been warning her, when the kids are gone, so am I. Fishing is so much easier than dealing with relationships.

Unfortunately, the more we treat them like queens, the less respect we get in return. It seems that women are able to last about 3 years on their best behavior. That takes a lot of effort to stay in character until they secure the legal marriage. Having children is the final hurdle to think you will now put up with all her crap for the kids sake. We don't want our kids to have a broken home. I am recently a red pilled man and wish I learned this 40 years ago.

After a man has kids, the wife knows he is trapped. If he divorces now, the whole World will blame him. So she does as she pleases. Refuses to work. Refuses sex. Ignores him. Talks to her friends about him. Emasculates him in front of the kids. She goes full evil. Naturally, the husband is losing his mind being trapped in his house with an intentional nemesis. His outward responses are anger, frustration, confusion, dispair, depression. The only sane and legal solution is to open a new bank account and transfer all funds possible without her consent or knowlege. Then buy another home with only his name on it. Leave the wife, and file for divorce and request joint custody. Now he lives in quiet peace and enjoys his kids without her. No need to drink.

I’m going to be honest with you though. Tons of women here are looking for financial stability and that’s what they’ll be hoping to get from you. On the upside of things, most Filipinas are very traditional, family-oriented and caring people; they’ll stay loyal to you and look after your every need.

My experience is that if you are nice then it's seen by many as an invite to treat you any old way, whether in relationships or the workplace etc. The trick is to find that right person that appreciates and values it while they have it, not just after you're gone. That's not easy. I had one of those wives that saw my personality as an invite to kick me around. I became a walkaway husband I suppose when my youngest turned 18, but was later lucky to meet another woman who fully appreciates me. And I in turn appreciate her for the kind soul she is.

Based on your comment, I assume that we are in a similar situation. If that is so, I have a little advice or perspective. My wife & I have been together over 15 years. In retrospect, the disconnect in our relationship started when she got pregnant with the twins 14 years ago, but we or I didn't see it until we were almost 10 years in. That's when I came to the conclusion that you have come to now. My wife has come around but it took year's. At first she thought it was a trick, she didn't trust the change/growth that I had committed to. There was also a lot of resentment that needed to be over come. She is now working on herself. It sucks, but you can't expect a quick fix when it comes to women & hurt emotions. Just because you are growing & changing doesn't mean she will do the same at the same pace or in the same time frame. If she really loves you & wants things to work deep down, she will have to change & become a better wife, person, (I hate this word when it pertains to marriage) & partner. & so will you. Good luck.

@@melkerner - Unfortunately, both are at fault but men are responsible overall. Society has destroyed women (by giving them power and freedom) and convinced men that they have no control over the situation but that is not (always) the case. Men are expected and required to lead. Most women, like children, will do what you let them get away with. If a man will set standards and boundaries and hold the line early on in the marriage and not let his wife get out of bounds or allow her to fail to meet the standards, then both of them will be much happier. Deep inside, most women want to be ruled over (benevolently) and feel much happier when that is the case. They have to test those boundaries to feel safe and secure. It's called a "shit test". If the man is not strong enough to handle her, or does not hold the boundaries because he thinks it's wrong for him to do so, the woman feels unsafe, unsecure and it makes her unhappy. Women are constantly fighting themselves. What they feel they need inside, (to be lovingly ruled over) vs what society and their brain is telling them (be strong and independent). It has gotten so bad that a man setting boundaries might cause the wife to divorce him but ideally it's done before they have children so the pain and suffering is minimized.

I just discovered your channel tonight! Now I’m afraid I will be binge watching. 😂 I’m 72, been married 52 to my high school sweetheart. Married at 19 to the prettiest girl in our graduating class. Went in the service at 18, married at 19, had our 1st child at 22, 2nd at 24. The spontaneousness, the playfulness, the amazing sex, the cuddling we enjoyed during those early years all went away when the kids arrived. Her adoration of me and of our marriage disappeared too. At 30 (we are the same age) I had a profound religious experience which altered the hard partying and carefree lifestyle we both had lived…up until that point. Because of my sudden change (which she constantly questioned) she began spending time with a male co-worker in what was described as a “just friends” relationship. He was like the “old me” I guess. She had always enjoyed fishing (I never did) and he had a farm pond. She would ask me to watch the kids for the afternoon on the weekend as she wanted to go out to “Joe’s” and catch some supper for us. She said he gave her an open invitation and even said he was working so she’d be the only one there besides his mom. This became a fairly regular occurrence. You can guess the rest of the story. She had a 2 year affair with him before I found proof. We stayed together for the kids and because of my faith I eventually forgave her but I’ve never forgotten. It is still the thorn in my side that reminds me everyday that what was once a fairytale marriage had turned to ashes. She never really apologized or gave me a full throated explanation as to why she did what she did. She just exhibited a self loathing demeanor for a short time then has acted ever since like it never happened. I was hoping, especially once we were empty nesters, that the spontaneous, playful, great sex and even the innocent cuddling would return. But it never did. She has never slipped her hand in mine, never told me she loves me out of the blue or laid her head on my shoulder. We have become roommates in our beautiful home. We enjoy our 4 dogs, vacationing, camping and visiting our amazingly successful kids and beautiful grandkids. Our sex has been a routine ritual for decades, not a spontaneous show of affection, which is something I have always craved. She seems to be 100% satisfied with this arrangement but I have felt empty for so many years and so many times I have wondered if I’d be happier if I walked away. I know she would never agree to marriage counseling, saying after 52 years and still being together we should be doing the counseling. At 72 the light at the end of my tunnel is getting dimmer. My time to pursue a happier life is drawing closed. What unhappiness would my kids and grandkids experience if I were to leave her? They all hold us both in high esteem. Do I destroy that manicured perception they have of us for my own happiness? These are the questions that have occasionally kept me up at night. Perhaps your videos will shed some light my way.

