That narcissist label requires a clinical diagnosis in order to hold any validity and is currently a buzzword being misused without understanding the implications. All people have narcissistic traits to varying degree throughout their life and mental development, but less than 1% of the population is actually suffering on the narcissistic personality disorder spectrum.

    Orion is spot on - I’ve always said that a wedding is something you should have after you’ve been with someone for 30 years and had a successful union. The party celebrates what has been achieved. Throwing a party for something that has yet to happen and no one knows will work out has always seemed backwards to me.

    • @chantellicopter

    • @YoungSantasGroupie
      @YoungSantasGroupie 3 месяца назад +54

      For more traditional cultures, the celebration is about the coming together of two families. The celebration is meant to encourage this unity, "greasing the wheels" of cooperation, so to speak.
      But yeah, it's not about celebrating a successful union as that hasn't been achieved yet. I think that parties for both occasions make sense (the beginning of the union and the success of a union).
      However, modern weddings aren't so much about celebrating a union as they are a celebration of the bride. Women in western culture have long been led to believe that their wedding should be the most beautiful/special day of their lives. The expectation placed on that day is rather counter-productive. Not to mention that this "special day" is viewed by the parents of the bride and groom as a chance to impress their family and friends
      Between the expectations of the Bride on her "special day", and the desire of the bride's/groom's parents to impress, the price tag often becomes enormous. The price of a wedding can be a big stress for a newly married, even if it's fully covered by the parents.

      Many times people date for 5, 10, 15 years or more then finally they get marry. However, soon after marriage they get divorced and the relationship ends. It seems that once people get married the stakes get higher, not jist financially but, emotional as well. Something deep changes in the heart and mind that somehow is never triggered during the dating or engagemnet period. There is more to than just tradition or a piece of paper. Just saying.

The first five years at a job you might still be happy but 10 -15 years down the road your priorities may have shifted and they’ll just be more negatives than positives about staying that you have to move on. Of course we don’t look at people like we do at jobs. everyone will tell you, “you have to make it work, you have to compromise, do it for the kids.” But if people could just accept that we had a good run and the amount of work to keep making this good for a mediocre outcome is not worth it. at least that’s where I’m at in my life!

    Perhaps many or most marriages fail because most people have no clue what marriage actually is or entails. I tell every couple who comes to me contemplating marriage: The WRONG reason to get married is because you are "in love." Marriage is NOT about being "in love." Marriage is the commitment to "love." Now, let's define what "love" is: an action, sacrifice, decision, and choice, and then see if you are "crazy enough" (committed) to be willing to make that type of sacrifice. The next thing I tell them is: "The single greatest thing you can do to love your spouse is to deal with (heal) your crap. In other words, spend all the time and money necessary with Orion prior to marriage or spend 10X that amount with James afterward.

    Being with my ex narc for the past 8 yrs. made me observe this very pattern. I think they wanted to feel very important in a way that is disturbing. Instead of building trust with their intimate partners, they destroy the trust that they built with you (in that case lying when they tried to put you in their pedestal). Once they have a committed partner, they can’t stand being loved authentically by one person. Instead they go on and prey on other women that is susceptible to their love bombing.
    My ex narc was a compulsive pursuer in a relationship. He would go back and forth to the women he were involved before or try to meet women in complicated situation so that going public isn’t an option while having you as their main supply. In the end they destroy the very person that loved them. They are like toddlers testing your love for them. Showing and telling them you love them isn’t enough, they will cheat on your face to make you feel inadequate even if you are more than they deserve. They want to test your love for them so they keep hurting you and when you have enough of their abuse, you leave. Then they tell you, ‘you never loved me because you abandon me’.
    Well in fact it’s their actions and narcissistic behavior that made you leave or in other cases they discard you and will give silly reasons of the discard. Mine would use, ‘she’s crazy’, ‘she’s a nega-star’, ‘she insults me’, ‘she cheated on me’ et al. So with this pattern of infidelities and emotional abuse (who knows what else) it’s better to walk away. I did walk away and is now rebuilding my life with our daughter. We are struggling financially because I’m not earning enough to provide for my daughter but now we get to laugh and bring with us sunshine every day. No lies, no abuse and no fake love. We only live once, forgive yourself and move forward but never forget the lesson that narc abuse taught you. That is to respect yourself to walk away from what’s hurting and destroying you. That you deserve a life of solitude, happiness and love. Hugs*** :)

My aunt cheated on my uncle…they got divorced. My grandfather cheated on my grandmother many times…they got divorced. The list goes on with extended family.

My wife’s beauty goes well beyond her physical appearance. I kind of see us as allies in a cruel world. We help each other. We’re here for each other. That’s it. It’s not about positivity 24/7.

