The fact that you think this is “more common” with women is the reason I want you to have more conversations with people in relationships.
Don’t just rely on what you see or hear on the media. Sit with people and actually listen.
And for accountability and agency, I’m certain that you know that women have been on the receiving end of being held accountable for most issues in their relationships for decades.
Glad you finally get my point. There is no universal fix for a sexless marriage.
Every relationship has its unique peculiarities and challenges, so in some, Mr Nice Guy could be at fault, and in others, Mrs Nice Woman could be at fault.
This brings us all back to the importance of having uncomfortable conversations and “actually” listening to each other.
Do not listen to gather more armor for the battle, but to actually hear what each partner is saying and work on that.
@Derrick_Monnie@nicoleg77126@marriedmn If you have conversations with enough men and women, you’ll see that initiating this conversation is not the issue.
After the conversation, are follow-up actions taken? Or are these conversations initiated, just for the sake of it?
Why is every action by a man somehow the result of their woman's preceding actions or lack there of, but any adverse action by a woman is her fault, only?
No accountability for men? No agency?
When you answer your own question, you would understand why this would always be a two-way street.
Would you rather have a partner who provides everything but doesn’t understand you emotionally, or a partner who understands you deeply but struggles financially?
Everything you are “supposed to do as a man” or everything your partner wants you to do???
Truth is, you can do one million things you think your partner needs, but are they really what they want or actually need???
This is where having difficult conversations in relationships come in.
Does betrayal begin when something physical happens?
Or can it begin much earlier, when someone knowingly starts crossing boundaries they wouldn’t want their partner to see?
A friendship isn’t automatically an affair.
Privacy isn’t automatically secrecy.
And relationship problems don’t automatically cause infidelity.
But boundaries matter.
Where do you draw the line?

We’re just getting started.
Your partner is hiding their phone.
They turn it face-down when you walk into the room.
They take it everywhere.
They’re suddenly protective of it.
Red flag? 🚩
Maybe.
But before you call it cheating, ask these 3 questions. 🧵
The goal isn’t to become a detective in your own relationship.
It’s to become better at recognising:
patterns
secrecy
boundaries
emotional disconnection
