I tried one of the recommendations from the rabbi. I no longer yell to my spouse . If I need something from my husband, I go find him and talk to him. I actually really like it.
I actually love this idea and would like to try it!
I also do this with my mom. No more yelling and I get some exercise too!
I have always done this. My boyfriend is partially disabled so it's a real burden on him if I'm upstairs and he's downstairs, so he will go to the feet of the stairs and call up.
I tried the sex in the dark for a week already and its actually way better than before. Our relations improved and it's only a week
@@billmy2251 having sex in the dark doesn't allow for eye contact which allows for more of a closer connection and eliminates distractions
This is so random, but my grandfather Vladimir Dashevsky painted that picture that's in the background of this video. I can't believe that there are people out there who have his work. Really touching to see it in the video.
WOW THATS AMAZING. I WAS STARING AT THROUGH THE WHOLE VIDEO!! IM AN ART NUT SO..IM GOING TO CHECK OUT HIS WORK!!
That is so special! I’m sure you can reach out to rabbi Friedman to say that too!
@@korzhik13492 I'm definitely planning on doing it! So happy to know that my grandfather's work is hanging in such a great man's home.
I saw that painting in some jewish home. It was a signed print. Limited edition.
@@stevemuzak8526 That's really cool to hear. My grandfather did many lithography works, so I really shouldn't be shocked to know his artwork is hanging in people's homes, but I'm still taken aback a little. Thank you for sharing.
I am a Muslim ,, but I can surely say this is one of the wisest men I have listened to... Thanks Peter for these interesting immersing experiences
They say that the longer the beard is the wiser the man
This is why Gandalf was considered one of the wisest in all of middle earth
I feel the same, this Rabbi is indeed very wise.
@@TheGero95 hence why I am growing a beard
Blessings to you 🙏
Please, I’m a Christian and I certainly feel that the rabbi is talking to everybody that’s where his wisdom resides . Thank you ❤
✨✨✨
Yes, I agree with@rodriguezmm Love this sit down conversation style. More of these and surely these types of conversations, very much needed. The rabbi spoke very clearly and with such tenderness❤️
Who else thought this was so deep and too much wisdom at once that you actually need to watch it twice to fully understand?
There were one too many "deepities" lol
Also too short need more time and delve deeper ideas are to lofty to discuss briefly over tea.
I’m watching it again tomorrow.
@@stephanief7832 There are many Manis Friedman articles and videos available online. He is a very famous relationship expert and very well respected in the Orthodox Jewish world (not just Chasidim). I haven't heard him in a while, yet after a year of Corona and everyone on top of eachother, it was good to hear this! I want to look up other Manis Friedman talks or videos and listen to more!
He tried to one’up a 74 year old rabbi 🙈
Never thought I would be interested in this, but leave it to Peter to make this incredibly enjoyable to watch by being such a good host, and finding such awesome people to talk with.
wow, youtube worlds colliding!
Thanks, super smart talk.
Love you C-Milk! Been following you since the early years! We know a little bit what it feels like tobe kicked out countries :\
Saw you on H3H3, now on Peter's vlog, man, you are all around!
I like you and Winston! Keep going and enriching RUclips.
C Milk!!!! welcome to the inner workings brother
This man would have frustrated me in my 20’s, but in my 30’s I’m finally wise enough to understand his message. Even if I do love a totally modern life.
@@charlesK12960 so are you
You will be even better in your forties. Then the slow wind down to your 80's when you will not care much but you will know enough.
I am seriously blown away by these Hasidic episodes - absolutely AMAZING! I cant get over how wise these people are, it really makes so much sense
I know right? so many customs and traditions that, when you uncover the meaning, they make PERFECT sense. I guess that's what a culture of rabbinical learning and teaching will get you! So cool! I'm drawing a lot of wisdom and knowledge from these videos.
@@ForestDewberry right?!?!
Yeah absolutely
that's why they rule the world and whole world jealous about it, because they are the wisest and most united people on all earth. hey yeah they deserve to be ruling the world. hell yeah
@@N1ka😂

I have learned more from this Rabbi in this one video than I have from my therapist
So true
I felt the same
👏👏
@@Inkahustler Same here.
That's because therapist only care about money! they're the most unhappy people on the planet. when you leave God you have problems......facts!
I feel like an hour with this man could change my entire life. It feels like I've got half the puzzle set, and this man has the other half. I genuinely wish I had a mentor like this
Right!
Well, we have many smart rabbies. Some of them give english lectures. U can't begin to imagine the deep wisdome they have. We believe it takes 40 years of learning from one rabbi so a person can understand him to the fullness.
