    Thank you for normalizing being with your partner 24/7. Itโ€™s so common to hear โ€œoh I donโ€™t care if he/she goes out I need a break sometimesโ€ and here I am looking crazy for wanting to do everything with my partner

    I just deep cleaned my whole kitchen while listening to this & time went by SO FAST. I was completely engaged in the conversation. I found myself replying as if I were an active participant, laughing at your jokes & gasping at the audacity written in the letter sent to you by the listener. Thank you for doing this. I get so much from your content. Not only am I learning so much about a healthy dynamic in relationships, but I'm also decompressing from work & I'm being productive because I'm cleaning things I've been putting off for a while. To put the cherry on top, I use the last 5 minutes of your podcast to stretch & do some light breathing exercises. You are both excellent. Please keep the podcasts coming!

    Came from tik tok and watch #1 and #2 podcasts all in one day. My wife and i are a year and a half passed the day she found out i cheated, i thank god and her every single day for her staying, we had to have some seriously deep and painful conversations and we still continue those deep conversations and im very primal and i have went back to chasing her and spending my energy on her and us. Listening to you two talk and recieving your message really shows that my wife and i are on the right path and gives me some other things to soul search on and work on myself while recieving her critiques and working on them. There are not enough words that i know that can express my gratitude for what you two have been doing and are doing. Will be a watcher of every single video that yall come out with. And i will be implementing some of your ideas and thoughts into the marriage to make sure we keep an open and honest dialog, thank you again

      Can I please ask. My partner cheated with an ex and we are trying to work it out. I have borderline personality disorder and it's triggered so much for me. How did you and your wife proceed after the cheating?

    • @dannyhall2836
      @dannyhall2836 ๋…„ ์ „ +11

      @Millie Connelly well from my side, i deleted every single social media. I sent her a screenshot everytime i got to work showing her i was there. Took the lock off my phone she has access to it snytime. And we talked and talked and talked. We basically started over and started dating each other, asking all the same stuff we did when we first started talking and seeing how the answers differed from now till then since we had been together so many years and so much had changed. Its 100% not easy as the cheater i had to tell her why i did it, and then when the why came out she needed to do some self examination as well. We personally do one night a week where we sit on the couch or lay in bed and cuddle and talk and we have no sexual contact just intimacy. And its been awhile she still has things that trigger her and i just do what i can to reassure her i am still on the straight and narrow and doing what a good honest loving husband should be doing. I wish you absolutely nothing but the best and truly hope if he is the one you two work it out and start on the path to recovery

    I'm currently working on my Masters in counseling and just had to create a social change portfolio for class based on a problem in my community. I picked my whole state. I live in Wyoming and we are ranked 5th for number of suicide in the state with men being the highest. I was shocked to find that in the nation per 100,000 people 22.9 were male while in Wyoming it was 53.9 and Wyoming does not have a large population. Hearing you both advocate for men being open about sharing their feelings is amazing to hear and it is appreciated.

    I love how you touched on "work spouses" I have a few co-workers who have that type of relationships at work. They see nothing wrong with it or how it could be negatively impacting their relationship with their spouse. Sometimes people have issues without even realizing what the root of the issue is. Maybe you mentioning it will make someone take notice and do better!

    i relate so much with chris saying he can't speak when he's emotional (crying) because he'll go full-on ugly cry. i don't know what it is or what has caused this in me, but i avoid crying so much because my brain literally shuts off as soon as i start crying. i go to therapy, and i've cried in therapy. my therapist knows that when i start crying, she has to hand me a piece of paper and a pencil because i have thoughts and feelings but i cannot speak them out loud for whatever reason. i also do not believe crying is weak, it's a normal expression of emotion (and not just sadness: people cry from frustration and happiness too). but my body won't let me continue talking if the tears start flowing
    i also relate to both sides of the protection topic, because i feel it is my duty to protect my girlfriend, but i also like the feeling of being protected as well. of course i can stand up for myself, but shes a serious badass and i know she would protect me too, and that makes me feel safe and strong just as much as i want her to feel. when we walk on the sidewalk next to a street, busy or not, i make it a point that i walk closest to the road so there's a higher chance that she would not get as seriously hurt if a car lost control and drove onto the sidewalk. i also make it a point to hold her hand and keep her close in public so she knows if anything happens, ill know and be right there to keep her safe. however, she does other things that make me feel protected in times where my anxiety is going crazy as well. my personal belief in my relationship is that we are equally protective, and i personally wouldn't want to be the main protector or have her be the main protector, but i love the idea of protection, being on the receiving and giving end

