Transcript
- 0:05Hi everybody, and welcome to the dr.
- 0:07Psych mom show, today, I'm going to be talking about why I should
- 0:11marry a woman that adores you. And what this means and why so
- 0:15many men don't do it and oh, just a lot of stuff before that.
- 0:22Please do subscribe. The most recent one was when you
- 0:24get married when you're young and dumb and the next one will
- 0:27be whatever one tomorrow's is. So I'm gonna make a game-time
- 0:31decision about that. And I mean, there's 85 episodes
- 0:36is for five ninety-nine a month. You really cannot get more
- 0:40quality content than that anywhere.
- 0:41Or so, I hear from my rabid fan base.
- 0:45So what do I mean by a woman that adores?
- 0:47You, like, literally, like, some guys are like, go like that
- 0:52seems impossible, you know, because that's never happened to
- 0:55me but and maybe that's just something that happens to women.
- 0:59Like a lot of real cynical guys think that they think that men
- 1:01are just supposed to be the Workhorse of the relationship.
- 1:04Woman is the one who gets put on a pedestal that is not true.
- 1:07If you think about life like that, it's just cuz like you had
- 1:11a fucked-up childhood. I mean, like for real that's the
- 1:14only reason a person thinks they don't deserve to be adored is
- 1:17because they didn't see any adoration in their childhood
- 1:20from parents to one another. And really from parents to the
- 1:24child if nobody delighted in your existence and you can't
- 1:27imagine what it would be like to be with somebody that does, you
- 1:30know and or if you didn't see your father, get Alighted in by
- 1:35your mother, then even if your mother delighted and you as I
- 1:38discussed in a prior podcast, you think that that was because,
- 1:41maybe you're like a good boy and you're funny and you're clever
- 1:44and you're smart, but it would have nothing to do with your
- 1:46physicality, which is the most important way that a man is
- 1:50adored because they have physical touch Love Languages,
- 1:53right? So it really it's a referendum
- 1:58on your parents marriage, if you don't think that you deserve to
- 2:01be adored and they were trying the best they could nobody's I
- 2:04mean I'm for shit but you know, I mean you just got to really
- 2:07look at yourself, critically, you know, not critically in a
- 2:10bad sense critically like critical thinking.
- 2:13So what does it look like for a man to be adored by a woman and
- 2:16why would many men go for women that don't adore them?
- 2:19Well, I just said, like they're not familiar with it, but also
- 2:23well first, let me say I go a little fast sometimes what does
- 2:27it look like for a man to be adored by a woman?
- 2:29Well, she really Delights in him, she gets a kick out of him.
- 2:32She thinks that he's interesting.
- 2:33She thinks that he's March. They said he's funny.
- 2:35She thinks he's good looking. She wants to be physically close
- 2:39to him. She treats him kind of like a
- 2:42grownup version of how she would treat a beloved baby.
- 2:46And that's not as weird analogy as it sounds.
- 2:48If you've been following closely along and you know, that the
- 2:52attachment relationship between intimate Partners in adulthood
- 2:55parallels, that between parent and child, the attachment bond
- 2:59between mother and child, or father, and child is the
- 3:03template for later. Hatch meant between romantic
- 3:07Partners, so whatever your wife looks like when she's with the
- 3:12baby is about as good as she can be, you know?
- 3:16And so you need a woman that like looks at you like that and
- 3:20if you're dating before a woman has a baby which nobody
- 3:23listening is. But you know when you go into
- 3:25your time machine it would be like honestly how she treats her
- 3:29most beloved friend, family member pet.
- 3:32I mean fucking anything whatever.
- 3:34The Capex is of her love. It needs to be something that
- 3:38you want to be treated like and that resonates with you, you
- 3:42know. And so if you are dating, if
- 3:45you're on the dating market and like a woman treats, you pretty
- 3:49much you know as good as she treats her friends but you know
- 3:53what? She's kind of cold and general
- 3:55well then why the hell would you marry that person she can't add
- 3:57or you in the way that you want to be adored.
- 4:00So for example adoring to you may look like she Cooked your
- 4:05favorite meals and gives you a lot of kisses and cuddles,
- 4:07right? And to another guy, adored May
- 4:10mean that she calls him handsome all the time.
- 4:12And to another guy and ORD May mean that she laughs at all of
- 4:15his jokes. And says, you're really funny
- 4:18whatever it is. You can get somebody who feels
- 4:21like this about you, you really can't.
- 4:24And the reason that guys don't go for a woman like that is
- 4:27because they have low self-esteem, a bad template from
- 4:30watching their parents marriage or lack thereof.
- 4:33And they feel like they They could never get a woman who's
- 4:36appealing to them, a sexy had smart, whatever woman type of
- 4:40woman, they like who actually feels that way about them.
- 4:43So all the women that would adore them, they say, oh she,
- 4:48you know, maybe yeah, she's really into me.
- 4:50But you know what? She's really not that great.
- 4:52I'll tell you, plenty of men and later life go back and pine for
- 4:57that woman. You know, the woman that like
- 4:59maybe wasn't the, you know, a brain surgeon.