I have personally met Rabbi Manis Friedman before and was privileged to attend many of his talks. If you are interested --specifically in this topic, or in others, he has a youtube channel as well as websites with hundreds of hours of expounding in detail on perspectives that can turn your world on its head. Just search his name here on youtube, or google "its good to know manis friedman" or "11213 manis friedman" if you want to hear more from him :)
Thanks for the replies. I'll definitely be checking out his channel. His calmness and character is needed desperately in my life ❤️
Go to Crown Heights and set up a meeting with him am sure he would be glad to speak with you.
The way the rabbi speaks and explains things is comforting and peaceful, it’s calming. What a great teacher and leader of his family.
"If you're going to get married, do it because you believe in marriage, not because you're in love with someone."
This guy literally compared love to chocolate... I can't believe so many people take him seriously 😂🤣
@@supreme5580
The point is that love comes and goes, and even when it's not 100% there for one reason or another you are still going to be married to your spouse.
You can't base an entire family's life on love. Of course it is important but it cannot be the most important thing.
This can be seen in divorced couples that have kids and since their relationship was based on love and they don't love each other anymore they are all about themselves and the kids always get the check for their parents problems.
If they would've based their relationship in something more constructive, even after a divorce they would still act as a couple in the matter of their kids, instead of being the advocate for their personal opinion.
And these things begin with individual persons and kids, but they usually become societal conditions that define the future of the world we live in.
Because messed up families produce messed up individuals of all kinds (criminals, psychopaths, egotistical men and women with power, nihilist teenagers etc) and they all get nurtured by dynamics in their families.
If you only value love, you're gonna treat everyone and everything we don't love like worthless crap.
And that "worthless crap" is still going to affect us in one way or the other.
I'm generally not a fan of the character but some of his songs have an important message in it, listed to "killing strangers" of Marilyn Manson.
Just like you're not going to eat chocolate 24/7, but you still need to have a meaningful life that cannot depend solely on the enjoyable things in life.
Love is "just" one of the many aspects of life. If you want to make everything about love you're going to depreciate its value.
Of course, you don't marry someone if you don't love that person, but you don't marry someone just based on love.
That's the point.
@@magnumopus1628 some people are lovers for 50 years without marriage according to Rabbi Frideman love does not exist outside of marriage. are you telling me those who don't put a ring on their relationships are faking it? because thats what he said if you put that into context,
@@supreme5580
It's not about the ring, that's just a symbol of their declaration of commitment.
I always say that the commitment now called "marriage" doesn't necessarily require this specific ritual.
People also "married" for thousands of years before this word even existed.
You can plan for a sky diving experience with your companion and kiss each other in mid air as a personal ritual of commitment.
And you don't even necessarily need a ritual, you can declare your commitment in the every day life.
But the point is completely unrelated to the topic of discussion.
Or at least I fail to see a connection to it.
It is the commitment, not only the love you feel.
You can love someone with whom you're having a messed up relationship, but wanting to marry her/him solely based on that is obviously wrong.
I loved that too. I haven't been married yet but I want to find someone who feels the same way. That's such a beautiful thing
My future husband will be required to watch this video.
i have watched it, any chance, lol😄
@@muhammadahsan3380 :)))))))
And let him know...I remember our meeting with the Rabbi before we got married (years ago), and the Rabbi told my husband, every Friday, at least for the first year, make sure you buy flowers for her for shabbos every week! And he did!
@@muhammadahsan3380 Of course but only if you are in my age range. I’m 28 years old, you?
@@skontheroad2666 Awh thats sweet! May God bless you with a lifelong marriage filled with joy , happiness, love and health. 🤲🏾
As a religious jew I have to say, Peter you've done an outstanding job bringing forth our religion. You have succeeded where even secular jews have failed. I'm really enjoying watching all your videos. And a big thank you to all those amazing people you interviewed, I learned a few new things my self!
As a devout Christian, I 100% agree! 🤗❤️🙏
You should show this to your Satanists friends in DC
very nice Rina
FACTS!
@@Alexandr-pl1pc omg so true! Yet I don't know what you mean by "friends in DC" because I am European (you mean politics?) I would love to see "Satanist react" on this interview!
I've been married for 35plus years and this rabbi is so right! Marry because marriage is good and worth fighting for.
"You get miserable you get dangerous" This was a great message. Thank you Rabbi Manis Friedman!
I am 17 min in and had to stop and take out my notebook. My husband and I are going to watch it together and take notes. He is dropping gems. Thank you
You’re too young to be married at 17, that’s abusive.