    I am new to your podcast and I am loving it. My husband and have a traditional marriage and are going on 18yrs of marriage. Our marriage has been through it and I will say that it was rough and D papers were filed. We were both unhappy when I let others influence me and allowed it to make me feel wrong for the traditional aspects of our marriage. Now that I have gone back to the basics and gave him back the respect and trust in leading our family we have been happier than ever. I needed to go back to me being the wife I wanted and all it fell back into place. I did it without expecting him to do anything first. I just allowed myself to be who I wanted to be for him even if it meant he wouldn't reciprocate. When I submitted to my role as his wife..... HE STEPPED INTO THE ROLE OF THE HUSBAND I CRAVED...again! Watching you two and seeing the mutual love, respect and honesty is the best. Love that I found you two.

    I LOVE YALL!! I came home on my lunch break listening to this episode, cleaned the house while my husband went to immunotherapy treatment. Him and I have five kids together we are 35 years old and very busy to say the least. We found ourselves lacking in some ways and are looking for ways to work on each other and work on ourselves to be better for each other! I have followed you guys on TikTok for a while and now that I found you on KRplus, our 40+ hour drive coming up for spring break and the Vegas date is going to be a great time to listen, talk and absorb information! Thanks you both are amazing. I find myself nodding and answering out loud when you guys are discussing, I'm happy to see that majority of things you do for your wife my husband as well does for me. I am definitely lacking in giving up control, not being bossy.

    I have been watching your podcasts for about two weeks now, and have already shifted my perspective on how I handle my marriage. My husband and I have been together for 5 years, and in that time he has "done the work" internally to grow into a man I admire daily. Now I feel like it is my turn to do the work and hold myself accountable, to be a better wife for him. You two are helping me so much. Right now I am working two jobs on top of being a mother. So it is critical that I fortify my marriage as much as possible during the time I get with my husband and family. I work in a tattoo shop, as an apprentice, and I can already see some pitfalls for relationships in this industry. Your content really feels like a godsend during this critical time in my life. Thank you so much for doing what you do, and helping people like me.

    Just got into this podcast! The idea of traditional values is something Ive wanted to bring up to my man and things I want to do with him. First episode she said something about one of the jobs she does is keeping the house nice for the whole family, but also herself. And taking care of herself for herself and for him. That hit me so hard. I got up and started cleaning since Ive been in a funk recently and my space has been a mess. (My man is moving in with me in a few months and Im in the process of getting the house ready for him.) This podcast is something I want to binge while I prep this space for our future life together. This is the man I want to marry and dedicate my life to. And Im ready to learn. Thank you guys so much for this content!

    The email with the 25yos really hit close to home! I got with my hubs at 14 and him 15. We had our 1st at 20 and him 21. We got married at 21 and 22. We now have 5, oldest is 10 and youngest is 1.5.
    It took him till literally this last year (the end of 22 to now) to really grow into the man I've seen glimpses of over the years. We've had plenty of growing pains, bumps in the road, and rough patches. We're still learning and growing but coming across your tik toks were so helpful!!! I've been a SAHM for going on 7yrs and he's always been amazing about providing financially for our family but struggled with the other parts. And we would yo-yo, weโ€™d have a fight it'd get better for a bit then fall into old ways. Over and over. I started with holding myself more accountable and he took that lead and really seen how much better things were! And has actively been making more effort himself. Being home with the kids and I (he'd go to his mom's alot), actively spending more time with me, working on his view of him needing to be more then just a financial provider, and actually planning dates and such.

    I just recently started watching your talks and have found many similarities in my current relationship as what I see between you two. There is also alot of baggage with my current partner and myself that we are both working on. Our pasts made us feel like we had to put all of our negatives that we acknowledged or were told about on the table before we even went out on a date. I believe it has made us stronger. We are still new in our relationship, but it did move faster than either of us expected. In the past year, I got divorced, moved out, moved into an apartment that he moved into with me, got preg, had a miscarriage, went on a family vacation for a week, moved out of state together to be close to my family, work together in the same store, etc... I don't think all of these changes would have allowed us to be continue to be successful in our relationship if we didn't have talks like this. I am inspired by you both and have discussed with him about implementing some of your practices in with what we already do. Thank you so very much for everything you do! You are wonderful and it is amazing to be back of your group now.