Sorry to hear about all of that. I been married for 26 years & my divorce will be final in February 2024. I never wanted to be divorced but she left for a trial separation for 3 months thinking that it would make me do what she wanted. I had so much peace in that 3 months I didn't want her back. Im a man of faith as well. My kids are grown so it made things much easier. I know the term is over used but my soon to be ex wife was a covert female narcissist. We went to couples counseling. I had 2 years of separate counseling. My family & friends all support my decision, but most importantly I wasn't going to make a move unless the Lord gave me peace about it. You've been married for 52 years. I was prepared to stay in my marriage forever until my wife abandoned the family. Your wife committed Adultey. God give grounds for divorce for that. The question you have ask yourself is if you did divorce what then. You need to go to counseling & self improve. Start working on yourself. I don't know your wife so I can't speak for her but I will just tell you. When a women cheats with another man she is showing you that she has NO RESPECT FOR THE HUSBAND. And the fact that you just forgave her with NO CONSEQUENCES she sees you as a wimp. She should have no problem going to counseling after ADULTERY. I hope this helps you. My ex wife's respect for me has gone through the roof. She has asked me back countless times but I refuse to go back to No Sex, and her taking NO ACCOUNTABILITY OR APOLOGIES. The years I have left will be way better than the last. Good Luck to you & I will be praying for you. Stay strong in Him.

@@mattd8868 …thank you. Your prayers are much appreciated. Remember, her adultery occurred 40 years ago. I was a brand new Christian at the time and felt God wanted me to forgive her unconditionally if she was willing to stay and try to fix what was broken. She had agreed to that. Now I am certain she would refuse consoling this late in the marriage just because it’s been 40 years and she has remained faithful since then, I am sure of that. There have been 2 instances in the distant past where she slipped up in conversations, recalling something her and her male friend did but attributing it to us. For example, we entered a restaurant 70 miles from our home that I’d never been to and she said “we’ve ate here before” to which I replied that we’d never even been to this little town. Half way through arguing about that she stopped and had the deer in the headlight look. Reading her face I knew she had just recalled that it wasn’t her and I but her and Joe who had ate there. The argument abruptly ended. I waited a couple minutes and said “so you and Joe ate here. Can you tell me what I should order off the menu.” (in an extremely sarcastic tone) The wound she opened that day remained opened for a long time. It brought back a flood of memories I never wanted to revisit. So now I am somewhat confused on what to do. I truly believe living by myself (and of course having a companion dog or 2) would diminish and/or eliminate much of my current discontent. Seeking personal consoling may answer some questions but I’m not sure it would provide any concrete solutions at this point. I feel I’d just be given suggestions, but I could be wrong. I plan on having us 100% debt free in the coming 6-9 months. Should we divorce that would make the road easier. We only owe a small balance on her new car and our 2 year old RV. Everything else is paid for (house, my truck and sports car). My feeling is with no financial obligations she would be more agreeable to an amicable division of property. But then again I could be wrong…

We each have to accept some share of responsibility for our current, unhappy situation and then rebuild ourselves before we can rebuild the marriage.

Although this lady has some good points that should be directed at women, please notice that almost everyone commenting on the video is men who LOVE hearing that their unhappy marriage has nothing to do with their own behavior. The reality is that happy successful marriages take both people working to make it successful. My guess is that your wife is feeling Resentful about something. Have you ever asked her that? ( and dont tell her how she is wrong to feel that resentment) And then have you asked her if she thinks she can get beyond that resentment and give the marriage a fresh start?