@@cravechoco you're hilarious

I am Muslim and I love my Jewish brother
I’m actually Jewish and we’re all from the same family salam aleikem
@@Lippy10 wa lakasalam, shalom, peace be upon you too 🙏❤️
That's a lie because your god says, don't take jews and christians for friends if you do allah will consider you one of them. Meaning you're not muslim anymore. So stop lying and learn your religion. Because it calls for violence against jews and christians and calls them worst kind of names.. Quran 98:6, Quran 5:51
@@michiokaku297 Jews thrived and flourished under Muslim lands and rule while they were prosecuted everywhere else . So how or why did that happen ?
@@michiokaku297 Thats the most ridiculous thing I've heard and is just not true. Look at the holy land for example, Jerusalem only had peace when Muslims ruled. When king Salahhudeen fought the crusaders and reclaimed Jerusalem the Christians killed themselves in fear of being tortured like how they did to the Muslims but Salahhudeen spared them and allowed all people to live there
Everybody needs a Rabbi.
“This is the IRS” and they didn’t laugh …THAT made me crack up! 😂
as a religious jew i found that hilarious
ur comment*
This Rabbi is sharp in his responses. I wish I was that wise.
I'm sure you are as wise, just in a different way about different things. The fact that you recognize wisdom proves it.
It comes from a lifetime of religious study!
@@dollymadison2397 it depends on what you call wisdom. He is sharp on what he studies. But if it were true wisdom he would realize that it is all man made tradition. Jesus died on the cross for our sins and we are no longer saved by the law, but my grace. Following all these crazy rules is not what God requires for salvation. We are saved by grace through faith.
@@dollymadison2397we are saved by grace through faith. Not following a bunch of strict man made laws. It's so sad to watch people try to gain salvation by following laws that are not from God. It's ok to have sex with your wife with the lights on, just sayin!
@@montanawild7558 these are all G-d given laws and he is not looking for salvation he is living a g-dly moral life by following g-ds laws to get closer to G-d and cus g-d commanded. not for salvation .
Deepest video I have ever watched in my entire LIFE!!!
I am a 21 year old Muslim and this video left me S P E E C H L E S S !!!
I'm a 53yr old Christian & this is the deepest video I've ever watched, too! So deep, yet so simple. Like music...has never occurred to me, but it really IS a HUGE distraction. I even hear songs that take me way back to the 1970s! Not exactly "in the moment", not even in the same decade! Lol.
You can find something similar or better in Islam let's try it both of us bro.

I almost did not listen to this video.
I am so grateful because this may be the most-important hour of my life.
This hour was the most valuable one among the countless hours I’ve dedicated to studying committed relationships
I'm a Christian but have deep respect for Jewish people.

I am Catholic, but was born in Boro Park, Brooklyn. I went all through Catholic school in Brooklyn. I have been married and living in NJ, for 50 years, where I was an elementary school teacher for 40 years. These videos are so valuable for all! Even though I saw the Hasidic community as a child, I never really KNEW them! Peter, you are such a joy! Thank you from the bottom of my heart! You are a wonderful, open minded person!

@@aharondunajec1118 no lashon hara allowed here
@@eliezerzefat8929 This is not lashon hara. Learn Chofetz Chaim and you will know that you have to warn the public in cases like this.
@@aharondunajec1118 Rabbi Friedman subsequently issued an apology for the offensive remarks.
I grew up in Williamsburg & once I married I moved to BoroPark. Religious Jews are the most abusive religious groups. Because you have the name rabbi doesn’t mean he is a good person. Rabbis are child abuse & domestic violence especially against women. Please take religious people words with a grain of salt. This particular rabbi is one of the worst offenders. Open your eyes.
@@cravechoco How about you give some logical examples? You’re just saying “things” while saying nothing.
It's two people becoming one in spirit it's the bond between them amen
Every parent should listen to this and pass on the information to their children.
Yes
Every man that is even thinking of getting married should be required to watch this video front to back twice. This guy is dropping truth bombs.
And woman
He spoke to me…. He is so correct.
Right, if you want to fuck through a sheet in the dark and your wife is Ok with that. Why do people have such a universal need to be enslaved. It's like you need rules and restrictions for some ridiculous reason or reasons. I'll never get that.
@@Valkonnen Why do we need laws? Laws are restrictions placed upon each one of us, but we are better as a society because it brings order. Of course, sometimes it can go a little overboard, but everything within moderation, right? A lot of what the rabbi said during this interview was very moderate if you were to ask me.
Also, I don't see it as being enslaved. It takes a lot of willpower to resist caving into your lower self (animalistic) and listen to your higher self (divine, I can't think of a better word for non-religious people).
