      @janelleg597 He said not to quit or get fired right now. It was in a response text after she texted him. Can't explain everything in text. Nor in a 15 minute call. But he isn't why she's dissatisfied with life. She's dissatisfied with everything. I think she should get her hormone levels checked. I GUARANTEE menopause is the culprit at her age

    So they are both in a sucky job situation and both jobs are ending soon. However, if he sticks with his job the final few weeks, they receive a "substantial amount of money" and will be free from both sucky jobs. He just needs her to help keep them afloat for a few weeks. It's about working as a team towards shared goals. In that sense, it's OK to ask your partner to endure for just a bit longer. The shared goal and effort should be enough to make her feel it's worthwhile.
    It's also OK for her to say she doesn't have the will and strength to power through and ask him to make a different plan. It is not OK to declare unilelateral decisions or ultimatums. That would make him feel blindsided and betrayed.

    I've been married 21 years and going through the same exact thing. I over think to the point I procrastinate and then avoid the issue all together. Then become miserable and eventually explode when it could've been avoided in a 10 minute convo but wanted to keep the peace since he seems content. I think its time to have a deep convosation with not only myself but him. Thank you sooo much for the video as i needed this Dr Delony.

Since there is a time restriction, and because the caller seemed to be so secretive, John started to poke holes anywhere and everywhere, especially ramping it up around the 10 minute mark and even suggesting that she was a cheater for a brief moment.

      Women have the same experiences with working at a jobs they are merely tolerating, while also coming home and doing all the household chores. The husband in this situation may have a valid point about not quitting before finding another job, but it sounded like it was an order, not a request. And if he is like you and would just blow off his wife's unhappiness with her job as being "weak and whiny", he would deserve to be told to go jump in a lake.

      Some of us didn't ask for authority/empowerment. Our men wanted/demanded us to take high-pressured jobs and leave the kids in daycare because of the financial gain. Then they got angry/frustrated with us because it's hard for us to shift from masculine energy/thinking patterns (which is required when you work outside of the home) to feminine energy/thinking patterns (which is what they want when we are at home). It is not easy to switch back and forth between the two energies/thinking patterns. It requires a lot of mental and emotional effort. Men only have to operate with one type of energy (masculine) whether they are at work or at home, so it is easier (not easy, but easier) for them to deal with stress. Women were not designed to do this, so we get out of balance (either too dominate/aggressive or too cold [build emotional walls] as a way to compensate). If the woman is allowed to operate in the feminine like she is designed to do, then that relieves her stress which means she is more balanced which means she can be a comfort for her man which means he is more able to deal with the stress of being the leader. He doesn't have to use "drinking and Adderall" to handle his stress. Her feminine energy (softness, optimism, trust, adoration, calmness, affection, loyalty, orderliness, creativity) can help soothe him.

      why shouldn't he bear the entire financial burden? that's sensible so she can focus on the household, and he's clearly making enough for them to live on. Both of them have had aspired to live larger at the expense of her well-being and her children's care.

    My grandfather was in WW2. He would send money back over to my grandmother (they had 11 children total) she also continued working. My grandmother was taken the money and buying land and building them a new home. Her sister told her one day, "why don't you save that money so Lee won't have to work hard like a slave when he come home". My grandmother responded, " I don't want him to slave, I want him to come home and rest, then get his black ass up and go to work like everybody else"!
    People back then worked! They didn't sit around crying. And a few yrs later he passed away leaving her with 11 children. Was she tired? Yes but she got her "black ass up" and worked 💯 you get no sympathy from me.

    I think you're completely wrong here. I actually think his side of the story was revealed a bit and since she's the caller, you're only wanting to focus on her side only, but what it sounds like is she needs to be strong for a season. She literally said he cares about her feelings for the most part but not for this, and she is emotional and vulnerable right now so she's agreeing with everything you're saying. This is actually kinda misleading.

    I told my husband I didn’t want kids after we got married because I knew he would put it all on me. Like, working is enough of him and he would come home and "Relax" all evening and I'd be cooking, cleaning, raising the kids. Yeah, he'd play with them and all or smack them when they got on his nerves and that's about it. So, I told him all of this and gave him an exit. He didn't want to and now we're happy DINKS and able to retire in our 50s. Had the other set up taken place, I'd be in Prison. I totally get it when I see those crime shows I'm like, "He drove her to it!" 😂

It sounds like if she actually hermits down, she will be stuck at home with him more and even more depressed. As a woman, we are FORCED to do things all the time that we don't want.
