5.777 - 16.971 Bree

How can my husband and I resolve our conflict over sex frequency with our busy life? We were arguing about this issue, right? And my husband was like, just call Dr. John.

He has to grow. I'm not going to swear on the show. He's got to grow up. What in the world is going on? This is John with the Dr. John Deloney Show, taking calls from real people from all over the planet. We're trying to figure out what's the next right move in their relationships, in their mental and emotional health, with their kids, with their marriages, wherever people find themselves.

47.194 - 66.017 Dr. John Delony

That's what this show is about. For two decades, I've been sitting with hurting people. I've got two PhDs. I've been doing this academically, and more importantly, I've been doing it with real people. for years and years and years. People who I think mostly are trying to do the best they can with the tools they got. And they have found themselves in a messy, messy situation.

66.237 - 89.374 Dr. John Delony

And they just want to know, hey, will you listen? Will you sit with me? Will you help me figure out what to do next? That's what this show is all about. If you want to join me on the show, I'd love to have you 1-844-693-3291. If you want to call and leave a voice message and the Kelly and her overlords will go through the calls. And that's actually Kelly and Taylor. I just, I don't know.

90.214 - 108.9 Dr. John Delony

And yes, we do take calls from all over the planet, all kinds of different countries, people writing in and calling in and being on the show. I'd love to have all of you. So thank you so, so, so, so, so much.

109.5 - 115.402 Dr. John Delony

All right, let's go out to my hometown H town and talk to B R double E. What's up Bree?

117.236 - 118.337 Bree

Hi, John. How are you?

118.537 - 119.518 Dr. John Delony

I'm a mess this morning.

119.778 - 127.706 Bree

How are you? I'm doing all right. I'm doing all right. So I'm feeling a little nervous, honestly. I didn't think I would feel that way.

Chapter 2: What are the emotional challenges behind mismatched sexual desires in marriage?

2001.668 - 2026.367 Dr. John Delony

What's the deeper thing? I don't think this is about money. I think it's... Is your house a mess? Is she just not doing anything? Let me ask you this way. Is she a woman you no longer respect? I think it's getting there. I think you're there. I think so. I'm not hating on you. That would be fair. If you have a person who just is no interest in building something with her husband...

0

2029.249 - 2051.982 Dr. John Delony

Like no interest in building a life together, but who just puts the car in park and just sits in the driveway. I'm not hating on you. I want you to hear the futility of the way you've tried to do it because you do what most of us do. You went through the ends of the earth, all the tools in your toolkit. You've been trying, right? I have to do everything but the kitchen sink.

2052.243 - 2060.131 Dr. John Delony

Yeah, don't do that because you'll go to jail. So... the bigger question is why has she, I guess she never even opted into this deal.

0

2061.952 - 2076.225 Corvin

Yeah. I mean, it's funny too. Cause when I was talking to her dad about a blessing for us to get married, he looked me right in the eyes and he says, you know, she needs a lot of support. Right. And I didn't, I mean, I understood what he meant to an extent, but I didn't know that he meant this. And,

2077.498 - 2089.642 Corvin

For her, I think it's just always the expectation that somebody else is supposed to take care of my finances. And then, you know, it took me this many years to realize that she meant that. Like, you take care of it. And I just feel, I feel abandoned.

2089.902 - 2090.142 Dr. John Delony

Yeah.

2090.443 - 2090.743 Corvin

You know?

2090.923 - 2095.604 Dr. John Delony

But this, what else besides finances? Where else is she, is she not with you?

2096.845 - 2106.088 Corvin

No, besides that, I mean, the place is clean. We're not struggling financially. I do well enough to take care of us. But the thing is, we're getting older. I mean, retirement's coming up. What are we going to do?
