Gosh, look at the Likes. So true!! Cannot have intimacy with a man you dont 'trust'. Im not talking about a man who cheats. Im talking about a man you cannot trust with your emotions, YOUR HEART. If he walks all over it, he doesnt honor you. So why allow him to dishonor your body, and your soul. Just hand him a bar of soap with a hole in it. That will suffice for what he needs.

Many women have altered hormonal cycle, because of 20, 30 years of birth control pills....the pills affect womenś health and microibiom in guts and also causes depression, because it affects the production of serotonin as her microbiom changes, so it affects womens moods....... If men would take similar birth control pills it would affect their testosteron and sperm quality and mental state and microbiom in body....so the men would feel crazy, because of changed hormones. Especially if women start using teh pills montha fter first period, her body dosent get the chance to adopt the natuarl period with antural hormonal cycle. So it willa fter her heaôlth 40 years alter in menopause she amy had many hormonal problems. ....She said men would refuse such pills taht alter their sperm,a nd testosteron and microbiom and health. But society decided to make this deccion on women withgout explaning them the side effects. But the expert M.Pelz exlained therea rec 6 factors women should follow to have abundance in her hormonal balance and realtionships. Fasting, exercise, good , etc. but in different times of the period Its interesting. She says women get 5 day period of having testosterone level higher, and its time where is best idea to have sex and be intoimate with husband. Fathers of daughters also ask questions about things,because the daughter is more focused on tasks in some period.

You can tell that to your girls but it just doesn't work like that. The No1 reason of divorce is financial issues.... of the husband. No marriage ever ended because the wife lost her job. Husband loses the job? Can't find soon one? Or he can't find one at the same level as the one is lost? 90% risk of divorce. Compute that : 9 times out of 10. Do you seriously think men stop loving their wives because they lost their jobs? The problem of modern marriages is not husbands not loving their wives but precisely of far too many husbands loving unloving wives who are in only for the pleasurable ride and who will bail out in the slightest of the bumps. Or they will bail out because the ride is too smooth, too boring, LOL! Today it is not the men, it is the women the ones who are the No1 problem in marriages.

In grad school at Tulane university to become a therapist, I learned about secondary trauma. As a therapist we can experience secondary trauma through hearing trauma from our clients. That’s why a counselor needs to have a healed soul a minister needs to have a healed soul.

Omg I agree. They expect us to be porn stars now. And we don’t get paid or provided with personal dietitians, personal trainers or the constant cosmetic work. Plus they expect you to have kids and not lose your everything and to keep up with work and them too. Or else they will get the porno out and you’re history! Plus they get to do that too cause they need their ‘me’ time. Meanwhile in the real world you have to hunt down a man who can be respectful to you and actually participate in real life with you in order to find actual mutual love and understanding. This is why women become lesbians. Most aren’t born that way, they are driven.

It's refreshing to hear a man admitting how he is responsible for the disconnect!!!

There is another result of trauma that is not often mentioned by a lot of “experts”. It’s the down ramp after the event. Someone is faced with a traumatic life event and continues to relive it with every trigger that puts it in their face again. That very episode has an effect that continues to shape the person into a PTSD like state.

Sometimes intimacy is about thinking younger and making uninterupted time for you as a devoted couple, just like when you escaped your parents and other responsibilities to spend rejuvenateing time with each other.

This man is brilliant! If I can only have friends like him or brothers 😃 What he is saying has substance.

Basically, we've lost the ability to have vulnerable intimate relationships to help and be there for one another. We've focused on materialist and capitalistic lifestyles. About sums up the whole conversation.

Misleading title. This is a mental health message

I don't know if anyone else will see the connection, but his story of frantically looking at the foundation in his house reminds me of the scripture where Jesus tells the parable saying something similar to "the one who hears these words of mine, and puts them into practice, I will liken him to a man who built his life on a good foundation. The winds and the rains came, and the house stood, because it was built on a firm foundation."