- 5:03But she was, Ring, and loving and many women.
- 5:06By the way, go back and pine for the same exact thing.
- 5:09The guy who didn't maybe have as good of a job or he wasn't at
- 5:13all, or he we whatever he wasn't as worldly, but he was like so
- 5:17nice and loving and devoted and I talk a lot about when women
- 5:21think that a man when women don't get a man who takes care
- 5:26of them and how that makes them upset, and they wish that a man
- 5:29would take care of them. And I talked about how, if
- 5:32you're not vulnerable, I have a podcast out, Out this one men
- 5:35don't take care of you but it's the same thing for a man.
- 5:38When women don't adore you you know like more men that I'm with
- 5:42don't even feel loved then. Women by I'm with I mean clients
- 5:48that was came out, not I don't have multiple partners but more
- 5:53men in my office bemoan. The fact that their wife doesn't
- 5:57seem to really love them. Then women do women tend to
- 6:01think that the man loves them honestly and and do So more men
- 6:06are getting into relationships with the woman that they think
- 6:09kind of, you know, could really give a shit about them one way
- 6:12or the other, then women and why I'll tell you why it's not.
- 6:17It's not because there's more of that in the world it's because
- 6:20more men that are preoccupied attachment search out a
- 6:23psychologist. So it's easy to say it globally
- 6:26in the world is going to be 5050.
- 6:29You know of women that don't feel like the relationship is
- 6:32good or men that don't feel the relationship is good.
- 6:34But in my office, the men that are drawn to me because I talk a
- 6:37lot about sex are the men who are the ones, who are
- 6:41complaining, and who are researching stuff about their
- 6:43relationship. So, I don't see the, a
- 6:46cross-section of the population because not even a cross-section
- 6:48of the population comes to therapy any man, that will even
- 6:52come to therapy, nevermind seek out.
- 6:54A therapist is psychologically minded and is more, you know,
- 6:59invested in the relationship than the average man.
- 7:02So I get men who are more invested.
- 7:04A relationship. I don't even see the men in my
- 7:06office. Of course, who just don't even
- 7:08give a shit. And we'll, never even go to
- 7:11counseling, but there's plenty of those people out there as
- 7:14well. But if you feel like this is
- 7:18something that would never happen to you, think about how
- 7:21you are acting. If you are the sort of man who
- 7:24thinks that his life is just such that he is a Workhorse and
- 7:28has to work, work, work and pay the bills and do all this shit
- 7:32around the house and is never going to get any love.
- 7:34Of back, and that's your working model.
- 7:37That's your schema or your template, or whatever word we
- 7:40want to use, then you are probably not acting very
- 7:43lovable. You want to be adored but you're
- 7:45not acting adorable. And what you need to really
- 7:48reflect on is are you being a loving man?
- 7:53I just did this whole post about when which women get treated
- 7:57like princesses. And I made it very clear that
- 7:59the women who get treated like princesses by which I just meant
- 8:02get treated very well lovingly. I am an are those who give love.
- 8:06So if you're not getting adored by the woman that you're with,
- 8:10assuming that she ever used to adore.
- 8:12You, you know, if she never used to adore you, then we got
- 8:15different kind of trouble, but if she used to adore you and
- 8:19think that you were the cat's pajamas or whatever that's
- 8:21saying is, but now she doesn't think about are you acting like
- 8:25a man who is very loving? You got to be loving in order to
- 8:29be lovable, think about it with your children, the one that come
- 8:32over and wrap their arms around you and say, So how is your day
- 8:35daddy, or mommy, or whatever? You are?
- 8:38Then those are the ones that you feel.
- 8:41I'll deep outpouring of love for not like, you don't love the
- 8:45ones that just sit on the couch and barely acknowledge Your
- 8:47Existence. But, you know, some Love Takes
- 8:49effort and some love Is Just flows.
- 8:52Effortlessly. And the more loving the person
- 8:55acts, the more lovable, you find them.
- 8:58So if you are a man who does not feel adored and delighted in and
- 9:02loved by his wife, Think about how loving your being and try to
- 9:06up your game quite a bit because it's really hard for a woman to
- 9:10love a man, that's acting sulky and recalcitrant and - and this
- 9:17is a vicious Loop because if a man axles ways that she doesn't
- 9:21act loving and then he's even more upset and depressed and
- 9:23sulky because she doesn't act loving.
- 9:26So you got to think about it, two ways.
- 9:28A there's some men who unfortunately were drawn to
- 9:30women who just do not really love that much.
- 9:34At all, but that's not the majority of people.
- 9:36Thankfully, thankfully, the majority of people in our
- 9:39country at least they married for love and the love can be
- 9:43recaptured. Otherwise I would be in the
- 9:46wrong profession. If I didn't believe that.
- 9:47If I didn't see that with my own eyes, the love can usually be
- 9:50recaptured, but it takes a paradigm shift in which both
- 9:54people realize that in order to be adored in order to be deeply
- 9:58loved, you have to act loving. So why don't you act more
- 10:04loving? And See.
- 10:04Now, what would this look like? What would this look like?
