WHAT MEN WISH WOMEN KNEW | South African YouTube Couple

So often we feel misunderstood by the opposite sex. The differences between men and women and how we choose to navigate through life is an age-old battle.
Yet here we are, needing to find a middle ground in order to co-exist. Why, because as much as it’s sometimes a pain to live with each other, we have no desire to live without each other.
To continue the concession, we discuss, “What MEN wish WOMEN knew...” from the Makhs point of view.

The maturity is out of this world. I'm learning a lot. 😭😭😭

[@LM-he7eb]

I'm definitely afraid of opening up to men. Especially about family dynamics. Men diminish a lot of things we complain about & use it against you in future

[@madupe21]

Don't good idea... Advise: ask yourself when is he going to do that.. Which I also think of often doing?

Pheto is so beautiful.Yoh I am forever in awe of her.

[@Nadiamatlala]

I love the honesty and authenticity you guys display. And the vulnerability you guys are showing and how you are both able to receive each other’s feedback without getting angry but willing to process and acknowledge. Thank you for the wonderful content and sharing your love with us, all facets of it ❤️❤️❤️

[@TheMakhs]

Thank you so much dear friend❤️❤️. It took us a lot of learning to arrive at this point. We’ve had to have some really tough conversations along the way and get to a point where we truly see each other’s hearts. We appreciate your kind words of affirmation and encouragement❤️❤️🤗🤗

[@TheMakhs]

Thank you so much Sanele! We appreciate you so much❤️❤️

[@kiaashlii6268]

One thing I’ve learnt is that sometimes in relationships we have to try and be apart of things our partners enjoy doing (find fun) even if it isn’t something we enjoy most. 🤷🏾‍♀️

[@bernicemaina3004]

Learnt alot, love it here! 😍💯 1) Respect 2) Emotional Intimacy 3) Security 4) To have fun 5) They want/need space

Hi Guys. I've just recently discovered your channel, and I love, love, love you guys! My husband and I have been married for 21years, and we are very passionate about Marriage done God's way, and you guys aredoing exactly that! There is so much to learn from your videos, and I think this one specifically, I will listen to it again, take notes and then discuss with hubby! Keep up the amazing work that you are doing! You are changing lives!!!

[@noluthandomakhoba9853]

I'm not even married yet but I was triggered for the most part. Like Peto said, I'll take it like a CHAMP and work on myself :). You guys are just amazing!

[@joynkuna6604]

If only you guys knew how much we(me and my boyfriend) learn from you.. like we literally have conversations about everything you talk about and this is a awosome way to preparation for us as we planning to get married next year.. Thank you so much

[@TheMakhs]

Thank you so much for your feedback. We are so humbled by it.🤗🤗We are so encouraged to hear that the conversations are being carried forward❤️❤️

[@alemalem2395]

@@TheMakhs I am watching u guys and i think as a wife u need to understand your husband listen to him put his needs to have fun with you before your fears. I love that he want to have fun with you.

[@alemalem2395]

I am a widow and there were fun things my husband wanted us to do and i would say no .I regret it now we cannot go back so try to meet him half way u might be surprised.

[@alemalem2395]

I say this in love for you both .

[@MannaMeals]

Loved how you both didn’t sugarcoat marriage or your relationship struggles. Can you do a specific video on how God confirmed each other as your Godly spouse. And how He continued to confirm it while you were dating. Thank you.

[@TheMakhs]

Hi Erica! Thank you so much🤗🤗❤️❤️. We talk about the “confirmation” in the “How We Met” installment😀

[@ritobaloyi3735]

The way he emphasized on having fun 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Did you see that??🤣🤣🤣

[@adelheidkatjiru9402]

The honesty and Transparency from your husband, thank you for bringing us in

[@ntefengmoloisane5418]

I can relate to Phetola, If you ask me ,“what do you do for fun?” I won’t know what to say, but I am completely happy and having fun 🤣

[@TheMakhs]

Happy and content right? 🤣🤣Fun is very relative❤️

Lerato gave a great example of when someone is being "unnecessary". That sort of thing gets to anyone, irrespective of gender. Those people tend to come across as bo tsibinki and ba bora blind bao. LOL. I stumbled upon your channel like literally 2 hours ago and I have been binge watching your videos. 🙈🙈🙈😂😂😂😂Thanks for sharing your story. The interview with the rents was such nourishing soulfood. May the good Lord continue to strengthen you in your individual capacities as well as a couple. 🌺🌺🌺

YES!!! Perspective is the goal. Love this comment. Thank you for sharing 🙏🏾

[@phiwo8998]

So Authentic and raw ! No content like this elsewhere! Love watching these with my partner !

[@deepdiver849]

I barely watch anything as long as an hour...but this was very genuine and refreshing. For me its important that a man just informs me he needs space...

[@denzeleiseb6364]

I have never seen such a genuine conversation between couples. Thanks for the Channel.

[@kiaashlii6268]

You realize even though Loreta stated initially that he was okay with partners having friends of the same sex now he is saying her not actually having male friends like that gives him that sense of security lol 😂 so once again it proves that many times we say we are ok with things until it is happening to us. 🤥🤷🏾‍♀️ y’all are the best!

[@wandilekwanda541]

What a heated conversation today😅. @Lerato we feel well represented. Loved it once again. ❤

[@TheMakhs]

Yoooo! The heat was too much🤣🤣. Lerato did well! We will give him that👏🏾👏🏾. And all the women are taking notes❤️

[@samanthab4524]

I just met you guys, I love you already, you just "make sense" and im gonna binge watch all ur vids ♥

[@keh-dalia809]

Wow, the candid speaking has actually helped me a lot to understand more!!! I think my problem is, is that I have gained a lot of wisdom early on in life and I end up giving great advice to guys who don't want to feel like they're being told what to do. Then I just think they are immature and too egotistical to see the value of growing and learning to better their own life. But this giving advice triggers guys and makes them feel insecure and not the strong superhero they want a woman to see them as. But honestly the insecurity and immaturity is already there underneath if they are triggered by something that can help them grow and learn. A lot of people don't like to grow and learn from others, but I love it, and you can only love growing and learning if you put your ego aside and open your mind to the possibility of what you can grow into. This will never change, and all the wisdom I gained through an intense life will not be denied either, and I cannot go back. But I see the issue, and this helped me understand again that I need a mature man who also has some fruits of wisdom too! Being that I'm still pretty young in a dumbed down American fast food culture, meeting the right guy is going to take some serious miracles of God!

[@simphiwetshemese7814]

I wish they can communicate that they need space instead of withdrawing 😤

[@TheMakhs]

Agreed! Hopefully the more conversation we have around these issues, we can create a safe space for men to be open about their fears and challenges.❤️❤️🙏🏾

[@andilengubane5178]

It’s also a skill that I had to learn to read him and give him space without him asking for it, just be consistent with affirmations instead of interrogation

[@andilengubane5178]

Another very important thing it’s very wise to be a peaceful woman, Make it a cautious decision! Let loose be peaceful, feminine and let him be!