This just makes me cry listening. I'm 66 and dealing with some issues like signs of trauma. But my problems started in the mid 40s. I am a Christian and have been for 44 yrs. I'm really trying to trust the Lord for whatever is wrong. It started when I began going into menopause.

There is no problem G-d cannot heal. Menopause is not an illness. There may be hormonal factors not balanced due to diet and lifestyle. Whenever I have felt down in my life, I first look at my physical health. Then I go talk to a friend. I got married finally, for the first time, at age 61. My life started over then, 7 years ago. The journey toward health (physical health is also cumulative - you are either going up or down) and joy, or in other words, getting closer to G-d by being in alignment with His will, is a never ending one. And I know for a fact, G-d wants you to be happy! if I may, I am sending blessings to you to pack for your journey along the way. You are not alone, ever.

People begin to realize that “what I have tried so far hasn’t made a difference in my soul. While Jesus is the answer Holy Spirit is the renovator. Seek therapy not counseling if you need to.

I'm 67, post menopausal since 42, total hysterectomy. Surgical menopause is immediate, brutal, and, if you're lucky, is over in about 4 years. At least that's what happened to me. Hot flashes and night sweats will change your wardrobe. Amazing how I could do 28° degrees in a t shirt! These days I'm in the geezerhood years. Got breast cancer lost a titty (AAcup, easily corrected by breastforms.) Had chemo. Check it out, this stuff can throw a young woman right into menopause!!! That's some powerful drugs there! So what did it do to a postmenopausal old broad like me? It turned my hair into Jack Lemmon!!!!AHHHH!!! Well, ok I'm over that, after all the cancer center probably bought me another 15 years, if I make it that far. But, I'm telling you, I'm really good at styling a scarf these days! Huge improvement in my appearance. I'm in good shape, but I have arthritis, bad knees, and I can't always put in a full day in the yard. But im more comfortable in my skin than I ever was, I got where I needed to go, and that's more satisfying than anything! I say clear out the dead wood, give your energy to people who matter to you. I gave a lot of stuff away. Cashed in jewelry and paid off debt on the house. Money in the bank is an old broad's best friend!

He’s so devoted to me. In everything he does, he’d do it for me. But, feeling unwanted was difficult. Try to make little things important and special. Build a great friendship. Your wife needs to feel she’s attractive for her to have sex. If she feels loved, it means a lot don’t reject her back. You can build something great, if you too don’t feel rejected as a whole. And believe in a strong friendship. We have so much fun together.

I think I stopped wanting sex from having trust issues repeatedly and he told me he was sorry and would work on himself and never would. Just say what I wanted to hear. Also, he started having problems being able to have hard staying erect and I asked him to talk with his doctor without success I felt like I wasn't attracted to him anymore and started blaming myself. Sex felt like he started to lack in the floor play, and I started to dread having sex. He would say things to me to throw rude insults later and tell me he was sorry until the next time. He would involve my daughter talking about our sex life and I thought this was wrong on so many levels. He would not take accountability even after seeing a counselor and continued saying he was working on the problem. On the other hand, he was a great husband who would try everything else to make me happy and was a good person with some wonderful traits. He would make comments like we were just roommates with no intimacy. But I feel like he was missing the point of what intimacy meant! I would try telling him what I needed but wasn't heard. During covid the stress got worse being home everyday, no place to go life got worse and fights for worse . Then in October 2020 he passed away with no warning. I can't move on because I don't believe in myself and blame myself and have hugh trust issues I has childhood trauma sexual abuse, physical abuse and emotional abuse and my husband also had physical abuse and emotional abuse which I think was a big problem for both of us speaking about our relationship in a good positive healthy way. I love my husband and he was my best friend and we both had defects that I can't fix now and he died thinking I wanted a divorce and I truly didn't want only wanted to fix it and thought we had time working our issues. After he passed away I found out that he was speaking with a woman about our marriage problems and I felt betrayal and like it was a form of cheating on me. His sister told me that he wasn't cheating he just needed someone to take to. I still feel like this was wrong and if I would of been speaking with a man he didn't know would hurt him and he would feel the same. I haven't been able to move on and continue to blame myself.