I see it as being enslaved if you only do things to satiate your lower most desires like sex, greed, gluttony and the like. It's the reason why being a sex/drug addict is looked down upon even by non-religious folk, those people are slaves to chemicals within their brain. If you're overweight or obese, then being able to put restrictions on your diet to lose that weight is in your best interest, and it will take a lot effort to resist those urges to over-eat.
Hope that helps you understand where a lot of us come from.
@@Valkonnen If you break all the rules then is when you are enslaved, it enslaves you and all pleasures. Having morality really frees you from the beast within you.
The Rabbi mentioning "love you" becoming almost meaningless is understandable, I feel that way with "sorry". Saying sorry is too easy, but actually putting physical actions that show your sorry is much more meaningful
Yes! Literally had this conversation today🤦🏻♀️
@@kelizabethg1 primary school teachers and parents keep telling young children to say sorry and it is thrown out there like confetti and it is damaging. Where the hurt child is coerced into to a docile acceptance that an attack no longer matters, based on some meaningless “sorry word” spat at him from his aggressor who then walks off with impunity, believing that he can do anything nasty then say sorry, get away with it, resume and repeat the same bad behaviour. Yet I always tell my children to not do anything for which they may need to apologise, which means on the occasion one may fail and need to apologise, it is a true apology with weight and thought. Not something, that just trips off the tongue and is merely a meaningless social nicety that adults who talk too much push on impressionable minds.
@@kitchfacepalm so true…it’s trained us all to be in relationships with narcissistic people😭
@@kitchfacepalm yeah, one is not sorry unless he or she is changed. Changed behavior is evidence that one is sorry, not just the word to get away with bad actions.
Im not married and im single, im not lonely and Im very happily living my life.
❤Ditto , Marriage isn’t for everyone, not everyone could do what we do either , but been happy whatever works for us 🥰🫶🏻fifi
GAH!! The fact that this Rabbi does relationship coaching and marriage counseling for all religions / denominations. What a perfect representation of God's love.
I'm Catholic. Thank you Rabbi. What wisdom. Changed my perspective on marriage. You're absolutely right
I'm Catholic also, and it really 'enhanced' my view on Marriage.

TERIMA KASIH RABBI FRIEDMAN
TERIMA KASIH PETER
"STAY BLESSED"
The Rabbi should be everyone’s marriage counselor.
I think he is a very wise man so he's more than just a marriage counsellor in my eyes. *A man with many hats*
i guess it's because the western idea of marriage has evolved partly from jewish thought somewhere 2000 years ago
No way , he himself doesn’t seem to know what love is.. he knows what the basics of any relationship should be, he knows how to make two ppl be nice roommates . But he’s missing the core of what makes two ppl feel deeply connected or inlove
I'm a Muslim but this man is the most wise man speaks about marriage l heared ever in my life
I'm not religious but I do agree that you making these videos is a selfless activity. You provide people like me insight into peoples lives that I personally would never know otherwise. You make it so I can empathize with a Jew, an Amish, or an inner city kid. Thats not to be taken lightly, because you're helping us understand others. And what could be a more selfless activity than promoting understanding.
I know this video is a bit old, but I'm a recent subscriber and have been going through all of your videos. Just want to say thank you if you ever see this.
wow huge respect for the rabbi, coming from a Muslim. He sounds exactly like my grandfather
Do you have any channels about Muslims like this? I would love to know more about religions and I don't know anything about Muslims but stereotypes. Would love to change that!
@@anic131313 Peter has some videos talking whit Muslims about Islam, you can ckeck it out right here in his channel

@@odoga4095 Yes. It provides some nice basics on Judaism. I will check out other videos :)
These themes are universal. Here I am in Nigeria watching it with my wife few months after our wedding. Thank you for this. Shalom aliechem.
Wow you are great!!!
Shalom my friend best wishes with your new family
I feel like we ALL need more sessions with Rabbi Friedman! Make this happen for us Peter! Pretty please!
This should be taught to every 15 yo in America. I wish I had been taught this way.
I wish I had the Rabbi in my life before I got married. He dropped a lot of wisdom in this video. Made me rethink all the reasons why I got married. I immediately went and followed him on Instagram. Looking forward to studying his videos and lectures more. Thanks for posting this video. You literally made a difference in my life today
You should check out his other videos on relationship. Had to download the entire teaching
I am a Christian but this wisdom resonates with me
Jesus is Jewish so I believe He would approve . Jesus is the icing on the cake .
There is a lot in common with traditional Christian thought (we did come out of Judaism), but many Christians have lost this focus in modern times
@@CrankyGrandma Shouldn't Christian and Jewish marriage basically be the exact same, as Jesus didn't really change anything about it? I also got a lot out of this as a Christian Catholic.
