There are nuances woven into this concept. Women can be physical, but not at the **extent** that men are (generally speaking, variations and exceptions to the rule exist). A quote I really love: "Men love with their eyes, women love with their ears" It doesn't mean women can't also appreciate the physical, it means that the way in which we experience the physical differs. That difference matters! It deserves acknowledgment, because it's going to change the dynamic of the relationship.

As a married man, I hate to be the bearer of bad news. Everyone isn’t cut out for marriage regardless of gender. It takes an exceptional person to get married and remain successfully married. The marriage and divorce rate numbers are accurate and it takes a special person to indefinitely pair-bond with another person. I pray for the best outcome for everyone. Honestly, there are some great people out there, but they are not great for marriage. God bless 🙏🏾

I love what you said. However I don't think it takes an exceptional person as much as it takes a willing person. Married people have to be willing to sacrifice, to honor, to submit...etc. When there is no longer a willingness that's when the door opens for just about anything to happen, especially cheating. I whole heartedly agree that marriage isn't for everyone. It especially isn't for people who feel that their perfect and won't make any horrific choices ever. Marriage is making yourself exceptionally vulnerable to 1 person on every level. That's one of the most difficult yet beautiful things that anyone can experience. I by no means condone cheating or any other behaviors that could potentially ruin a marriage.

Seems like she gave up on him because of something he’s not telling. He wanted to hurt his wife because he felt neglected and he knew the other woman would tell her again. He knew what he was doing. It was calculated. If he wanted to divorce with grace, he should have divorced without cheating. He sounds very dependent on women for fulfillment and purpose.

There was nothing for her to fight for. You fought against her, and not for her. There is such a big disconnect in how men and women think.

It’s simply human nature. It’s actually impossible for one person to “stop” temptation to exist for another person. Many gorgeous and successful women and women have been cheated on. Many spiritually minded folks have cheated. It’s because sex and emotional attachments are extremely tempting. When you are in a relationship there will inevitably become times when you become vulnerable to temptation. Any other belief on this subject is pure fairytale fantasy. Then there are some people who just enjoy a variety of sexual partners but due to social pressures (family, religion, economic necessity) get married. I’m an older woman who wants you young women to face the realities of relationships.

He had a lacks of confidence and having other women flirting with him made him feel good about himself. He was very handsom and intelligent but he felt like I was more beautiful and more intelligent than he was. He cheated with women that were not intelligent and not too beautiful so he felt superior and good about himself. It was not because his sexual desire was not met.

I've been there but not married. Just 6 years wasted. I don't think he thought I was better looking than him because he was bodybuilding when we met and I was losing weight but still chubby. However it was like everyone I found out about has less interest in him than me and less of something else I have without having more "things". It always would be they made him feel desired with novelty, they made him feel needed with objective power disparity, they didn't pay him attention so they couldn't catch he wasn't the man he wanted to be know as. Crazy thing, he could have been happier and everything he was pretending to be but he would rather lie, cheat, stress, underachieve based on his goals not mine, etc. He used sex as a control mechanism and a litmus test for what type of woman they will be: a safe tool or a risky plaything. Neither are valuable positions but both are needed to plaster over issues he will not handle and that will continue to undermine him. Anyone like that needs therapy and alone romantically. Although my ex lied to everyone even his family but again if they paid him mind they could catch inconsistencies and also cries for help because that's what he's looking for: love and attention from them beyond the surface.

I was with him until I heard his contradiction about his wife not fighting for the marriage because she never fully opened herself to him. Earlier on, he mentioned how being a husband is the head of the home so isn’t he to blame for the wife never fully opening up? How do you expect your wife to fully open up to you when you cheated on her prior to your marriage? As the husband and the head, how did he lead with vulnerability and trust that made it easier for his wife to truly be vulnerable with him? His wife was smart to never have fully open up to him. Men like him can destroy women.

