Simply to others, being busy and less available will do the trick. Being busy can mean that, as in with a hobby or others and it can mean busy alone doing next to nothing.

    • @whitelabrat
      @whitelabrat 8 месяцев назад +6

      So this is complicated though. Is it harming children or is it just harming how society thinks children should be? Those are not the same. People have an idea of what kids should be exposed to that ranges from what tech is good to what education they should get. But often people have no actual idea what is good they just know what they understand or what they think is good for them. The most obvious example is education where how we educate has improved but because people do not understand the methods they want a return to education systems that didn't produced results for kids in a modern society.
      So is it actually bad or are we as a society just attached to an outcome or method that is maybe not optimal but is comfortable because we understand it? It is possible that traditional marriage is breaking down because it was never as great a system as we thought. It is possible that the changes we see in some kids behavior is because they are growing up into a world that is nothing like what we grew up in and those changes can be huge in just one generation. Sometimes within the same generation so much changes that how people interact with the world changes also.

      I agree, and it's really interesting when it's laid out like that because it's not something that you consciously think about. We tend to think that attraction is so important for men that we don't really think that it's equally as important for women. A high level of attraction for a woman makes you much more cautious of reigning in your less attractive qualities; as you respect the man and don't want to lose him. It's interesting how women need that to keep them on their toes.

      She is wrong it is not attraction it is interest If two people of the opposite sex are interested in the same thing or share a similar situation at the time they began to like one another. Attraction doesn’t come immediately. Song’s are written about this phenomenon all the time “firsts we were friends then became lovers

      @@sheldonwilliams4952 that’s a very weird leap in logic. Many songs are also written about love at first sight. Songs are essentially poetry and have nothing to do with reality. I can confirm as a woman that attraction is essential. It’s pretty much always instant. In the case where it’s not, often it feels like compromise or settling. Real connection happens very quickly. Yes you need time to validate whether the relationship will go the distance; but the attraction itself is instant.

    As a guy even when I was in my 20's I never subscribed to the mindset of trying to find the most attractive woman. I saw so many examples of guys getting dragged through the mud and accept being treated like trash just because she was attractive. I have always been attracted to authenticity and connection. What makes a woman really attractive to me is her sense of humor, and a high level of empathy and compassion. Looks for me only go so far, Character and accountability and the ability to reciprocate energy in the relationship. Honestly that is all I want........her actions and words have to match, unfortunately it's been extremely hard to find. great interview, Sadia's perspective is spot on.

To fall strictly for looks is a huge, huge trap and I've known many broken men because of this.

Like lol it’s so easy to go viral in their podcast world … state already existing facts that are controversial in nature, reiterate them, and reiterate them in a way that has shock value. Example: promiscuity increases divorce rates and makes the children suffer. Noooooo…. Really? Wow eh I would’ve never guessed ! What profound insight you’ve enlightened the world with lol like that knowledge is as ancient as the Bible! Not to mention the kings having secret concubines //‘’womrn forced to be sex slaves for the king and the wealthy ….men were cheating on their wives just as much back then as people cheat now … there just weren’t studies done on it back then and it didn’t affect the children bcuz the wealth was there so wife and kids were taken care of. So according to that statistic promiscuity doesn’t harm the children’s upbringing, the lack of financial stability and support from broke asss lazy men and women not working enough/.effort into obtaining a higher paying job. Having sex with other polis neither here nor there when it comes to loving and supporting ur child. A faithful married man could be uninvolved and unemployed but they’re sexually loyal not promiscuous…and that harms the child. The promiscuity of a man or women isn’t a statistic fact that it harms children. It’s correlated not factual. And its correlated bcuz b upon getting caught it estranges them from the kid it the spouse keeps the kids away from the cheater using them as pawns…again…that’s a factor of an immature person robbing a child of their other parents relationship…

All of us deserve love, but the outcomes of our relationships are usually a result of our unconscious habits that are unfortunately programmed from childhood (unless we become aware of them and take action to make changes).

      I partially agree with these comments only because even though I also come from a broken home, I have aunts and cousins who have been married for decades since early adulthood. No infidelity that I know of, however, seems miserable. Almost as if they’re waiting for their partners to die. Staying married to someone doesn’t equal a successful marriage. Whether you come from a broken home or not. I don’t have the answers, but it’s not a one-size-fits-all-all. Keep in mind there are people in relationships who are afraid to leave. The kids sees this and more than likely the cycle repeats.

Looking back now I would have married him within the first few months together at city hall! Im not sure I can pin point exactly why our marriage and love has lasted other then I truly couldn't even imagine my life without him.

    I would argue against the last point to some degree. I think if one party comes from a broken home and the other from a stable home, but the former has done the work to heal and perhaps has a "chosen" family, it can be a beautiful relationship for both parties. Trauma can harm you, but if healed, it can also provide perspective for those who struggle to understand difficult people. Likewise, a healthy family dynamic can tremendously heal someone who lacked it. This, of course, requires self-reflection and empathy from both parties. I think a lot of these blanket statements should be seen as generalizations and not rules.