Haven't finished this yet. Im at 41min mark and so far this man is 100% correct in everything he has said. The deeper meanings of everything he is saying is sooooo true!!
Rabbi Manis Friedman is one of the wisest people I have ever had the homer to listen to. I really enjoy his teaching. Thank you Rabbi!
As an African American woman, I was raised around alot of Jewish people. My mothers friends were all Jewish. It always made me happy and yet sad that I couldnt really be a part of such a wonderful culture. Thank you for your enjoyable videos.
Yes you can thru conversion to Judaism.
YOU CAN!!!
Kim Wakefield. If you want to be part of a jewish community find a shul and see if you like it!
There is a path to "immigration" (conversion) for anyone who wants to join the Jewish Nation. The Jewish people are a Nation State with State governance legal structure.
Interesting. I’m a white guy (married to an African woman - a blank woman from South Africa) and also grew up in a heavily Jewish area in Long Island NY. before we got married we lived together in BK, not far from where much of these videos were shot (Kensington).
Now we live in north Va and I’m terribly homesick, really miss NY, and SO miss many of my Jewish and Slavic friends from back home.
This Rabbi is speaking truth! My dad always says 'You learn to love the person you marry and chose to be with.'
It's even better though that someone learns how to enjoy someone's company and knows that they like the person to begin with before they love them.
There is a corollary to that in choosing your vocation. Popular culture repeats the mantra that you should pursue things you are passionate about but the truth is the opposite. You often become passionate about your work only when you become good at it. Success breeds passion. Many great artists fell in love with their life's work only after they developed their skills and achieved proficiency
You believe that though?
A wise man once said “You don’t fall in love. You rise in love.” You’ll stay married for life if that’s the case.
It’s true and false, yes we all need to love all humans but romantic love is very different. It has to be there to begin with . How is that possible? Cuz ur correct match has a part of you in them. And u will naturally always love that part , no hardships can break apart a true soul mate Connection.
Love means loving a part of u in someone else.. the more you love urself u start loving everyone but nobody will still beat the love feel for ur soul mate cuz they are the most similar to u at its core..!
They can be opposite on the outside but inside , emotionally there’s the deepest connection which can’t be split
This is so powerful. I'm 77 and a widow (married twice). Wish his speech was more clear (I'm not deaf🙂). Oops. Just realized the CC wasn't on🙄. Have to watch it again. No problem. These people are a blessing.
Goodness, profound, illuminating, thank you Rabbi, I am not Jewish, but your words would certainly make a better world...thank you 🤲
This is just one video. He reads his audience well. Changes things and his many of his beliefs are way off and will not make this world a better place. Will send this world to hell! Satan is a great deceiver! Do not be deceived!
I love this Rabbi and I am not Jewish. I have watched him on RUclips so it is great to see that you are interviewing him. Please keep on presenting the Hassidic community to us. Very enjoyable.
Me too!!
Also Rav Dror...he's younger and with Breslov another Hasidic group.
These Rabbi's are so uplifting and calming. They also teach without criticism unlike some other Rabbi people recommend on RUclips!

This rabbi just in just a few words changed the way I thought about marriage and life
Respect to Rabbi I'm a Muslim man and i would sit every day with him listening to learn how to be a better person
I am Hindu and i loved every word spoken . Thank you Rabbi
✨✨✨✨✨
As a Muslim I have been watching this series within the Hasidic community. Firstly the similarities between the teaching of the two religions is truly profound, and I truly admire them with how they have stayed true to their beliefs. I think Muslims can learn so much from them. We have truly lost ourselves and I don’t think there is a community within the Islamic world that holds true to the values of the religion like Hasidism.
Today’s video clearly should be watched by everyone. Truly explains the essence of marriage, just shows how far we have moved away from the true meaning and marriage that our ancestors use to follow. A real eye opener and I hope to see more videos. Love them all!!!!
yes fine...but what you see in these videos is just 1 sect of Hasidic Jewish faith, there are other branches who do not think or follow such a life pattern. ..and then then there are other different sects within the Jewish religion as a whole, each living in a different mind thought and lifestyle.The same applies to the Muslim community and all religions. To say your community is lost and barely existing is unfair incorrect judgement, maybe you personaly prefer to live in a certain style/ type of muslim community that is available out there somewhere...but some muslims choose to live another way while still rooted in the basics of their faith.
Very nice comment!

@A Sojourner i'm sure he does and more, but that does not mean that what he speaks is the best or even the better answer to everyones situations.
