    Don’t let this story or maybe a past similar experience that you may have had dim your outlook on successful relationships. Relationships can work with the proper communication, transparency, authenticity, and just the sole fact of wanting to be committed to each other. I didn’t let this experience alter my opinion. As you can see this video is not to bash my ex wife. It’s just to share my story in hopes to shed light and inspire. This happened 4 years ago, I’ve learned from this experience and leveled up. With that being said I will not tolerate any bashing or negative comments towards my ex in the comment section. That’s not the purpose of this video. Those comments will be deleted 💯🙏🏾

      @@USArmyRetired I was talking about this with my aunt. I feel like generations change and then change back. It seems like moms generation were like "independent women'' mindset and the woman doesn't cook regularly, or nurturing her partner. Anyway, I think the new generation is getting tired of the feminist movement and are moving towards the more traditional man/woman connection. We want to love and take care of our man, our love, our air that we breathe... I am grateful to have found someone. But because the other women are more visible and vocal, the loving, nurturing and supportive ones get looked or lumped in with the rest. My advice, is educate yourself, choose a partner based on the RIGHT reasons. Look for substance instead of superficial things. This goes for men and women. Of course this isn't fool proof, losers fall in our laps sometimes. But keep the faith✌️

    As a woman who will never cheat, i will say this; the moment that you realize that a woman has a tendency to cheat you should run. Not cheating is about respect for yourself and your body as a woman. Its never about the man or the relationship. A virtuous woman would never feel comfortable sharing her body , or having anything intimate with more than one man. A tendency to cheat means when problems come, she will cheat, and problems always come

      The act AND hiding it, making a fool of him. I know a guy who was cheated on and the wife cheated on him. Made sure to cheat with a guy who looked similar to her husband so if she got pregnant, she could pass the kid off as her husband’s. She got caught, and got dumped.
      Other guy was in it for sex, so he bounced. Husband is with someone better. She’s alone now and says she regrets it. Nope, she regrets getting caught.

      @DividingLineChannel 3 месяца назад

      The women praying for a good black man are typically women from other races. Black women, or what I refer to as Kkkeishas, are praying to the Creator, to give them an unnatural situation where they get to be the man or the woman based on which gender is receiving benefits and or conveniences.
      Kkkeishas should focus on putting an end to their body count while leaving black men alone. Your mothers taught you to despise anything with wooly hair, especially your children and the men who still carry the phenotype of Christ. All that "sisters bring to a marriage at this point is misery and inappropriate compromise.

      @@TheRTM what's funny is that you call God an "invisible sky daddy" showing your limited perspective and understanding but you're telling her to grow up. Where do you think you came from? What animates your soul? Where did it come from and where is it going? If you can't answer these questions then you have no standing when telling someone their beliefs are unfounded. You can say humans have probably misunderstood God or the universe throughout history because like babies, we can't conceive of something so much more complex than ourselves, but you cannot say with any certainty that God, an intelligent creator of any kind, doesn't exist. The fact that you think consciousness comes from nowhere or appears by some random chance says you haven't thought things through very deeply. I suggest doing some of that before trying to clown people online. To people who HAVE given it some thought you sound juvenile and ignorant. The funny thing is, the ones who are the meanest to others are the ones who don't believe in something bigger. Is that a coincidence? Probably not.

    I went through this in the relationship with the mother of my children. We weren't married but, I wanted to be more than anything. She broke the bond with countless emotional infractions against our trust which ultimately buried my self esteem.....and I stayed and prayed that the day would come where I had the strength to step and when I did, she's never been the same. I literally have had to be her lifeline for survival over the past 16 years and I have the children with me etc etc. Me and my woman of the past 16 years, pray for her and do our best to help her out eventhough she's angry at us alot for doing so. Her guilt of how she did me, makes her feel that we enjoy seeing her go through. It doesn't, it still hurts. Life just goes on ya know. Had it not been for God's mercy, I'd have never survived what I endured in that situation.