    For someone who claims to be an academic she over generalizes a lot.

That it is maybe the women she hangs with who might be attracted to men they have to remind of their anniversary instead of applying this to all women.

    I repented from porn, alcohol, pot, cigarettes, Facebook, Instagram and toxic relationships over the past year. Its been very difficult, but its been worth it. Turning to, believing in and trusting a higher power has been the key. Finding and fostering relationships with those who've done the same is essential. Exercising and eating natural foods are crucial too. Again its difficult but worth it.

      If you stopped at 24, you missed a lot. She has strict marital values and believes that marriage should never end in divorce at least for the sake of children. She's not really "clumping" people together, she's stating facts such as p0rn disensitization or marriage based on merit and not looks or wealth. You're already fixated on what you want to hear because of your personal experiences. Had you listened to someone who came from a divorced family and were married a long time, you may have enjoyed it. May I make a suggestion of the divorce lawyer Mark had on about 4 months ago.

      There's a lot in this video that is really off. Here's some disagreements I had within 6 minutes of watching:
      1. The divorce rates between Millenials is going down--divorce may have been more of a function of Silent Generation-Gen X
      2. When you actually talk to Millenials and Gen Z's, people are talking more and more about things like 'intentional monogamy'. That might sound silly but if you pause and think about how Boomers and Gen X got married and had kids JUST TO GET MARRIED AND HAVE KIDS you start to see where the actual fault line lies. A lot of Boomers and Gen X parents flat out never actually liked each other.
      3. The idea that sex toys for women drives divorce...sex toys have literally existed forever. We have actually found dildos made out of wood from prehistoric civilizations
      4. The idea that she's saying @6:00 comes from porn is absurd--now to be clear, I DO agree with her that if you're getting with a woman because she conforms to beauty standards, it will lead to your destruction. But the thing is, that absolutely does not have to come from 'porn'. I was with a woman like this--conventionally beautiful to me--but that wasn't from 'porn', it was WAY MORE because she matched that aesthetic of 'the hot valedictorian'. Literally nothing there to do with pornography, just my own faulty assumptions at the time.

    I think she is speaking from experience of her clients who are wealthy men and women. Majority of women are in big disadvantage in marriage. Also women’s sisterhood is not fake. A lot of women suffered enough from men (not wealthy successful men) and they seek for support and get support from other women, bc they can’t trust men. Sadia is just living in a different world.

      The sisterhood is likely to be true if the other women do not see you as a threath. A highly attractive woman find it hard to fit in the women sisterhood because women throw the girl code off the wondow if they see you as a threat. That's what she meant.
      If women dont see you as a threat/ you're unattractive they are likely to support you but attractive women are mostly not liked by women because they see them as threat. Attractive women are treated better by men than by women.

      Me too. Bad programming leads to bad choices. I married someone I couldn't stand and justified it by saying, "beggars can't be choosers." And at the time, I was quite pretty (sorry, but I was). However, I had no self-esteem. I was a wreck due to constant rejection. The marriage lasted 14 months and I never found "love" again. The ONLY reason I'm sane is that I was chosen by God to be saved in Christ and set free. My faith is my salvation both literally and figuratively. ✝️ 🙏 I'll never marry again.

    I married for love, supported him emotionally and financially while he climbed the ladder, my body birthed our children. As I got older he searched for younger left me with no home, the children and a huge loss of his income (my job was on the back burner for his career). Your take is I should just except that all the burden of bills children lack career and faded looks should be on me and he just leaves with his career money girl our children’s age and walks away to have a happy life is fair is wrong. In a relationship someone always has to sacrifice to keep the family prosperous the person that does should be protected financially if the other goes with the ability to make the money.

Women are expected to now work on their career so they’re not in need of finance support and go 50/50, be a traditional mother and wife and look like a cheerful upbeat 25yr old for life to keep her man satisfied! It’s as if ppl like this “expert” doesn’t see women as human beings.

    I met my husband at 40 and he was 42. I realized that he was kind and a responsible person but I did not fell in love with him. There was an attraction from both sides. Today, after 18 years being together, our relationship is becoming stronger. We hardly argue. We are very respectful and caring to each other. My conclusion is that to be in a healthy realtionship, there are some important points: 1. we all have some baggages, we have to be ready to confront all issues and improve ourselves together 2. Mind games, being irresponsible, disrespectful are some of the reasons why people divorce. 3. The most important one for me is communication is bullshit when one of the partners is a narcissist or selfish. To communicate and listen to the other person, first you have to have empathy, understanding, taking responsibility of your mistakes and trying to improve them.