After my wife walked in the kitchen one morning and said she agreed with the women at her work that if they never had sex again she wouldn’t miss it. That was THE worst thing she could have said to me. We had sex one more time and for the first time in my life, I had trouble keeping my erection. We had been married 20 years. I lost all desire to have sex with her. My sex drive didn’t let up and became more torment than anything. I grew up with older sisters and heard nonstop what trash men were. Her comment fit and seemed to make sense from a female perspective. I didn’t leave or stray but it’s been a lonely 20 years since that day.

If the conversation is all about politics, or what he wants to talk about, where is there room for "us", and for her. It appears the obsession to talk about politics over rules his wife's needs and their relationship. Politics seems to be the priority because that's all he talks about. Where is the intimacy in talking about politics? How does the conversation of politics make her feel loved? Asking, "How was your day?" and listening gives her the opportunity to share what's on her mind. If he really took that time to be still, shut up, and listen, she wouldn't have listed things she wished he would talk about because she would have felt him there "with" her and they would connect vs the disconnection she may be feeling right now. These are just my thoughts and what I see. Suewinters is the only one here that can say what she feels and needs. We cannot judge someone by what they feel because we have not experienced what they have experienced, in the way they experienced it. I sense from your comment to her, judgement.

So interesting to hear about your Dad's story from homicide detective to pastor, Dr. Delony! My father in-law went from being a police officer on the Fatal Accidents Investigations Unit (reconstructing how the accident occurred, writing the report, and notifying next of kin) and after being on the police force for 20 years he retired and became a clown and magician who worked in the local Children's hospital for another 20 years (just retired). Such a crazy life shift, but I think he needed to find ways to make light of dark situations. He's one of the greatest guys I know and I love hearing his stories from both careers. And our family LOVES when he tells jokes or does his magic tricks. Truly one of my favorite people ever 🙂 It sure makes up for having a Dad who could care less that my sister and I even exist.

Esther Perel is a woman, but I understand that people can have different experiences and reasons for stopping having sex.

Great conversation ❤ very well rounded

There is so much emphasis on sex all the time! People feel pressured to have it as if it was a matter of life and death! Relationships are so variable! Some need it a lot some don't! Why can't we accept that?

Stress, negative body image and at some point it’s not really that important to US -

Great podcast. Really enjoyed this one

Great open conversation

wow this is so interesting your testimony sounds very similar to mine on so many levels.

I’m glad you are doing this topic!! Recently I’ve been going through the same thing. My husband and I aren’t intimate with each other. And I want to know why. We’ve been together for 30 yrs. So I’m sure that has a big part in it. Maybe he’s not attracted to me anymore. Maybe I’m boring to him. Maybe I’m not exciting to him. Maybe I’m not good enough for him. Maybe he’s into someone else.

Maybe your husband has low testosterone. Maybe he’s worried about his health. He needs a complete physical with a colonoscopy, PSA testing, testosterone levels checked, thyroid levels checked. Low testosterone can mimic depression. Maybe he is unhappy with his work or career. A very wise career counselor told me that men’s egos are wrapped up in their jobs/careers. So if their jobs go bad then they look outside themselves for something or someone to blame. That is usually their wife. Sometimes their children, siblings, friends. It could be their church, house, neighborhood. Begin a conversation with your husband. Tell him how you feel and ask him the questions. You might find that he is worried about the very same things…that you are no longer attracted to him. And this is something we all seem to miss these days. Pray about it individually and together. I wish you all the best.

He should definitely have his testosterone levels checked. Also, if he’s working that much it could also lead to problems like erectile dysfunction and maybe he’s embarrassed to talk about it. This happened to my husband… just a thought. Prayers to you and your husband.☺️

@@susiekaiser1 This is a good response about the husband’s possible issues. But I disagree on how you totally invalidated her feelings. Without knowing why she feels this way.

