I agreed with everything you said EXCEPT counseling with couples! That is the WORST possible way for these women to get strong because they are where they are because they are fearful of rejection, scorn, physical abuse, etc. There will come a time they can counsel as a couple but only after her spouse has come to an understanding that he is an abuser. Otherwise, all information becomes another tool for him to use against her the moment they walk out. Counseling SEPARATELY is essential, though. Thank you for tackling this huge problem that nobody seems to want to talk about!
Only one way: do not tolerate any abuse at all. When you do not tolerate, the guys will feel it and they will not try to date with you.
what is this? "women work too hard. so. women, here's a bunch of extra work to do. it's YOUR responsibility to stop being abused."
OH WOW!!!! I loved this video, I have watched a lot of relationship videos on you tube, But the information you talked about, I am going to try! I belive in my heart it will totally work for me…. Thank You I am Set Free. BIG SMILE : o D}}}}}
@GnaReffotsirk absolutely agree with this – I spent 28 years trying to build a relationship with a woman who 13 years into the marriage told me I was right to think she saw me as nothing more than a sperm donor (we had 4 kids). I left shortly after but continued to support them while she played constant mind-games with me. When my youngest hit adulthood I realised they'd all be happier without me around so I wrote them a letter and said goodbye. It was the right thing to do.
Trying to fix things with your partner that doesn't want to change is a pitfall.
To keep on hoping or trying he/she will change, giving more effort to fixing things as suggested is just one of the things mentioned in the first seconds of this video.
You'll know if a person wants to get involved in your relationship, because he/she gets involved without being told to. If not, then maybe that person just wants the relationship to end.
So give that to them.
@GrenadeChick99 – Then it is decision time for you. Make yourself healthy, with or without him.
Thank you doc….
And if he refuses to go to counseling? If he threatens and uses intimidation and name calling when angry or feels forced to talk about subjects he dislikes?
thank you Dr, hawkins, this came at a crucial time for me. . . I have friends who don't understand, those who insist I return to him and take the responsibility I have for 30 years of loving him and fixing things for his comfort without being loved in return . . . .