It's like another way to manipulate women into thinking they're the problem when their man cheats. Also, it seems like another form of trying to get women to sympathize with a broken male perspective. Which, to me, may keep women stuck in a compassion-harm cycle.

He has been cheating on his ex wife even before they were married. And for him to not fight for his marriage whole heartedly after breaking her heart multiple times says a lot! Especially when he expected her to fight for him after everything he put her through. Make it make sense please! Lots of minupulatiom on his end! He has the balls to go in front of millions of people to simply show that he contradicts himself. Oh Lord please have mercy on his soul.

A wayward should heal themselves but not at the cost of another person. To me, its like he didn't even really try to save his marriage.

How are you the head but you never led in the way of trust and integrity so that his wife can fully become open to him.

I feel the same way. He is expressing what a lot of men go through, but would never admit. So many of these comments analyzed everything he said and labeled him a bunch of negative things, including how they think he has not changed and is still a cheater. But it does not matter if he's changed or not. The point of this interview is for women to listen, learn and apply what he said as observational tools to use when dating or in a relationship.

This interview made me literally sick to my stomach! This is narcissistic crazy-making at it's finest! Should be titled, "Introduction to Darvo". I don't have to imagine what his ex-wife had to live with. I was married to a narcissistic serial cheater for 12 years. Don't be fooled people, he's not being "transparent" because of an honest desire to take accountability. He's "glorying in his shame" and monetizing it to his advantage. At about 2 minutes into this interview, I started feeling like something was "off" about this man. Then came the circular speaking and contradictions. I've learned the hard way to trust my gut. His ex-wife wanted a relationship that was deeper than just sex. She tried to show him that with the feather incident. He flat out dismissed her attempt to draw him into a vulnerable and deep intimate relationship because he just wanted to get to the "sex". THEN he accuses HER of not being a "safe place"! Of not meeting HIS needs! He first says that the women he cheated with meant nothing to him, that he really only wanted his wife. He claims to have cheated because his wife never fully surrendered her heart to him. Yet, he was fine with casual, non-committal sex. I call b.s., blame-shifting, gaslighting and a WHOLE lot of ego. And the final narcissistic injury was that she didn't want to fight for you. Why would she? Someone that's truly taking accountability would understand the damage they caused and be willing to accept ANY consequences that came as a result. He expected her to "not want to lose him"? Wtf? Did he care about losing her every time he cheated on her? Such hypocrisy. Be careful what you listen to, because this is a wolf in sheep's clothing.

I would have no respect for a man who cheats and so love would be difficult to be had with a man like that. A man like that would be showing me he is not worthy of me, I would thank him for showing me who he is and move on. I find it baffling that some women stay with men that cheat. They are in fact teaching these men that they will settle for so little, that it makes no difference how they are treated. And as he admitted that if his wife cheated on him, he wouldn't be as understanding and yet he expected the wife to be forgiving towards him. How amazingly selfish. Great conversation Lisa. I enjoyed Laterras' honesty and transparency, but less so the double standards which he seemed to own up to to a certain extent.

She was forgiving and giving him a chance. Had she cheated he would not have taken her back. She is absolutely right.

I can see how you’re saying this, and he could have been better with explaining it. I follow his podcast. The key he was saying is that they didn’t communicate about their needs. Their needs weren’t being met, so the cycle kept going. He lacked clarity and self awareness when he met her and also did hold to his needs when she showed she wasn’t that type. This is a problem many people go through even without cheating. I have been cheated on and it was a horrible experience because the narcissist blamed me for everything when I knew nothing. This example is nowhere near that energy. He has taken accountability but TOTALLY could have been better explaining it in that section which I agree with.

