As a personal trainer, I beg you all - don't get involved with your personal trainers!!! I've seen so much shenanigans in the gym. The way they make you feel is the way they make all clients feel. The slimy ones just prey on the vulnerable ones who fall for it. Please dont ruin your marriage for foolishness.

I hate hearing these stories of failing marriages. My wife and I have our problems, but I would never leave her. She gave me our children and helped me build the life we have with both of us dealing with depression and health issues through the years. I think of her every day, and I am absolutely the luckiest man on earth to be with her, living the life that we live.

@@GreenManXYmy ex husband looked me in the eyes with zero problem he also did it I front of my young step son. Zero regard for my health or my unborn child. When my sweat little step son told me with zero idea of what he was saying my ex husband told my step son to tell me he was making up a story and that he was lying. I looked that sweat little boy in the eyes while he cried his heart out that I believed him 💯 and that I knew he was being honest. My ex kept the lie up for a couple more hours that evening till I told him I absolutely didn’t believe him and to tell the truth. Finally he admitted to it my soul literally fell to the floor I lost a huge piece of myself that moment and continued to lose myself for years to come. I was holding my brand new baby I felt faint but held on tight and wouldn’t let go. My life went on to be hell for years after. I look back and see all the signs now. And it’s true what they say once a cheater always a cheater that goes both ways for men or women. Cheating and lying and hiding it and swearing on people’s lives was all a sham. I believe his shame was then taken out on me physically because soon after the abuse started. I didn’t have the tools to understand what I was about to enter into. Long story short people like him look themselves in the mirror by never being honest with themselves. He has never taken responsibility.

The open relationship one makes me think that a lot of people today are bored and also self-absorbed. They say things like “I need attention,” and then use that as justification to step out on your marriage. Love is putting someone else’s needs before your own and serving your partner. Everything now is me/I/myself, and that attitude does not facilitate a good marriage.

It's really not that way they choose to live that way because they really do like it and it makes them both happy.. I know several married couples married for 30 years that way! Typically in this kind of relationship if your partner has found a new partner that makes you happy and vice versa... Not for me but like I said I have a lot of experience in it I actually run a lifestyle group!

@@davidjonburke2729Nope, 100% wrong. They are selfish, self centered, and have neglected their spouse, family, extended family and most important their children..if they have children. It's a crime against children. It's hard enough to have time for each other in a marriage, with family. Where are the children? Where are the grandparents? My husband and I spent mega hours with work, raising children, volunteering, fitting in extended family events. We barely had time for each other. Birth, death, taxes of life and not necessarily in that order. People who think with their genitals and instant gratification are selfish, irresponsible people to their family and society. Don't for a minute say it " worked" for them as if there is no damage.

We also tried a marriage counselor. Aside from being later & later for each appointment, I felt like she was refusing to help. When we opened with his cheating with a stripper, she looked at him, he looked at her & they laughed....while I sat crying. She knew he interacted with this hooker/stripper admitting he started by motor boating her naked body. The appointments that followed, she wore lower cut blouses each time showing more cleavage. I asked her about workbooks or exercises to help us. She insisted we weren't ready for that. Because of his lies over 32 yrs, I asked her if we could do a .polygraph test. She refused that as well. I left & never went back. Just because they hang out a shingle, doesn't mean they're qualified to help.

What gets me is that monogamous couples thing open marriage will save it. Truth is, open marriages take work. You have to have the boundaries and the rules already in order before you do it. You talk to your primary partner before, during, and after, always! Primary partner comes before the secondary. Too many people don't talk to their partner, they don't express their feelings, Primary ends up feeling neglected and the secondary is put on a pedestal.

P*rn addiction is not a character flaw. It is an illness that has become worse for a lot of people because of the internet. A lot of times addictions stem from deep seated childhood trauma and a struggle to connect. P*rn addiction is no different than food addiction or drug addiction. That being said, if you have no trust, love can't hold its footing. She has to decide what work is worth doing if she decides to stay or go. And I agree, telling too many people causes more problems. Better to speak with a therapist and maybe one really good friend she knows will just listen and not force their opinions.