Do you think Jesus is comfortable in His residence inside of us when we're watching foul things on the television or listening to foul music? "What goes into our eyes & into our ears gets into our hearts...isn't that a big point to this message? Just asking.. Doesn't your spirit feel uncomfortable?

I love Sean McDowell's take on this. Something to look into.

Really enjoyed your definition of trauma, the drip drip drip. Being a mom, I can relate you get the drip drip trying to keep everything in order and give attention where needed is constant, trying to be a good wife, maintaining relationships with all family and friends, sometimes leave you feeling like the life has been sucked out of you. Being honest with yourself and leaning on God helps. Reading all the Epistles Paul wrote is so refreshing, his eyes were always on God, he was thankful for all the people around him, he was encouraging, he let others know their value, and brutally honest when he needed to be. God always took care of him even in prison. ❤ If everyone would be the best version of themselves we would be heaven 😂😂 My favorite verse is, my grace is sufficent for thee, for my strength is made perfect in weakness. ❤❤

“You’re not enough but you can outrun it”. That’s real. In May family it was “you’re not enough but you can people please it away.”

menopause, getting older, being married almost 50 years (i'm 69), and having had sex with this beautiful man thousands times.. yes, on one hand i just didn't feel like 'doing it' anymore.. but MUCH more so, i wanted to see what intimacy and closeness and gentleness and kindness and tenderness.. COMMUNICATION.. FRIENDSHIP.. RELATIONSHIP.. looked like outside of sex as the seeming center of our emotional connection. and i have to say, don't ask me, but we are really really enjoying life together, possibly more than we ever have even. we're like two little kids just having a really really great time 😀

It’s not as uncommon as you think for pivot positions. I’ve met a few professionals in crime scene go into a place of grace and mercy to be compassionate

Thank you. You have changed my life for the better forever ❤️

Omg....yes, yes and yes! Even as an educated woman who believes in equality of the sexes, Ive never understood the battle for the pulpit when Paul says for the women to teach the young women how to be good wives (and presumably the men to teach young men how to be good husbands)....something there is a dearth of in the church, my flight or fight response to stress (or a sense of failure in achieving what I 'thought' marriage should be) maybe I wouldn't have run from three marriages and taken the Bibles definition of adultery literally...even though I was married by 'Bible believing pastors' who never questioned my previous divorces. I've had to go way back to listening to the old preachers...Spurgeon, Whitfield, Elisabeth Elliot to find faith in the scriptures without excuses and peace from regrets of the past (even understanding "there is now NO condemnation for those who are in Christ"), together with 12 step work which taught me a practical way to be a better person/Christian. In the States some churches are holding recovery groups using the scriptures that the 12 steps came out of and where you can have REAL conversations and support one another in action prayer. Unfortunately not here in UK but continuing in listening to selective preachers/podcasts and the inner working of the Holy Spirit, keeps me humble and away from the constant "self improvement" gurus the world has to offer...

I think the problem with a lot of organized religion, is we are not taught or encouraged to think and question. You can hear another way in this podcast how John challenges his students to think and question dogma. I admire your searching for answers. I made my mind up about a lot of things in the world before I was 6 years old. I knew then , the women's rabid movements were hypocritical and self destructive. Family and friends, in that order, were the most important thing in my life. I fell off my bearings going to school, getting jobs, getting good at hobbies, never seeing how more and more lost I had become. In retirement from salaried work, I realize these values I still hold. For me, healing has been about coming back to myself, and the relationship with G-d I always knew was there.

You wrote thus comment over a year ago but I just wanted to respond because I completely agree with listening to this older pastors and teachers. The church is afraid to preach boldly and the feminism movement has crept into the church. There is a really good radio station called BBN-Bible Broadcasting Network that you can listen to online or through tune in radio app that will ‘feed’ throughout the day. Pastors need to do better and warn people instead of comforting people!