      My family and extended one are the same. Both of my grandfathers didn't cheat but were verbally, physically and financially abusive to my grandmothers, one was overworked and the other was a housewife. Yet they stayed till the end and took care of their husbands when they were bedridden. My parents got divorced when I was 8 and my father never paid child support. My aunt husband cheated on her and kicked her out of the house along with my little cousin in one rainy evening. My other aunt generously funded her husband and his children from previous wife only to be resented in later years as a 'evil stepmother'. The list goes on.
      There was rarely a good role model in terms of relationship and marriage in my life. But I guess at least there were bad examples to learn from. I came across Buddhist teaching by Thich Nhat Hanh on love later in life and have been trying my best to instill that in my relationship. I have also learned a lot from my fiancé on communication and letting my mask down.
      I hope we could maintain the level of contentment and appreciation as you and your wife do. The idea of "allies in a cruel world" is very beautiful.

      @@lepham71441 that sounds wonderful. I don’t know if a fort mentality is right for everyone though. My wife and I have been very hurt by people in the past. I don’t want to make it sound like everyone else is bad or “against us” in some way. But I think there are advantages to committing to the idea of having each other’s backs. When things are good, things are good, and when things aren’t good, we become closer and lean on each other. I was severely verbally abused as a kid, and it took years of compassion and hard work on both of our parts to get me in a better place. I don’t want to make it look like I’m all good. I’m certainly no better than anyone else…at best. But we tend to choose the harder roads in life.

It was one of the major themes of Dostoevsky’s novels: A man who lies to himself and listens to his own lie comes to a point where he does not discern any truth either in himself or anywhere around him, and thus falls into disrespect towards himself and others.

    I think part of the main problem in any relationship nowadays is the thinking of, what is it in for me. We’ve become a very self-centered and selfish society. We need to stop and think about what the other person is feeling and/or needing more often and be empathetic to that. And become more emotional intelligent to be able to pick a partner that fits more with our morals and values, which is the base of our personality.

    Telling women that their beauty is as valuable as money and compairing the two is sooo damaging. So many woman realize to late that nothing gives you the amount of power over your own life and happiness like money does. Money isn't subjective and the value can't be argued. Money doesn't expire. To even compare the two is insanity. Other than that I learned and appreaciated this video alot. Gained alot of insight and understanding.

      Also the two of you showing so much appreciation for a woman's work at home, when I first hear it, it sounds very genuine, and I truly believe it's genuine but for insidious reasons. I can be wrong ofc but it feels like you're so appreciative of it because you know that's the shit end of the stick. You're really thankful that you don't have to do it. I don't really see men dreaming of being home husbands. And being a home wife isn't heard, it's just not forfilling for alot of people no matter the gender. And to waste your life on something so mundane and nonfullfilling is the ultimate sacrifice. That's why I think alot of home wife's builds a resentment and bitterness. She's wasting the only life she has on something that she feels indifferent towards. When you have a regular job you can change direction and change your mind multiple times without your whole safety net crumbling along with it. If your full time job is intertwined with family and your employer is your husband there is no room for changes unless you're ready to lose it all and take away the safety of the family.

Beauty isn't only fleeting, it's subjective, meaning the value is determend by others and changes depending on who you ask. Money has an inherent value since we all agree on the value and it's consistent. Relying on your looks is giving up your power/control and putting it in the hands of others while having money is quite the opposite. Money gives you the freedom to disregard others opinions since you can rely on yourself.

I wrote a long letter to him communicating my feelings on this and if he thinks he can work on being more supportive emotionally and if he can’t we should part ways. We’ll see what comes of that. I’m not going to stay in a relationship where I don’t have that emotional support.

Resenting my loud and crazy wife almost every minute of every day, for years and years. Beyond exhausting. I literally had to give up on my dreams to stay married. The good news is, my dreams were actually quite meaningless. My dreams were all about money, material possessions, and trying to be rich and successful so I could enjoy the intense pleasure of impressing people with what I had and making my friends and family sick with jealousy. I eventually realized that my wife always had my back, took good care of me, not financially (at all), but emotionally and through acts of service. I appreciated that part of her tremendously and I really needed that in order to feel like a whole person.
      Being broke but having a good woman was better than being rich and giving up half my shlt and paying alimony and child support. F all that mess. I have friends that went through divorces and it damaged them permanently. 20 years later, my wife has been working full time making a decent salary, I’m doing well making a good salary at a place where I’m actually appreciated. My daughter is a few months from graduating college (our only child) and all the resentment and frustration I had with my wife the first 10-15 years we were married eventually faded away. We’re happier now than we’ve ever been.
      In contrast, my best friend of 40 years is a multimillionaire, but his wife and kids are a total mess, he’s going on trips all over the world hooking up with prostitutes, has 3 multi million dollar homes, a $250k boat, cars, toys, $1000 bottles of wine and booze, just loaded to the gills. But it’s exhausting being around him because he’s now absolutely miserable and an annoying alcoholic. That could have been me. I wanted to be him for 35 years of our 40 year friendship. But I’d much rather have my life than his right now.
      Give it time and go down your own path. Go with your gut, and be thoughtful about it. What will come will come, and you just get through it.