@A Sojourner hahhh!...nice one... 'deride him'!...just because i do not idolise his every word does not mean i'm defaming him or putting him down...be logical and mature, no one is perfect. Like i said previously he has plenty good stuff to say, that many others say too...helpful advice, but reality is that its not the answer to everything. Suits some not others... a fact of life for us all.
@A Sojourner i think you mis'read what i wrote...i said he spoke beautifully on 1 topic but his answers may *not be the best or the better answer to everyones problems*... this is not a battle of the smartest, i dont know why you take it so personally? we are discussing...and no one,none of us in human form is near perfection in what we think or teach or do...its your free choice obviously to invest your energy wherever you like, but to personally get defensively agitated in a discussion about another 3rd party person's job is somewhat strange?
This is my Favorite Episode EVER ! I really ENJOYED Listening to Him !!! ♡♡♡ I'm not even Jewish ! I agree with Everything He said ♡♡♡♡
This is truly bridge building. I’ve lived in brooklyn my whole life, love the Hebrew language, respect the religion, have a 1/4 Jewish daughter, and many, many, many Jewish people I love in my life. Yet i still have some antisemitism…. And this series of videos has dispelled it. And I find myself jealous particularly of the labovovich. I wish there were some way I could institute Shabbat and so many of their traditions. What a gift this video series is. Thank you for helping me see with less bias.❤
Oh wow! I am not religious, but this man.. I could listen to him for hours. His words hold so much wisdom. Amazing video.
He has a RUclips channel
100% agree
For sure
He's very wise.
Im a Israeli married religious woman and i asure you, Judaism has more then u imagine to offer the world.
No, thanks.

I love and respect Jews even more so now that I have learnt about their faith and how similar it is to Islam but I am Muslim. :)
@ONLINE INTELECTUAL cut the bulshit. Never was never will be such a state. With no coin. No history. No contribution to the world. Even Arab's working with me know that and aren't liars like u. So save it.
This was so wholesome. We need more conversations - and counselors - like this. Thank you, Peter, and thank you, Rabbi Friedman.
Religions divide people and cause wars
This was by far one of the most interesting and educational videos I've seen and the fact that it wasn't just about the religious aspect but about life in general and his approach to marriage and what not was fascinating and at the same time gives one so much to think about. While one may not agree with everything he says, there are multiple valid points that should be considered. I'm very impressed by his outlook and the way he values marriage and life in general.
I'm a Muslim..I have got addicted to Hasidic jews series...Good Work!! I see a lot of similarities between Hasidic jews and Islamic practices. 😊
Three children from one father Allah
Islam took alot of things from judaism
@@niro6492lol
I could listen to this rabbi speak all day, what a wise man
Me too
What an absolutely delightful conversation; thank you sir 💐
Never did I think I would agree with a rabbi but this has been the closest I’ve ever come to hear someone else express what I’m also thinking and feeling about this. No wonder that I’ve been single for almost my whole adult life
Same! I just never could verbalize it.
You'd be surprised how similar people are at the end of the day
We jews love this Rabbi!! Thanks!! How blessed you were to spend personal time with him!! 💐💜💐
Learned a lot, Respect to Rabbi from Pakistan.
Are your living in Pakistan? I'am always in disbelieve when Pakistanis have something to say positive about Jews LOL
@@baruch2511 what can I say , you are generalizing , like other people.
Hi Muhammad,
I watched @Peter in Pakistan and his whole series in Lahore & Karachi etc. It was amazing & an eye-opener, the people there are wonderful and so honest. Cheers from Pakistan.
This Rabbi is something else, he is smart, sharp yet clear cut. No nonsense.
Fun Fact for everyone.
95% of all marriages in the Hasidim and Orthodox Jewish will last forever. Only 5% end up divorcing. This is a still a high mark, and considered a "family tragedy". Couples will do everything to make the marriage work - for the sake of their children and future generations. Children with a single parent are left with terrible scars all the lives.
Family Lives Matters Indeed.
@@lteitelbaum That's awesome.❤
@@muhammadahsan3380 😂😂🤦♂️
This conversation is so profound. I want to listen to this rabbi every day. I would love to talk with him like this. Thank-you both so much for sharing this intimate, important conversation.
I was raised Jewish in a small town in North Carolina. I too would love to talk to the rabbi.
“Intimacy is about ‘Us’ ,sex is about ‘it’ “! Truth!
Rabbi dropping some serious wisdom.
There are things that can never be unseen or unheard. This will be with me for the rest of my life. I drove a truck for 30 years and Brooklyn was my stomping ground. I saw the Hasidim but was completely ignorant of who they actually are. I've learned so much today. Thank you!
