    Ok so then what’s your advice for when he freaks out and there’s a huge fight and things get so much worse after you say no? Have you ever said no and said “I’m gonna do whatever I want” to someone super controlling? It’s not like they say “Oh, ok. Cool!” And then everything goes smoothly after that. They get super upset and angry and threatening. They may not get physically threatening, but they threaten in other ways. They use anger, intimidation, and gaslighting. Even if they are fundamentally “good people,” they do these things

      Description fits here as well 40 years. However spouse is a good person and always has been. I clearly see where control started when I visited the parents. So when I say I live with my way or Highway know why it happened. Good luck to all. I find it humorous that she says talk about issues with person who controls! Part of control for me is NO DISCUSSIONS unless they decide!!! So good luck with that.

    they know exactly what they are doing. If they didn't then they wouldn't be able to refrain around other people and only target the spouse. They suddenly are not controlling when a divorce is filed and they have understood they can't manipulate people. They ask for forgiveness. So yes, they know exactly what they are doing and what their intention is. They know how to use subtle control as well. For example, never repair the house or let the lawn grown up knee high in weeds and bushes around the house. That's one way to keep friends away and keep the spouse isolated. They forced their spouses to pay for their own food on little money. The list goes on and on.

    I can not point to the exact time when it all changed but my husband turned into someone I did not recognized after 35 yrs of marriage & not getting his way on everything he accused me of being controlling, when he had control of finances, telling me that he was the one paying the bills; ...etc. Tried & succeded on putting my Alzheimer's mother in a home, told me exactly how the Divorce was going to go & stood his ground on no Alimony. After he got all he wanted tried to verbally mistreat me & I had enough!!!!

    Please pray for me. My spouse is very controlling he won’t let me make any friends I’m not allowed to speak to my mother and my sister were really my brother I’m not allowed to ever get together with anyone or make new friends or talk with old friends. He finds a problem with everyone. The only place I’m allowed to go is grocery shopping pretty much that’s the only place he lets me go by myself and that’s because it puts food on the table for him. I’m not allowed to have conversations with anyone that’s OK with him otherwise he freaks out. He says I love them more than him and if I loved him I wouldn’t need any friends or anyone else in my life.

    Bravo ! I was a controlling husband for 21 years ! Until God put me in the exact position my wife would complain to me about how she needed people , interaction etc etc , well I have had a huge humbling with this , and it took this to get my attention, it overwhelmed me with guilt so bad, and mentally that I’m on antidepressants now to just realize my marriage is not over and I didn’t destroy it completely, because my wonderful wife is STILL with me , I can’t tell you how this has and is still a transition for me , meds and therapy for the damage I’ve done , and how it was conditioned to me from my childhood , heed my words 🙏🙏

    Maybe my husband is a ‘great guy’ but has chosen to control my basic freedoms because say his father abandoned his mum when he was small and does not attempt to change after decades, this is horrendous behaviour and if his spouse for years directly asks him to change because his actions are causing her suffering -this is a bad person

    • @MarriageHelper
      @MarriageHelper  Год назад

      So sorry to hear you are going through this. One of the things we teach is that people want out of a marriage because they don't feel liked, loved or respected. And being controlled falls under being disrespected. It definitely sounds like that's what was happening. But we know there's always hope even in situations like this. Please don't hesitate to reach out to us if we can help you friend.

      This is great that you and your husband are working so hard to save your marriage. It's also great to know that you all are thinking about your children as well. My spouse on the other hand could not care less about our children all of whom are under the age of 18. Through God's grace and mercy I'm just taking it one day at a time and moving forward with our lives without him. I can't change his mind or control what he does so I'm making the changes to be the best mom for our kids.

    No one needs to be controlling over the other person .if your in a relationship its meant to be equal .no man or woman should be telling the other person what they can and can't do .its a relationship so you sit down best you can be honest and try and resolve the issues in hand .I know its always easier then said unfortunately some people won't listen or not prepared to talk or just ignore whats going on between them .men and women have equal rights don't let your partners control you .its a receipy for disaster if it can't be sorted .

  • @dorkusamericanus
    @dorkusamericanus 2 года назад +5

    Understanding what leads to these behaviors doesn’t help. He may have good intentions. But it’s not going to help. His mother was very controlling and an alcoholic. I can’t be with him anymore, and while I’ll miss him, I don’t have any other choice. I can understand where he’s coming from all day and how he got this way. But it doesn’t help. He doesn’t give me access to our finances and that’s that. I have zero ability to do anything and that’s that. The end. He also won’t let me drink. He flips out and leaves and threatens to leave. And I have zero friends. And that’s that. So it’s easy to say just say no, that’s not how it works. I know I have a right to do what I want, but it’s not how it works.

    Would love to see the flip side of this video where you address how a husband can take steps to convince his wife he isn't controlling.
    In my case, I had P TSD from years of my wife's addiction issues and once she cleaned up I know I was very paranoid and insecure for a few years which she mistook for controlling.

    My husband tells me what i can wear, a weekly allowance. If i don't do what he wants, he takes money away or punishes me with other things. He often threatens me daily. If we have a discussion or disagreement and he doesn't like it. He punishes me. I take care of my children, cook clean. Its never enough. It feels like bondage. I love him but I'm exhausted. He never says sorry ever. Today he put my exercise treadmill on the side of the road, i asked and begged him not to. He says you don't use it! Im like i want it please. I looked outside and he put it in the front yard. I was so hurt by his lack of empathy for me. He keeps whatever he wants, goes wherever he wants without telling me, he picks our movies we will be watching. My opinions don't matter. I want to leave. Also, i got a job but he said he's not sacrificing his job for mine. I never asked for that. I asked that he help maybe pick up kids from school and stuff. He said he can't. But, he won't let me wk night shifts because its too late. Seriously, im a prisoner. I don't have money or a place to go. I have two kids. I pray for a miracle 🙏

      No. Therapy inevitably blames him for all the problems and ends the marriage. I read one comment about therapy “we went into the office holding hands, by the end she was out the door looking at me asking why I behaved so poorly”
      My wife and I went on dates after our initial counseling appointments, we are in individual counseling now, no focus on the relationship or connection at all anymore. She is “becoming a strong individual” which defeats the point of marriage.

    I think the issue is too much freedom. When freedom destroys the relationship controlling comes in rescue. Naturally as being a woman you took their side but I think the husband should take the lead. If a guy protects and provides for his wife , he must have some degree of authority. Otherwise things will go out of hand. There has to be a boundary on both sides. When a couple is committed to each other they have to make decisions for the betterment of both.

  • @raisin4406
    @raisin4406 9 месяцев назад

    My advice, if your husband is controlling, is to accept that it isn't a bad thing. Every house needs a man who sets things straight. Him controlling you helps him become more masculine. If he tells you to do something, just say, "Yes, dear," and do it. Be nice to him and look good for him. If you think what he's asking you to do is extreme or difficult, then have a gentle discussion with him and explain to him how you think what he's asking you to do is becoming unreasonable and how he should be considering how you feel about it and what you're comfortable with. If he refuses, then ask for help from another family member, maybe his dad, mom, or your own parent. Someone who has a degree of authority over him. Marriage is all about understanding. A stable family needs its leader, so remember that your husband is your leader.
