Thank you for this information. Very informative and helpful

So many people in the comments section taking this personally and being offended.....if you folks listened to the duo's content, the majority focuses on gender-neutral principles that everyone can learn and take away from, and I imagine that Bringing Baby Home is similar to The Boy Crisis in highlighting the importance of fathers. It is a reality worth acknowledging that many women (especially in previous generations) were financially dependent on guys and have been raised to have to put the needs of their husbands or kids above their own, so sure, it's nice to have material directed towards guys, but even the Gottman's (and other material out there, if you care about material talking about men's needs and importance) address that. Even in this video, though, there's material that's equally applicable Plus, the book was John's idea, and he's a guy, and the biggest takeaway from the Gottmans' work (and couple's therapy) in general is to focus on what you can change and improve, and that's what he's doing.

I'm really glad Dr Gottman is sharing about the bit of how and why some guys have a lot more sex. There are many guys out there who could really take that to heart.

@ 30:23 The reason is: many people are unable to tolerate peace for very long. They prefer drama. I agree with Eckhart Tolle when he says that a part of us (which he calls the pain body) doesn't want things to work out. It's sad, but so very true. This is true for any kind of relationship. It doesn't make any sense to me why anyone would prefer conflict over peace, other than they're (A LOT people) are really F'd up.

However, is it the chicken, or the egg? Couples may start out in a relationship being loving and moving toward commitment, then one or the other puts other people/things before that relationship (parents, children (esp from prior relationship/marriages), jobs, etc) - which cultivates insecurity & eventually, resentment. Typically, new moms “reject” her partner/husband in lieu of the child, (but - fathers do it, too, which could be even more devastating to the partner/wife)…

Gottman's done some great work, but he's got a frame that puts women on a pedestal and everything has to revolve around her needs. The truth is that women know that they are (generally) more emotional, and men end up being buffers for their expressions. But, if as others have said, you maintain you're boundaries and acknowledge her emotions and separate them from the story, you can train them to be more responsible. Not only that, women will respect you more in these circumstances. I think this scenario doesn't enter into the research because it takes a lot of self awareness, maturity, strength and confidence. There are few men that can live up to this standard (and even fewer women). In the absence of these hyper-realized individuals, we're left with developing pandering skills, which is what Gottman advocates for. Using these combinations of words and techniques will keep you reasonably happy and together, but the next level is more self development so that you know exactly where you stand and aren't really thrown off balance when her emotions get the better of her.

You do know research isnt accurate

You said that you don’t understand why people don’t take their medicine and I don’t hear you understanding why some just refuse to keep taking meds. Why take something that doesn’t really address the real root problem so it doesn’t heal the body. Foods are a lot of the problem for the inflammation that many conditions have as a basic problem. Most Doctors have so little training in nutrition that they just demand that patients just take meds when they don’t know a better way. There are many other things that come into play on both sides but refuse to be a sheep who just follows without it being proved to me that it is the best way to go and that it will really help. There is so much more I could say but I want she’d a bit of light on why so many turn their back on many of the meds given in Western Medicine. I have been studying relationships since the early 1970’s and I have quite a story and my husband also but I am finding a few new ideas or new ways to approach issues. I am not done listening to what you and your wife are sharing so I am still sorting and seeing if any of the shoes are a new fit or a better fit . Thanks for sharing.

"most doctors have so little training in nutrition" In sharp contrast to you who is oh so knowledgeable about nutrition.

I really enjoy Dr. Gottman, however, the male host of this show made a ridiculous generalization about black fathers and black families that made me shut this whole thing off. I'll listen to Dr. Gottman somewhere else.

People are not taking medication because of all the negative side effects. If you feel worse after taking medication or were given ineffective medication, I wonder if everyone would continue taking them.

I have seen this problem with some men : They have huge egos and are closed as persons, and nobody wants to live with a closed person Also if a man has the playboy sindrome or is not loyal he has to stay single if he can't evolve. On the other I have seen this problem with some women : They have a kind of arrogance that since women know feelings better, they have nothing to learn from a man, and the man just has to do what these women say. If a woman has this type of arrogance she should stay single if she can't evolve. Nobody wants to live with an arrogant person. In a good relationship both women and men learn from each other and the direction for both is to strike and keep working at balance and doing what is right for both and finding compromises and if they can't agree on some reasonable compromise for both, they can separate Women are important and have feelings to be considerate to, but Men are important and have feelings to be considerate to In this we are the same, maybe these problems stem from this prejudice label that implies men think women are important just so they can make sex And this prejudice label that women think men are guilty because they only want sex and have no real feelings and thus the only solution is to obey women in everything This is not true so we need to evolve Opening the channels of comunication with courage is the solution We both can have deep feelings and can learn from each other how to evolve We are a beautiful work in progress: Enjoy the learning and the love ❤

What do you do if your spouse insists that you've done something hurtful when in reality you have not? Is only saying "I'm sorry" really helpful then to a relationship? How can it be if you are living a lie?

Don't look to him or anyone because no one and I mean no one knows what makes 2 people in a relationship work or not. There are no experts here. We all want and need different things in our relationships. You can take their opinions with a grain of salt

The book has been very useful for me and I am grateful I read it But on the negative side two tips and advises are pushy and in one advice a tip not sensible to men which if said to a woman would be absurd. ( Tips and advises should be suggested to the reader, not pushed ) Making compromises is more right and if two people can't compromise they can separate I wrote it on the review and they censored it Red flag

I think the answer to Gottman’s mysterious question goes back to a lack of self love and discipline.