I just subscribed to Rabbi Friedman's channel. I thought my parents just got lucky. They never touched before marriage. My Mom explained how they met and discussed how they were and what they wanted in life a few times. She said love comes later. The important thing is respect. I didn't get it 40 yrs ago. This interview hit me like a brick. Its true. Modern relationships are very lacking.
Thanks for mentioning he has a channel.
The first time I sat down with my now husband we talked for 8h straight my tiny student bedroom. We spoke about where we came from and what we wanted in life. He waited for so long to make a move although it was implied we were interested in one another before we even had that 8h conversation.
I then thought (and it sounded absolutely crazy in my head) 'what if I married this guy'.
That was close to 9 years ago, we've been married for 4.
What is the link to his channel
In Islam with the permission of the Girl and Boy we arrange the marriage...No dating...that starts after marriage...and you grow to love each other
@@fatimamakada2763 Not all. We have dating but not like Christians in the western world do. In my country they officially make everyone to know by having little introduction "ceremony" but you don't just go often out or anywhere you want and of course no sex before marriage. Some do have but that is only after becoming officially fiancés and just before marriage. ( we have some women who are prostitutes but that is because they are prostitutes and they work in brothels' but very small number of such women. mostly divorced ) That is why western societies now collapsing very fast . They allow their children especially girls to date , bring home boyfriends and have sex and parents are proud of it and see it very normal. For them it is a good thing and this is what children need to learn to mature . Look how bad their countries became . Girls sleep since very early teenage years , dress very vulgar and women before marrying sleep with dozens of men . Also, females dominate males. They have very high rates of divorces and they divorce for any little reason . I'm not even talking about atheists or liberals . Look how their conservative Christian states in US are collapsing. They have more teenage pregnancies and divorces . Absolutely no hospitality , no morality left. They are friendly but no hospitality even with own family members . Also they don't have concept of family or family bond . Well, all that nasty things brough them to the point where they became modern Sodom & Gomorrah . Only Amish and Mennonites are exception and very few families from the others .
Well said. I think of it this way. I have always argued and fought with my brother. We always played pranks on each other and sometimes got hurt by each other as kids (sometimes still 😂). But despite all of that, I care about him to death, and I know both of us would take a bullet for each other.
Rabbi here is saying the same thing about a marriage. The love is the icing on the cake, the result of caring about someone more than you care about yourself - a partnership, a union. Being responsible for one another, caring about what is inside, no matter what.
Rabbi Friedman is a wonderful man to listen to - so grounded and wise. Peter, you have an extraordinary gift in your ability to make human connections, ask deep questions with sensitivity, and to listen carefully. We all can benefit from these videos. Thank you!
Peter is most selfless, generous and respectful person I came to know through RUclips. He feels guilty for making money through his content, he is honest man!
Thank you for this Peter. I am not hasidic or jewish but I enjoy seeing this world and feel a connection. As someone from Gen Z I feel like today no one has morals and values especially about sex and marriage. Everything the Rabbi said was soo meaningful and I wish more people saw the true value of being in a relationship.
This Rabbi is amazing. He is up on popular culture. He has the wisdom of Solomon and ties it all together in an easy to understand package.
Great minds do not talk down to people or try to impress others. Like the Rabbi, they share knowledge.
I love this rabbi what a wise man !love and peace from a muslim!
Wisest words I've ever heard I wish someone had shared this with me when I was young
Really ?? Doing it in the dark is for people who don't want to see each other !! 😂 SO ...reality bites..Yes, I love Lucy....shows back when had separate beds and we know who runs the entertainment industry 🙃🤣 So HE was taught a MORE RESPECTFUL way for the human being ? Full of it again. He escapes reality by making his own rules ...some against nature.

I would recommend THIS specific episode to anyone (any creed, religion ideology, OR even of a secular persuasion) that will be getting married shortly. Beyond INSIGHTFUL!! 🙏
This was so deep, I had to pause it every few minutes and just reflect....
@David Ruth This is Judaism, very deep and can be unsettling at times. I live in Israel, it`s a very deep and enlightening experience at the same time.
The aloneness problem is a true point.
I could listen to this conversation all day.
This guy is so wise. His word have made me stop and think deeply.
As odd as this may sound the rabbi has stunned me on a personal with how he puts across all these basic concepts and I agree that this generation is lost between intamacy and love so much. Much respect for the wisdom of this man
You are giving a wonderful gift to your audience by doing what you are doing. Creating a platform for understanding other cultures and the people within them. Keep up the good work. Congratulations on your marriage and I hope you have many beautiful years together…as I did with my husband of 50 years before he passed away. Many blessings for you and your bride.