    This one made me ugly cry. I am very recently from my husband. We were married for 15 years, together 17. In 2019, he had an affair. He would throw that affair up in my face when he was mad at me. He admitted that he would cry with her talking to her about my and his relationship. The comment about your crying with each other hurt my heart in a way I hadn't expected. In none of the time we were together would he allow himself to be that vulnerable in front of me. We even had a discussion about this a few years into our relationship. I love that you guys have started 2 Be Better! I am learning a lot about myself. It isn't easy but I very much need you guys to continue! Thank you both from every part of me!

    One thing I really love about this is your shout out to the less physically strong protector. As a man you don't have to be able to kick someone's ass to protect your partner or family. I feel more secure around someone with a good sense of how to behave in stressful situations, than I ever could with someone who believes their muscles can and will fix everything.

    Being told that I am not in entitled to half of what we grew together while married because I didnโ€™t make as much as him after being together for almost 18 years was horrible. I always felt like he felt that way about me throughout the relationship and marriage but hoped that it wasnโ€™t true. Hearing that another women had to deal with that makes my heart hurt. Praying that she is happy and thriving and know that she is worth more than she can imagine.

    1:16:54 itโ€™s probably pretty rare to find someone with traditional values at mine and my boyfriends age Iโ€™m 25, and Heโ€™s 22. But I am thinking I hit the jackpot to find someone around my age that Works his butt off at a blue collar job, and had traditional Values. He makes me feel very safe, heโ€™s very emotionally mature. We arenโ€™t married yet, nor do we live together yet. But I would like to say that once we do and once we are. We are going to have a very healthy traditional Marriage. ๐Ÿฅฐ I love listening so far and Iโ€™m only two episodes in, but Iโ€™m hoping that from listening I will learn more for when we are ready to take those steps.

    My boyfriend of 6+ years and I just had the conversation about the bar/nightclub situation recently. I went out to catch up with a gal pal I hadn't seen in a few months. What was meant to be an hour or two tops, turned into 3.5 hours (only one alcoholic beverage and then water). But my boyfriend worried. He knew I didn't do anything while I was out, but he didn't like the environment that I was in. He expressed concern about me being in that environment and basically feels the same way that the two of you do. I had never thought about it in that light, but as soon as he did, I was like yeah, I get it!! And the lightbulb just went off

    In regards to getting over trauma and holding yourself accountable. Something that I heard (on TikTok) that really clicked for me and allowed me to understand being accountable for your actions and your triggers due to trauma is thinking of trauma as a physical wound; a cut. You did not ask to be cut open by another person, it is not "fair" that that happened to you. However, now that it has happened and you are bleeding it is your responsibility to take care of that cut and not let yourself bleed on other people. Some cuts are really bad and require stitches (aka therapy) some cuts can be taken care of with a little first aid at home. It does not matter the severity of the cut, it is your responsibility to do what you have to do to stop that cut from bleeding so that you do not bleed on other people. Especially a new partner who has never cut you. This is still something I struggle with, but if you are someone being held up on "well how else besides accountability?" Accountability really just means taking ownership of your responsibility to heal yourself after a trauma. In my opinion.

    So i just want you guys to know (which I am sure you hear all the time) when I am listening to you I feel like I am in a room with friends. My husband (love him to death high school sweethearts) doesn't see things the way you (or I) do. At least not so much anymore. He was raised in a family that the wife was the home maker and the husband did the working. But sadly his dad was one that did it low with no room for growth so they were always put out or not well set. He tired to do the "you should be at home not working" thing with me but I was raised to be strong and no one is going to take care of you if you can't do it yourself. So I worked and I still do. I am working 2 jobs currently. But I see things the way you do. I agree with everything you guys talk about. I have tried to get him to watch and I think that he take offence that I want him to watch. I am trying to learn how 2 Be Better by watching and listening. But I don't feel he cares. We have some issues that I wish not to blast all over the net but I just wish that he would try more like he use to. But if I try to talk to him at all about it some how I am attacking him and he starts a fight then tries to turn the blame on me. Tells me I complain all the time even though I am just trying to tell him how I feel.... I need to stop. I guess maybe I should just email you.... LOL
