I am guilt of this. I’ll be working on this. This is my anger and my long-term frustration talking. I am having a great deal of trouble adjusting to my husbands constants demands on me. He has constant health issues and expects me to do EVERYTHING in the home and everything he wants or needs. My therapist calls this “learned helplessness.” He is this with his first wife (she told me), then me and now the ladies at work.. I also have my health issues and I am working full time to heal. He is capable of making his own doctor’s appointments, etc. I have spent the last 27 years taking care of him and I need time and energy at this point to take care of my own physical and mental health needs.
Sorry you are married to such a needy and selfish person. That would be hard to deal with… Props to you….for staying strong and in there.
My wife getting out of limerance with one person and now she is going to another one… I am tired of trying to be the right person for her… enough is enough…
Don’t look at it as you’re not the right one. Either are the others she is going in and out of limerence. She is searching for something she doesn’t have or might not even know.
Focus on your P.I.E.S. Be the constant in her life. It’s very much a selfless approach of Love, Grace, Mercy and Forgiveness. Attributes of Christ the best example of a Husband to a Bride (us) that ignores Him.
Take a season of your life and stay committed and focus on you being the best bride to Jesus and learn what it takes to be the best husband to your bride.
look up love addiction. usually a symptom of something else. Kimberly has a podcast on that too
Find out who they are connecting with……..always someone else
I was just having this conversation with my husband yesterday. Now I can send this to him so that we can understand each other’s experiences better. We’ve both made mistakes with this.
Thanks, this is insightful. We are both guilty of this, one way more than the other. I don’t dare share much here. She is on her 3rd affair, 2nd time with the same guy. First was just a fling. I wish we could afford your workshop, but four school age boys and Bidens economy make have made both options impossible at this point. At one point this would have been just inside reach. She’s willing and only part of our reconciliation attempts were with wile while the others we have don’t wrong in more than a few ways. What’s worse is we’re less than an hour from Spring Hill. If she finds this video that would be good. But she reads the comment section pretty avidly more often than not. I’m trying my best with your videos and maybe I’m doing ok ish. I’ve always been a self reflected/improver while she is more stead fast and bull headed. IDK if we can fix it again. At least this go around I am more collected thanks to your help on YT. I was more of a mess without them. It’s been 15 years of ups and downs improvement and breakdowns and giving up isn’t in my nature. If only I had of found you guys sooner. At least this time if it fails, I can leave knowing I will be better off than not having applied your advice.
I have been going through this for a few years now