Take care of the child the woman is not your responsibility but you see these women are so selfish and evil they play the victim and manipulate you good men and you allow it.

She was convinced that no one would want her. He didn't have children. My mom was willing to have her tubes untied and do it again but he didn't want to put her through it. One day we were together for Christmas and he said that he was happy that we allowed him into our life. I was floored. Like sir, allowed you ? We are happy you are here. We needed you more than we realized lol. I never expected my moms first marriage to go the way it did, and Ididn't expect him to be an unavailable dad but it happened.

    As a man in this situation, it is the most loneliest position to be in because when your going through it, you cant really talk to anyone about it. Its embarrassing, belittling, and a huge blow to your self esteem. Woman have support groups and they automatically get the benefit of the doubt. But when this happens to men it makes us look weak, feel weak. Through that suppression builds anger and distrust. Sharing this had to been therapeutic I'm sure. More men need to share these experiences because it happens more often than we think.

      Hope you're getting through it day by day. I know some men who are going through this and I never could stand the constant "man-bashing" that exists in this day and age towards all men because of a man or two who did them wrong. And even though, I myself have been through this with a common-law marriage and, so I always defend men that have been basically taken advantage of by women today who only think of, and aspire to get attention, have her wild a** friends and "the bag" at all costs instead of, realizing they have a "good" man who work hard for their marriages, their money, their children because good men DO exist!! You can always start your own channel, podcast or blog to help you get through this as well as other men. Good luck to you.🙏🏼🙏🏼

      bagboy that is BS! Who wants to hear about another person's failure? I don't! It is saying experiences (of others) are the best teachers. tHAT EXPERIENCE IS WHAT IS CAUSING THE NORM WITH RELATIOBSIOPS THAT DO NOT WORK. DMML! What he describes is his contribution to the failure of the norm that he attests does not work.
      FYI the ONLY WAY women feel superior to men is in da bedroom if she cannot perform to her expectation. It should not be that way, nor will it work that way. And that is bc that is the only place he is permitted to rule over her. Who is their right mind wants to rule over a woman when it is the greatest gift you can give by letting her make her own decisions. Your desire shall be to your husband and he shall rule over you.
      He spoke similar words to the murder Cain about satan. If he doesn't (rule) then she will feel superior to him (sexually) bc she last longer. This is not the way my Heavenly Father designed sex to work.
      The problem is, without the knowledge of the woman's sexuality, which has to be taught to individuals actually learning how to satisfy her. This is when experience is the best teacher. Let me enlighten you about her sexual frustrations. It is all bc of what she is missing in the experience.
      The knowledge tells you how to make her cum. The teacher of all is our libidos. It can only teach you as you progress with it. that progression is always an increase in time spent erect inside her. (this is by both ages) She has no other gauge that is acceptable as reasoning. Again, she feels helpless!
      Its in my buk! But bc I feel sorry for you guys this is her orgasm system and how it works in terms of her total sexual satisfaction. The different (rite qik) is how men and women are stacked. I am only concerned now about females.
      She had three levels and the first one is the hardest to understand and deal with and that this why it is hidden even and primarily from her. If women knew how to satisfy themselves, why would they need you? But the truth is they would tell you! Women are the prize guys! And you are letting satan take then away for you. It only was made to work one way. Why should it work any other way when perverted? (rhetorical)
      The first level is the most profound and stimulating. She has 5 erogenous points that must be connected in the order they are arranged. Each point represents the intensity of that point. Up to the 4th point (1-2-3) she has three steps to each.
      The 1st point is the clit. (we'll call her doris since she is the door keeper - you heard of the cartoon doris the explorer? Well this is doris the clitoris!) She must get off twice within a minute of penetration and this is where most will miss it before they get There. It is called the violation of the unwritten protocol for penetration. (the secret is 1-3-5-5-3-1) Its in da buk!
      Anyway, the first level is for the first hour that is supposed to "feels like a roller coaster". The second level represents the time and space for her to be in female superior position. If she is she will never complain about equality.
      It makes her feel like she is "walking on a cloud". This counters her anxiety in the world called free-floating-anxiety. This causes her to wreck her relationship by displaced aggression. (completely subconscious)
      The third level is actually for shared sexual positions, whereas 1st is mainly male superior (ruling over in missionary not the whole hour, duh scartty cats) and 2nd female superior positions. (again not entirely the whole time) But third is for lateral and G-spot. (the latter must be rotated into to work the way they should) if you do it right she will say "it feels like she is dying"!
      That is the pain of orgasms she is seeking and minus what everyone is trying to offer her which is just plain pleasure. She needs extraordinary pleasure with the pain of orgasms which take time. IT IS ALL ABOUT SPENDING MORE AND MORE TIME ERECT INSIDE YOUR WIFE BAREBACK! What's the problem! You finish oo soon when she is just getting ready to get started to cum.