Why don’t you start a group? Use the resources you liked. If you can’t facilitate it, find someone who can. Maybe God can use you to meet the need. Pray about it. We can do all things through Christ Who strengthens us.

great interview

We're on year 17, second marriage for both of us. I had a hysterectomy and a lot of family drama happened this past three years. I just haven't been in the mood. That doesn't end our marriage. We love each other and have talked about it. I will get back in the groove. 🤪😎🥰

I truly sympathize for hardships people have been through but it’s also important to note that “I’m just not in the mood” can be used to avoid doing anything for anniversary or Valentine’s Day. A lot of partners really don’t feel like doing anything on those occasions…they are just ways for card companies, florists, restaurants, and jewelers to take some of our hard earned money, if a person is just not in the mood for getting the card or the flowers or the restaurant meal, etc, I suppose it’s ok for them to do nothing. Same thing with Christmas. If I’m not in the mood can I just skip all the obligations of the season?

My wife I have had sex 3 times in the past 15 years. She never touches me. I'm almost to the point of crying and don't know what to do. She is 58 and I'm 51. Married 33 years. Feels like we are roommates, not husband and wife. She used to want it more than I did and couldn't keep her hands off me. She is sweet. We talk all the time and laugh. She's a loving wife and mother. I can tell she has absolutely no desire anymore and hasn't for many years. Her biggest love language is physical touch. I rub her back and lovingly touch her every day. I scratch her back every night to help her go to sleep. I'm very affectionate with my words and touch. I sometimes make lighthearted suggestive comments referring to sex and she smiles. I wish there was a pill that could take my desires away so it wouldn't be a struggle. I'm going insane. All these very powerful God given desires and no way to release them. Am I expecting too much to enjoy occasional sex with my wife? She does work out of our home managing a child care of 5 kids 5 days a week. I know she's tired every day and I get it. She works long hard days, cooks dinner, and other housework. I help her all I can with the work. I'm afraid she's lost her desire for me and doesn't respect me as a man and provider. Our children are nearly grown so it's not like there are little ones to tend to. She has to know my desire for her. I drop obvious hints but don't want to force her or be pushy. I respect the fact she's tired and works hard. She does a lot for our family. I'm considering going to counseling so I can at least have someone to open up to about it. Not sure how they can help though. I'm heartbroken.

The most beautiful and or intelligent woman can be at risk to lose a husband. Is it jealousy Is it the fact nothing can keep a man's attention for long...

I love your Mom's story!!

I can’t get that image out of my head now. Oh dear.

Sleep, depression, anxiety.

Wow ! layer by layer of practicality

I love driving . I grew up driving a quarter midget race car. I let people in front of me and not fight because it stops accidents and the road runs smoother.

32 years of wedded bliss and we haven't had sex for 4 or 5 years. I have gained a substantial amount of weight due to a back injury and just don't feel confident enough to be that intimate. We cuddle, kiss, share great moments of silliness, fun, deep thoughts, all of it. Our relationship is better than ever. I guess we are a unicorn, but I wouldn't trade what we have for all of the tea in China.

What a great interview. I have always loved John Crist’s humor! He is awesome! ❤️🙏

Sometimes when women have babies theyre getting up to babies in the night and theyre sleep deprived and tired. Tired women dont want sex theyre exhausted. If they had plenty of sleep and rest then they would probably want it.

Hi, I just wanted to say wow on so many levels. John's story about his marriage almost seemed like a copy of mine...but instead of him saying he wanted to fix the relationship he chose to divorce me. He had gotten sick and bedridden not even a year into us getting married, had tons of health issues in top of childhood PTSD (which he didn't real and tried hypnotherapy to treat PTSD -turns out its a horrible thing if its cptsd and not a singular event PTSD). He drank a lot, video games, always on the computer, would rather be playing with guys on the other side of the planet than in bed with me...

Some of us would rather be isolated now and are self isolating.