“We gave already , no thank you.” I love him
Peter, this video popped into my feed after watching the new Torah episode, I was raised Catholic but this Rabbi has espoused more wisdom in the last hour than most of elders and Preists have ever spoken. I absolutely sat transfixed and learned things today that I believe might change my life and help renew the intimacy that has nearly been lost in a 35 year relationship. Thank you to you and the Rabbi for this lesson. I am not sure how I discovered your videos, but I am grateful I did.
Christianity used to be like this not so long ago. My grandparents, raised catholics, slept in differente beds in the same room. I´m sure they marrieged to form a family and have each other, no to have sex and fun, not for love.
@@gamotoyoutubegamotoyt6515 ???

This wisdom is still found in Traditional Catholicism. Modern Catholicism is attempting to satisfy a modern world, that's why modern Catholic churches are empty.
To have it in the forefront of one's mind this relationship should last a lifetime so how would I treat anything I want to last for 65 years! WOW! Every bride and groom needs to really understand that one idea! What a game changer in our throw away society. This next generation isn't even bothering to marry at all.
such wise words....Hasidic or not, everbody getting married should listen to these words...
Not just that but anyone who wants to be intimate with the opposite sex! Increadible.

Lost everything.
This fellow is an excellent interviewer. He is so respectful and asks such intelligent questions. Just discovered some of his work yesterday and am captivated.
Fun fact, Rabbi Manis Friedman is the father of Benny Friedman, a young singer that you interviewed in another episode.
Also a wonderful singer. The whole family is wonderful. My Rabbi is related to Rabbi Friedman and he was a great speaker at our synoguoge
Wow I didn’t now
he's also the brother of Avraham Fried, hasidic superstar singer!

Such a great example of a "good conversation." No combative debating. Just an interviewer listening more so and humbly responding. And the interviewee calmly and confidently responding. Barely any editing necessary to move the conversation along. Thank you for sharing!
Aptly said.
This sets himself apart by not being combative, but being sincerely interested. Today’s journalists are not, only agents of lies & deceit.
Super fascinating and truly helpful.
Been single for three years with no intimacy at all. Listening to this and thinking of my previous relationships I can see why I felt alone and a lack of intimacy with my partners, where I could have been better and them also.
I'm going to take a lot from this video into my next relationship, whenever that may occur. Thank you to Peter and the Rabbi!
This made me cry because these truths hit so deep, are so true, are so fundamental in life, and we are being taught completely different. These truths were like warm cream on cold,rough skin.
Who is teaching you 😮 or what are you allowing yourself to be taught? It doesn’t sound like it will do you much good if it’s the opposite of truth 😢 but it doesn’t matter what people try to teach you, if you have your compass set to truth, you can’t go wrong, ever ❤
I’m a Christian and I listen to Rabbi Manis’ teachings
America was founded on those Judeo - Christian values. Early Americans studied the OT in the native Hebrew, and they weren't Jews. These became leaders and presidents that shaped America and made it great. America had very conservative values at one time, maybe as much as hasidm.
Jews just obey more laws in the OT but the base philosophies and morals are very similar.
You’re that naive. Btw in 2022 money will fall from the sky ...
@@cravechoco not for you! For me it has been all my life : )
If I had heard this video in 1974, I would never have dated or married (albeit briefly) my 1st husband.
6 years later, I married a wonderful man. We both shared the ideas in this on our own, naturally.
40 years of happiness and counting.
The wisdom is not just about marriage but all our relationships, institutions and sprituality. It is not about "me" but "the relatinship"
Rabbi Friedman is a great teacher. I love his channel. Thanks Peter. You have a service I've never seen anyone like you at this day and age. Everything you delve into. It's real and not scripted. That's what make you unique.
If someone would have told me all this twenty years ago I would still be married.
i think when people love eachothers its not that hard to stay together if its ur correct match, most divorced ppl i know no matter how nice they are were usually not a good fit to begin with.what do u think? he does have some good advice that enhances marriage but i dont think that will make it or break it
@@Thelittleclipstore well I agree. Unfortunately I was married two times. The first time we were quite young and had no idea what life's about, but he actually had a good heart. With that one it would have helped A LOT if someone told me these things. But we were silly and had no wise person to give us any advice. With the second, it was a really bad match, exactly what you're talking about, it wasn't right from the beginning and became catastrophic after our child... 😔😔In general, if people had some kind of religious/psychological advice on a regular basis it would improve many things..
@@noisette82kapo49 👏👏👏
It's never too late to learn good things and apply that in your life
That's why premarital Biblical counseling is so important. It's so easy to give up but so hard to make it work. It's a daily choice not a feeling.
I'm sending love to all the people with any religion as long as they respect others with other religions and share love and avoid war .