- 10:07This would look like. If you're always thinking that
- 10:09your wife looks at you like she looks at a pile of stinking
- 10:12trash, how do you look at her? You may look be looking at her
- 10:16and thinking she looks beautiful.
- 10:17But do you say it? Do you say sweetheart?
- 10:19You're so beautiful. You were the most beautiful
- 10:21woman in the room when we just went out.
- 10:23I don't know. I don't think maybe you do
- 10:26because men that do tend to get a nice reaction from the woman
- 10:30because women are people and people respond to loving
- 10:33Behavior by acting. I'm loving.
- 10:35So up your game act more romantic, I have a whole podcast
- 10:39head in concrete ways to be more romantic act.
- 10:42More loving say Kinder things. Go out of your way to buy her, a
- 10:46little gift, if you really bring your A game, maybe you will see
- 10:51that she starts to Adore You More.
- 10:54There was this thing that I read about this guy, that decided to
- 10:58rub his wife's feet every night and he just decided to do this.
- 11:01I just had a podcast on massage, so it's relevant.
- 11:04And after like a month or something, who knows about shit
- 11:08on the internet, right? But after a month or something
- 11:10this guy said that she turned to him he had been doing it like
- 11:13every night without being asked and she turns him with tears in
- 11:17her eyes and she said that she started to look forward to this
- 11:19so much and she really thanks him for it and it was, it's such
- 11:23a nice thing that he did. Now that is a woman who felt a
- 11:26deep swelling of love. I don't know where the marriage
- 11:29was at before. I don't even know if this is a
- 11:31real story but for our purposes and given my Experience as a
- 11:35couple's counselor, this seems like something that might help,
- 11:38right? Because think about it.
- 11:40If your wife did something for you, every night for 30 nights
- 11:43that you like gee, I wonder what that could be.
- 11:45Wouldn't you feel a deep welling up of love and adoration for
- 11:49her? Well, whatever the hell that
- 11:51thing is that she would love whether it's being positive,
- 11:54whether it's playing a game with your children, whether it's
- 11:57doing bedtime and bath time, whether it's bringing her
- 11:59flowers, writing her poetry, I don't give a shit what it is,
- 12:02then why don't you try to do it? And see if then she treats you
- 12:06reciprocally with more adoration, there are so many
- 12:09people that could just turn their goddamn relationship
- 12:11around really and I mean this so so seriously, there's so many
- 12:16people that could just turn their relationship around if
- 12:19they gave 100% like they would if they were told that their
- 12:22partner was about to die in a month, they had a month to live
- 12:26and if the way that they would treat their spouse in that
- 12:29month, if they did that for a month anyway, they could turn
- 12:33their relationship around. And I'm not have a dead spouse
- 12:36at the end of it. So think about that when you're
- 12:38thinking oh I should I try bubba bubba.
- 12:42I mean people don't verbalize that but just so, you know, they
- 12:44think well, that wouldn't work well, now, with my wife.
- 12:49Well, I've tried acting. Nice.
- 12:51No. Have you really have, you really
- 12:53tried? Have you really done what they
- 12:55would love so much? And then seeing how they turn to
- 12:59you with renewed, optimism, hope and love.
- 13:04Because human beings are reciprocal and, you know, real
- 13:10pair Bondi, sort of creatures and they love to feel loved and
- 13:15that is what evokes love in them.
- 13:18So this was your pep talk, some of my podcasts are more of pep
- 13:23talks if you want to be adored. If you are a man who wants to be
- 13:27adored, think about whether you are acting a door ring.
- 13:31Are you really giving openly of Yourself are you truly opening
- 13:36your mind to whatever your spouse would think of as loving
- 13:39and doing that thing? If not then I don't know.
- 13:43Can you really blame her for not acting a door?
- 13:45And also by the way tell her what you think adoring is 0 that
- 13:49time when you cooked me a meal, that meal was my favorite meal
- 13:52you ever cook me was so great. Oh, that time where you said
- 13:55that I looked Handsome. When I came down in my suit, I
- 13:57always keep thinking about that. Oh, it's so great.
- 13:59That you think that I'm funny, you know, that really really is
- 14:02an ego boost hearing you laugh. You know where I wiii never get
- 14:06tired of that. I could still make you laugh.
- 14:08Tell the person what you love about when they act loving and
- 14:13this will positively reinforce them and show them what they
- 14:17should be doing. More of when they have the
- 14:19impetus to act kindly towards you which they made more than,
- 14:22you know, that they do. All right?
- 14:25Also I do want to mention that. If you missed my dad starting
- 14:29over live event, you can buy a recording of that.
- 14:34And that's that, I mean, and you can message me for that and I
- 14:39will include the link. Please follow me on Tick-Tock,
- 14:41please follow me on YouTube. Please follow me on Facebook,
- 14:44Instagram, every place and I will talk to you all soon.
- 14:48But if you really want an assignment as though, you were
- 14:50my client actual week, as though, you would, if your
- 14:53spouse was going to have a finite amount of time to live,
- 14:57why don't you try can't hurt anything?
- 14:59I could only help and I'll talk to you soon.
- 15:02Have a great day.