⁠You're missing the whole point. His wife has had FORTY years to build a defensive system which blames him for practically everything that has gone bad in their relationship. GOOD Men are more than willing to put in the effort to make things better, but when those efforts are REPEATEDLY met with derision, silence, and a complete lack of effort on HER part, what is there to fight for at that point? They've just been roommates for 40 years. His wife is "resentful" that he is still a man after all these years and all she has wanted to see in him is a reflection of her, when they both should have been a reflection of God's grace and love.

An elderly friend at church and his wife told me before they even got married they laid some very simple ground rules they focused on. First their relationship with god, second their relationship with themselves, third their relationship to each other within their marriage, and then everything else. Many of the younger women I have met or been involved with whether intentionally, ignorantly, or otherwise focus on themselves in very selfish and self-centered ways. I think other men have mentioned it, but when I got divorced from my ex-wife the sheer relief that I felt was like the weight of a car coming off my shoulders, and this perpetual storm raging around me subsided.

Especially if she is a covert or overt narcissist. She uses shame, insults, guilt, need to be right at all costs, scolding, manipulation, gaslighting. And on top of that uses sex, intimacy, etc. as weapons and withholds or punishes you. She is never happy due to deep emptiness and darkness of spirit. Her mindset is just to take supply from anyone possible to pump her up or give her control and dominance. To destroy your life and make you feel responsible for all the problems.

This is incredible! I hope you get 100X the audience you currently have! I did not learn any of this until my marriage ended. We have three sons, and she had an affair after 18 years. I learned all this finally with some counselling we did after it was over in her mind, but she really was just barely starting to get a glimpse of it. She projected so much onto me that was never true about my thoughts or feelings. I’m still proud that I never disengaged or stopped pursuing her. I did not internalize her abuse. But I never understood it until it was all over. This video nails it. What a nightmare to live. I don’t believe she was very much this way when we married at a young age. I believe social media and mommy shaming/guilt and all that sort of thing fed into her negative self image. I can only imagine now how cheating on me and leaving me has made it so much worse for her internally.

Even in everyday conversations, she is literally tuning out, and she'll suddenly start talking to our daughter about something. Or just talk to me about something else MID-SENTENCE. Of the 2nd sentence at that. Or she'll take out her phone literally while I'm talking, start messaging somebody. I'll wait for a response and get nothing. I ask for one, and be met with "Can I just finish writing to this person?" For real. When I try to communicate something that upset me, it's just met with defensiveness, and she'll tell me all the reasons why I don't have a right to be upset and that she's the one who should be upset. It's all I've learned from her -- I cannot tell her the truth. And the truth at the bottom of it all is that she doesn't actually know me because I don't feel like I can show her -- even though there's nothing I'd want more. It can get lonely as hell.

My wife did the "You're always wrong" bit, but with a twist. OTHER men were always "right". No matter what. Constant criticism, and she constantly lied about me. The last year we were together, she constantly texted and spent time with someone else all while telling everyone how she was divorcing me. And when I asked her about her divorce plans she said "I'm not doing thaaaat". Right. She out of the blue had us in a "counseling" session, where she said she wanted to work on "It", but never said it was her marriage she wanted to work on. Well, came out during the session that she'd lied about me to the counselor, and that was the last session despite her saying we needed more.

This hit me like a sledgehammer. Been married for 33 years and our relationship is in peril. She's not happy. There is no intimacy nor affection to speak of. If i want a kiss I generally have to initiate it. She's never been happy with herself and no matter what I do won't change that. She's afraid of counseling because it will cause her to face her demons that she's carried since she was a child. I'm lonely and depressed. I'm not one to give up but I'm about done.

Tim I was there after 26yrs. You can't make her happy, she has to make herself happy. I tried that for yrs to no avail. This may be hard to take , but I say this with love to you, you need to get a divorce. I did 2yrs ago and it hurt like hell but through counseling etc. I am happier now than ever before. You won't die without her, you will thrive because that's what men do after a divorce. Not being demeaned, emasculated, nagged etc. is the greatest "win" in a divorce. You may take a hit financially but you will bounce back stronger. I'm praying for you. Peace

Wife here! Just found your channel and love it! Already subscribed! It’s so disheartening to read the comments! I will admit that a few years ago, I was not a good wife! It wasn’t until I found Lori Alexander and being in an argument with my husband that I saw how I was in the wrong. I remember putting myself in my husbands shoes and I couldn’t stand myself! Heck, I even said that if I was my husband, I would leave me! lol I apologize and started changing! I still have a lot of work to do but man, I love my husband and I realize that 95% of the time lol I’m the problem! lol my husband is a gem and I’m so blessed to have him! I hope to gain more knowledge and perspective from your videos! By the grace of God! And in Taylor Swifts words “It’s me, hi, I’m the problem, it’s me” .