Thank you, Dr. Delony. I listened to your “The Most Unforgettable Marriage Calls I’ve Ever Taken Greatest Hits Vol. Two” for the first time this morning. The call with Rebecca really hit home. But what struck me, and frankly made me burst into tears, was you telling her the parts that were real in her marriage. Because I truly believed that our entire relationship, and marriage, was a lie. We were together for almost 25 years. He treated me like I was a princess for the first 20-ish years. I felt the shift, and tried to talk to him, but he denied that anything was going on. I put on my detective hat, and pretty much found out everything. We’re divorced; initially I wanted to work things out, but I discovered another piece of the puzzle, and I couldn’t go on after that. Thank you, again. I guess hearing an intelligent, caring human being (outside of my circle of family and friends) say “that part was real” is something that I needed to hear.

Very good point. I always think when I hear stories like that well you came back to your husband because it didn’t work out but let’s imagine that things were going great with this new dude…would even a one thought about your husband cross your mind? The answer is no! Because she would be thinking “yeah this new dude is so great! Giving me so many great emotions! That’s what I’ve been looking for!” But in reality the fairytale stopped pretty quickly and then she goes “actually my husband wasn’t that bad I actually want to work on our relationship” well it seems to me she hasn’t changed and I would expect her to do something like that again when she again needs “more new emotions”. Unfortunately no wisdom there at least I didn’t see it 🤷🏻‍♂️

I don't think coming back from this sort of betrayal is possible. If someone has proven that they are willing and able to hide the truth and lie to your face for years on end, how can any amount of time of honesty prove that they've changed? The remedy to every grievance (beside compensation for the grievance) is a change in behaviour from the offending. You forgot something? Write a reminder so you won't. That's a guarantee that it won't happen again. There is no equivalent guarantee you can give for years of lies, deciet and manipulation. I think it's why spousal betrayal is one of the worst sins, because there's no way to remedy it, it will either upend the relationship, or the agrieved party "forgives", i.e. they pay the price for the cheater's mistake.

One thing I noticed Dr.John missed with the middle story was at the beginning, the first domino that so many people knock over that starts this downward trajectory is TALKING TO OUTSIDE PEOPLE about your marriage. You can speak to someone outside your marriage but it has to be a therapist or an actual marriage coach/mentor who wants things to work out in your marriage! People constantly speak to friends, parents, siblings, and co-workers about private things in their marriage. You are allowing outside strangers, who do not care about your marriage and probably are either not married or have a toxic relationship themselves, a loud voice in your marriage. As we can see speaking to another co-worker specifically the opposite gender he offers to sleep with her to fix their problem. He doesn't care about your marriage... it sounds obvious but people don't have common sense. Now when the other people got what they wanted out of your little entanglement, they can leave happy and you're left with your spouse trying to clean up the explosion that just happened inside your marriage. Its amazing how many people allow acquaintances to destroy their marriage. People can come back from these things but it is challenging. There needs to be a course people take before they get married.

They both participated in an open marriage. While she initiated it, he seemed to be content with the idea of sleeping with other women. Honestly, they are both supremely at fault. My husband would never trade me out for open sex. Her husband didn’t love the idea but he said as long as he can have side action, he’s fine. That’s gross on both their parts. She emotionally got attached to one person, he had sexual encounters. They both defiled the marriage bed and their commitment to each other. If they are able to fix this, it will be both of them having to work on their adultery amongst many other things.

My wife had a passive aggressive mother and was asked by a psychologist if she loved her mother, liked her mother, respected her mother, the answers were no no no. She was asked after her answers, why continue with a relationship with someone who treated her so badly, the psychologist left my wife to make her own mind up to what she wanted to do. My wife became estranged from her mother and in doing so, became estranged from most of the family. She suffered depression for years due to grieving, but she is in a far better place now than she has ever been. There are times when estrangement is the answer, but there often is a great deal of pain due to grief as my wife and I know only to well.

We've been married for almost 12 years and together for 13 and I still can't stand being away from him, lol. He is a wonderful person and he is just sunshine and everyone's life. He's just a good man and I really love him. I don't see this waning anytime soon. But I am blessed to have parents that are happily married after 45 years.

As if that was not bad enough, she then finds out that he fathered a child by one of his affair partners. Divorce was their only option. Luckily, her STD was curable Thank God. The lives of their family were never the same.

It's taken 20+ years to get over the pain 100% but once in a while, I still get 'pissed' at myself for 'seeing but not-seeing' because I trusted totally. Long and short of the whole thing, I should have left immediately when the first red flag came up at the beginning of our relationship.