  • @Evilanarchy81
    @Evilanarchy81 8 месяцев назад +28

    Love your channel Mark, this was a brilliant and captivating conversation to watch. Sadia is spot on with every single word she spoke. The question of why would you get married if you already have a child and are living together is the exact situation I was in. We had been together for about 10 years and we decided to have a child. When our son was around 2 years old I asked my ex partner if she would like to get married , for the reason of taking my last name to make things easier for documentation and that kind of stuff so she would have the same last name as her son, which seem to make sense to both of us. So we got married and after 5 years of marriage we got divorced and separated due to me finding out she had been unfaithful. That was about 4 years ago and I'm still struggling with the pain of the separation not to mention being financial destroyed after fighting a custody battle to gain access to our son who was 7 years old at the time we separated, my heart breaks when I think about the impact its had on him. I feel as if I failed him as a father because I could keep our family together. She took our son from me and denied me access which absolutely broke my soul because my son and I are very very close. I ended being awarded 50/50 custody but it was a battle to get there, Our son is my world and his welfare and him growing up to be a confident, respectful man that can communicate and has emotion awareness and hopefully be a role model for other young men is my job and a job that I take very seriously and I do it all with out yelling or being physical. I coach and guide him with great communication and positive encouragement. When something gets hard or dosnt go our way we say good now we have the opertunity to learn and make adjustments. and I despise social media because I watched in real time as it slowly consumed my ex partner.

    I feel like some of what’s being said is very generalized and polarized. I don’t think “feminism” is the same thing as “girl code”. Those two things are very different. Feminism just means that you want females to be equal to males. I don’t think we should be combining how women treat each other with how women should be treated in society. This is like saying there isn’t a problem with black lives being undervalued because of black on black crime. Two very separate issues. It’s true that women compete with each other but I don’t see the “friendly competition” of men being harmless. It causes men to try to attain the most expensive car, hottest wife/gf, overly invest in career rather than family and a general sense of dissatisfaction. Although men treat each other better than women do, I do still think the competition that men have can negatively affect society in the way I listed. I do agree with a lot of what’s being said with porn and social media but another disagreement I have is I think a HUGE reason for women filing for divorce is because they’ve been given no choice, their husbands weren’t faithful or they treated them poorly. Maybe your clients or experience is more focused on upper class people and how those types of women marry for money but of all the people I know in middle class and lower class got divorced because of something the men had done, not because the man married someone out of their league. In fact I can’t think of one instance out of my friends and family where that is the case. They have all gotten divorced because the woman felt undervalued, abused, or there was infidelity.

My husband and I have been best friends and lovers for 15 years and have a strong and wonderful marriage. Modern marriage doesn't require religion. We got married in a quiet and private ceremony that was very special to us to express our vows and commitment to each other. We have three children and are deeply committed to our children, our family and each other. Having a strong marriage doesn't require religion or duty. It is respect, love, growth, commitment and joy.

We also do not plan on having children. Our marriage is a symbol of our unity, and commitment to love and stand by one another for the rest of our lives. I (the woman) was also who first raised getting a pre-nuptial agreement and stressed its importance. Some of the points Sadia raises I think hold true, but others feel like broad generalisations.

They come from a privileged position as males and are struggling to evolve which might require they grow up and take responsibility for their short comings instead of looking to blame women as a whole for their dissatisfaction in life. You clearly married the man you saw the values you were most attracted to and took the risk. Wish ya well and continued health in your relationship.

      @bliss4383 vicarious trauma is more about the actual shift in world views that happens after witnessing trauma that happens to others (ex. "i guess since this happened, all people are bad"). Secondary trauma is witnessing the trauma experienced by others. I imagine in Mark's case, it may have started out as secondary, but gradually shifted to vicarious. As you can see, they are very similar (some argue they are the sane). And both shouldn't be ignored. ❤️

      I’m not sure why you would conclude that. Sorry for not composing an essay on my takeaways.

      Some beautiful women have no idea they are beautiful. And they go though life wondering why people are being so cruel. It's important for them to be aware of it and how avoid the pitfalls.

      💯💯💯💯 sometimes it’s not about looks but luck, there definitely are pretty women who ar lonely because girls feel threatened by them, male friends only waiting their turn to get with them so arnt genuine, most men will view them as sex objects or the men who ar attractive as them will most likely be players/f boys & have a tonne of women chasing them so he won’t be loyal to her either. She either has to settle with a not so good looking dude or wait for the attractive men her age mature up.

    Seems like this video is more for pushing a narrative than being a thoughtful piece.

    I didn’t get married for religious reasons, but because I wanted a family and to join my husband’s tribe of him and his children. His ex-wife is also part of our greater tribe and I love her as well as part of my family. I’m grateful for our fortunate situation. And I think you’re right, my admiration and love of my husband is important for our success, as is his for me. We also honor one another’s individual journey in life as most important and a big piece of the fuel to maintain our attraction.