      If you fulfill righteousness by walking with the Lord and taking his yoke(s - one s hidden) and enter his two rests, then he will reveal the Patyr; to you.

    Just seen this story and it really hit home. I was married for about 2 years. Ended in divorce when I found out my wife was still having sex with her sons father. How I found out? When I had to go out of town on a business trip, my step-son said his dad spent a night and slept with mommy. “He always sleeps in there when he comes”. I questioned her about it and a child at 5 is never going to lie. She finally confessed and I called it quits.

I want to tell you how sorry I am for all the pain you went through. You are right though sometimes God allows us to go through losses in order to teach us lessons. I'm going through a loss right now that is just devastating but I want to learn what he wants to show me in it. I don't want to pass it by or try to get around it because I know if I don't learn from it it I will miss out on what God wants to say at this time in my life.

I'm just not as skilled as you in expressing exactly what happened. That period was the loneliest & most painful time of my entire life & the only person who kept me from going insane was my mother. I thank God everyday for her because even though we live in different cities, our frequent phone calls were so therapeutic. It's absolutely insane how women all seem to go through a phase in their lives where they feel like they deserve better than what they have at home & start looking outside. I understand every single thing that happened because I felt the exact same pain. I'm also at a place where I now feel confident enough to talk about it for the first time in 3 years. All of the best for your plans going forward.

So we all gotta be sensible and use wisdom to pick a suitable partner or else Gods gonna let you fall for that heartless bad bitch and your gonna cry when she cheat. Romantic Relationships are unfortunately the most shallow type of relationship as they involve so many shallow conditions (like physical looks or wealth) that keep it together. However I do believe that God can guide you to a suitable partner for you but it’s still up to you to decide.

      Malcom don't quit yo' day job. A woman chooses a man to give her total sexual satisfaction. (that total is an increase over the decades or she get bored) She does not know what that is but she will know when it is not it.
      One night stands became more prevalent due to females not wanting a second match. Most men (tell me) they don't do well the first time with a female they meet. You are not suppose to unless you are a great lover and she purposed marriage. (forget about it)
      When asked (a man) what word would you use to describe getting with a new female? And they all say 'work'. Then I say, then what is your job if she is work? And although a light dawns there it is still no voluntary explanation without the knowledge of it. But the frequent sight of a woman's gender makes it worth less and less.
      This is what women are facing with their sexuality and their men. She really does not know what to do since "doin' her" was what it was all supposed to be about. And it is!!!!!!! It takes a righteous man to properly stimulate a woman to her full capacity
      But every female over the age of 20 sexual need is dictated by her age. The problem is there is no real education of knowledge of relationships in the land. (on earth) so it has come to a point that it must prove everything everyone is doing for what it is.
      And it is out of total neglect of the total pleasure you are supposed to be experiencing with male and female that is missing as husband and wife. I will not work any other way bc it was not created to work any other way then how it works. She is all about sex with her man. Who is she supposed to be that way with, a trick! If she can't find it there then she will let anyone lickit. (that just means she don't like you)