That's just it - it does both! From the perspective of the husband, healing comes in two ways: 1) he has another reason leave her 2) rebuild their marriage in truth when he is ready. I like the way John put, both ways are going to be incredibly difficult. She no longer has an out and must live with her choices. If she loves her man the way she claims to, she'll tell the truth.

I identified with her but in the end when you asked why she's protecting him, I realised she always knew something was not okay so she chose not to get herself in a position where she will get any evidence to confirm her gut feeling...what you don't know will still come out, it's better to confront issues

I love listening to you! My life has been a series of trauma an abuse. My last relationship was ten years past, with a horrible narcissist, cruel abusive man. Since then I have been alone, he took it all from me..then I got cancer, my health just never bounced back. So I still feel like I can’t trust,now I don’t know joy. I have no idea, what makes me feel alive, I really don’t care…no-one cares I am 64 disabled, an have nothing to offer, nothing to bring to the table.

Everybody moves so fast :) Oh, you might want to look up an, (Sigma INFJ-T) that's me, mostly... along with the complex. Personally, it helped greatly to take the online Myers Personality Test, then other's to verify results were as accurate as, my answers true. Once the therapist I mentioned above was in the knowledge mix, well... that somehow helped my strength I was determined to retrieve, after making a very bad error only hidesight could show me. It took a huge toll on my every level. I've had MS for most of my life, and able to control it with life style mostly, until what I/You/other's find themselves in, abusive relationship of one, or more if we start taking on mirroring traits. Well, I'm a door slammer! My health incurred too much stress, and when there is enough pressure on something, the weakest part oozes out. So, now... losing my sight more and more, along with hands and feet that once thrived. It gets scary for sure... you too. I hope you get answers so you will be able to make the best choices for you probable. I hope you stay out of the ER's. Those ICU's have a lot of people there with Peek-a-boo problems! 🤭 Warning: Love silly jokes. I was not expecting a new friend. Welcome. I really think you are going to benefit from the complex therapy, or at least it is my hope you will, too.

is normal synonymous with natural? or common?

Statistically there is a normal version of everything. Normal is in reference to a normal distribution which states which percentage of people fall into a certain place on a spectrum. Therefore there are normal serial killers, normal pedophiles, and normal cannibals. They just represent the most common version of the group they are a part of, no matter how immoral or reprehensible that group may be. Notice how John says that he is calling it normal porn addiction because of the industry that he works. He has spoken with so many people with porn addiction, he can visualize the distribution of cases and can see that the case presented was not common amongst people with porn addiction and is therefore a statistical outlier and not normal.

Right? That was just invalidating towards people who have gone through the trauma of finding out that their spouse is addicted to pron and/or entertaining chat room infidelity. This is such a man's response to something like that. Basically, "oh yeah, we've all been there" without addressing the trauma of having been completely betrayed. Just because it's ubiquitous doesn't mean it's not incredibly traumatic for the spouses who have to deal with it. The posting of pictures is just one branch of a huge betrayal.

The first caller said she doesnt know how to move forward. Everybody they know believes her husband is a wonderful guy. She hasn't found anyone to talk to, she feels isolated. Divorce does isolate you. I remember hearing "when you get a divorce, you find out who your friends are." Depending on how attractive you are, your married girlfriends might view the newly single you as a threat to their own marriages. Or their husbands think you will give their own wives the idea of leaving.

When John suggested to the first caller that she call in two of her close friends to share what's going on, I think it's important to realize that most of these women, such as the caller, do not have two good friends to rely on to share this with. It's not that they're not good people or worthy of friendships, it's just that women in these positions, who choose these awful partners, usually neglect to nurture or fail to build friendships because their marriages are filled with such underlying anxiety, they spend their time (or in this case, years) "marriage policing" their husbands, which sucks up all of their energy. You can't neglect friendships then wake up one morning and expect friends to suddenly be around.

Call 1 person needs to be careful. Very careful. There's a case where several husbands were posting pictures of their wives, drugging them, and "sharing" them while their wives were asleep. The wives had no idea what was happening while they were asleep. They were posting things like she said her husband was on forums. She needs to get legal protection from him. She needs to tell everyone so they can help protect her.

I"m not convinced that full disclosure about an affair is always the way to go. Sometimes the partner just can't get past the betrayal, even if the marriage is fundamentally a strong one and they both want to save it. Even if they stay together, the wound remains open.