The issue for me is that they really don’t spend enough time talking about why 70% of women leave the marriage. I’m not an expert so I can’t really say. All I know is that most women are not gorgeous young women that marry older rich, successful men. The average women I know marry average men.If they leave it’s usually not for money because they really don’t have any. It’s genuine unhappiness in the division of household duties, time with their children, the lack of intimacy, respect and being taken for granted. I think more women work outside the home and tend to want a partner rather than a traditional dynamic.

      You say you're not an expert so you can't say, but then you proceed to speculate in a way that favors women. Color me surprised.
      But why stop the speculation at that level? Maybe men stop having sex with their wives because they use pregnancy and childbirth as an excuse to get horrendously fat and unattractive. Maybe their wives never listen to them anyway, and they aren't getting sex, so the man doesn't feel loved and appreciated. Maybe the man is the primary breadwinner and has a more stressful job, so having the woman do more chores is more fair.
      Anecdotally, the nuance I listed has been facts of life for me. My mom stopped having sex with my dad and surprise of surprises, he cheated. I charged less rent for my ex and she agreed to do more chores, and that wasn't good enough.
      In the end, you accomplish nothing by speculating. The cold hard facts are that women end marriages 70% of the time and children are born to single mothers 40% of the time. In both marriage and sex, women are the gatekeepers, and guess what? They are doing a terrible job.

      Well, if they're always saying "I can't take care of you," maybe making a more obviously equal effort will get you closer to the mark? Not clinging, but maybe washing the dishes when you go over or something?
      You could look in the Apostolic Pentecostal community given you're cool with no haircuts, no makeup, a lot of church, and some fairly restrictive modesty requirements. It's more common to see them with a wife staying home than, say, Baptists

    Marriage can work well if the two parties continually work to meet the other person’s needs, selflessly…. that’s the hardest thing for most people, because we are naturally so selfish. We have to know that the other person has our best interest at heart. Most people, when they get hurt, default to, “to hell with you, I’m gonna look out for myself” and it goes down the tubes. It takes so much personal growth to keep choosing what’s best for the marriage and to choose a partner who will do the same.

      In our marriage, we have a habit of always giving to the other person first. It goes for eating good food, going out for activities, taking the last cookie, choosing a movie to watch, spending money..but it has to be reciprocal. Doesn’t work if one person is the taker and the other is the giver.

    I’ve been a stay home father for 3 years. It sucks. It’s not difficult. But it’s repetitive and boring. And it never ends. Deposing the stay home wife to prove she does 2 hours a day of effective work is unfair. It’s very hard to stay motivated when there is no real goal and reward. It really, really sucks compared to going to work 8 hour a day doing tangible things.
    That’s where the difficulty of being a stay home parent lays.

      It speaks volumes about our society when it is an anomaly to keep a serious promise or fulfil a legal contract. People get divorced for the most insignificant reasons nowadays.

    I love watching these conversations. It is very reassuring to me that I have cottoned on to most of the tips and tricks mentioned here and as a result have a very happy and successful marriage/family life. They really do hit the nail on the head with things, even though at times, I want to yell at them and put the missing female point in so they can fine tune their points a little more haha.
    I really hope the two of you do more of these interviews, it's so so needed right now!
    Thank you both, so much, for transmuting the misfortune of others and turning it into positive messages for others.

    I watched 2 hours of it and it's definitely not what I expected. It's just James rambling on like in a first therapy session.. I expected a real conversation/debate.
    You should definitely redo this and tell James to calm down bc you can tell Orion wanted to talk more than a few times, but he just let James continue to talk in his very excited way although without any real thoughts provoking ideas like they both did it in their solo interviews.

    They aren't taking into account the fact that women are now out earning men. They are talking about a small percentage of wealthy men.

      YES but women are not marrying the men they are out earning so your comment does not land.

      @laurenfinch You also need to keep an account that the only people these guys deal with are wealthy men. Orion's hourly rate right now is 400 to $500 an hour and is going up. I'm sure Sexton's rate is insane!

    I really didn't think I would listen to the whole thing in one sitting, but that's exactly what I did. These two are so fascinating and I loved hearing them having such an in depth conversation.