How to tell a husband is unhappy: 1.) He’s married. 2.) He’s breathing. In all seriousness, marriage is useless to men and there is no good reason to do it. If you have sons, be honest with them about it. There’s no reason for these shenanigans to continue .

This is just because society has let women get away with any and all bad behaviors. A wife is supposed to be supportive, helpful, kind, and a place of refuge for a man. In reality, a modern wife is a self absorbed know it all who can do no wrong. Everyone around her is supposed to genuflect on just how amazing she is...and deep down she knows she is a fraud. That is why she is unhappy. Someone else appears to be better and thus she feels her life should be better. You end up taking it out on your spouse the most, then your children next. Women have this dismissive attitude towards everyone else. Men are unhappy? Better man up! That isn't her responsibility! Men are lonely? HA HA, LOSERS!!! Oh he just is upset that I'm not barefoot and pregnant making him a sandwich! Children are depressed and confused? Children are failing in education? Well it can't be because I'm focused on me all the time! I do so much already! My husband doesn't do nearly as much. All he has to do is work 60 hours a week at a job. I don't feel appreciated. I'm done with this marriage....[3 years later] Why won't men date me!!! My ex has already moved on. He didn't work that hard when we were married. Now my kids want to live with him. Let me post another TikTok about how unfair everything is.

I'm stunned, this woman knows my life. In my 60's and second marriage of 2 yrs and I want out. She has changed and worn me out. I want peace and happiness; she wants to fight about everything, gunning for a fight. I call it the daily fight, sometimes the daily double or trifactor. I can only bite my tong so long. I walk on eggs. This woman was so helpful. I sent this video to my wife, I'm expecting a fight tomorrow.

She want's you to step up and put her in her place. Women (deep inside themselves) want to be (benevolently) ruled over. You must stop submitting to her and make her submit to you. Stop doing things that she wants and start doing things that you want and invite her to join you. If she does not want to join you, go it alone. Get out of her frame and make her get into yours. It is the only way you both can be happy.

I can relate to that. Remarried and I find myself regretting it. It has been less than two years but she can’t take any direction, argues about everything, complains about everything but never likes any solution, let’s the smallest stuff upset her, snaps, etc. Every guy just wants peace and doesn’t want their time wasted being told they’re always wrong or constantly bitched at cause they fold towels a different way than what she does. And good luck sending this video. I’m sure that fell on deaf ears.

Stop trying to get in your wife's frame. Women only respect men that can (benevolently) rule over them. Stop trying to please your wife and start giving her opportunities to submit to and please you. Don't go where she wants to go and do what she wants to do. Make plans to do what you want to do and give her the opportunity to join your. If she declines, go alone and tell her how much fun you have when you get back. The only way you both can be happy is if you pull her into your frame and get her to submit to you.

When things in marriage start to go bad, too many men will start doing things to try and make their wives happy. It does not help but often makes things worse. Your wife wants a leader that she can respect. You have to stop submitting to her and create opportunities for her to submit to you. Stop doing what she wants and start doing the tings that you want and invite her to join you. If she refuses, leave her at home. Put small demands on her to serve you. If she complies, reward her is affection, if she does not, no affection. This is the only way it will work. You have to earn her respect and a women will not respect a man who submits (SIMPS) to her. Only reward good behavior.

To the wives complaining about their husbands... if you don't encourage him, empower him, recharge his batteries, reward good behavior, why expect to see his best? If you have that healthy, empowering relationship, and you've encouraged and rewarded behaviors you like... is it possible you or he will fall off at some point and need to get back on track? Yes. But you should be able to say, "I love you, I miss X-Y-Z that you used to do. Is there anything I'm doing that stopped you from doing those things?" Usually the guy will come around and try to pick it up. Nagging, criticism and withholding get him to quit on you. If you split up, he'll do what you want for someone else.

My wife loves cats. We live in a four bedroom home with three bedrooms. She knows of many cats that are euthanized at the local shelter. It seems to me that many people would adopt cats if they had somewhere to take them if they went out of town. I suggested that maybe she could help out some by boarding other cats from time to time. She got huffy about it. I don’t care if she likes the idea or not, but her reaction has the direct result of me not wanting to talk to her very much. She is forcing us by her behavior to both be alone. In Carly Simon’s words “I haven’t got time for the pain”

She a bigot. She doesn't even want to acknowledge the existence of foreign women from cultures where we adore men. The valley I live in has all kinds of foreign women on nice properties. Whenever we see each other, each of us gives that knowing smile,or a happy nod. The American women like to rage about how evil the men are for "exploiting" us. How they couldn't measure up to obese, insufferable women with short orange hair and metal in their noses. So they had to resort to younger, slim girls with long natural hair, no tattoos, no makeup, and who work their fannies off for their families... When they talk about us, one minute we are poor, pitiable half-human creatures that don't know any better, and the next moment we are dirty prostitutes.