I think the same thing however the way you worded that I'm seeing it at another vantage point. As much as i hate to say this I believe a person is not trustworthy unless they can truly love themselves (healthy self-esteem, self-acceptance, and most importantly self- worth) because if not the forward flow of energy will reverse and the energy will become "perverse" and without the self worth and self confidence in overcoming emotions and inner turmoil it will now become very dysfunctional because the person either isnt able to (doesn't know how, doesn't have enough self awareness, and lacks integrity) or isnt willing to (not worth the effort) it will create many cracks in the foundation, in the walls and the pressure will come out in all sorts of ways. Someone with low self worth will sabotage themselves and their partner. Interesting.. An important part is he went from guilt and shame and it flipped to anger and pride. That was the moment it all changed in this specific scenerio. He didn't deal with the guit and shame and how he got there in the first place (important talks to be had in the relationship) and once she didn't fulfill the story he had in his mind thinking he was going to get scolded (mother issue? Not sure) and she was understanding and considerate about the shower thing. He in an instant flipped to anger/resentment/ rightousness/pride. That IS significant. Undealt shame turns to anger. So even though he no longer had a reason to be ashamed since he didn't process it it turned to anger. And I think also he was angry because the very things he didn't talk to her about that then influenced his decision to do the ky shower he felt unheard and uncared for (similar to how woman can be when we think men should already know whats on our mind so we dont have to say it out loud.) I think he was indignant about her reaction.. as if he thought she was downgrading his inner hostility he was building up towards her that she didn't even know about because he never addressed it. This goes to show how vital being able to talk about things with fair play (there should be communication rules to talking about hot topics so its not a battle field) and self-worth and being able to successfully process uncomfortable emotions is. *Deep sigh*

You crazy …!…that’s pride right there….who are you ..or any woman to feel as if if a man is weak or not perfect you gotta leave him…that’s the princess syndrome and is fuelled by narcissism …”I have to have the perfect man cos I’m so wonderful”..!!! Also I think people are way to sexualised ..especially in America…it’s a bondage

If you fail to forgive you give the person who wronged you tremendous power over you. If you fail to forgive, you will never heal and this will prevent you from having a successful relationship in the future with anyone else. Forgiveness is not weakness but strength.

It sounds like neither of them were sexually satisfied.. I know what that is like to be disappointed because you are always doing it the way they like it. It gets old and you start to resent your partner when it can only be done their way.

As a feminine, lgbt, androgynous male...who's a hopeless romantic when it comes to being attracted to masculine men....I COMPLETELY AGREE. It's all a social construct...that masculine men attempt use to their advantage for manipulation...to continue their poor, low-vibrational, "cornsick" behavior. As a male myself-I know for a fact that is not true. Men are not "physical" or "primal" beings...men are completely capable of being committed to one person in a loving, monogamous relationship. Men are completely capable of sexual discipline-in fact they even have much more intense, memorable, better orgasms....only having sex once every week, or other week. While being more productive in every other aspect of life. Speaking as a male who has a prostate(male g spot).

In the beginning he said it was only physical with the other women and that he could care less and later he said it wasn´t just physical but that it was about vulnerability and complained that his wife wasn´t vulnerable enough with him and that he went to the other women to get that type of connection. So what is then? Gaslight much?

He was opening up about the complexity of his personal reasoning for cheating, which is a different thing than how a man perceives sex with the woman he wants above all others, vs just any woman he can have a physical experience with. He was attempting to fill a void, using the physical act of sex. Obviously it's not going to, and lead to him being worse off. This entire video is him going into depth about that

@@eesynopsis7393 How is shift blaming "going into depth"? There's a clear difference between someone explaining 'I am the cause of my failed marriage here are the reasons why' vs 'my wife's lack of sex or caring I masterbated is why I did x,y,z' WORDING IS SO IMPORTANT in when remaining accountable! Instead of saying I'm at fault - he continuously shift blames on her or atempts to justified his lack of morals. This man is not self aware - his therapist did a sh-t job of helping him heal.

Thank you for clarifying where I contributed. My break up wasn’t all my man’s fault. The cheating was, but not what lead up to it. Meryl Streep in “It’s Complicated” said it best. Something to the effect of (I didn’t have to acknowledge my failure in the divorce) “Because I didn’t have to when you cheated.” That sticks.

People cheat because they are unhappy in their relationships and lack emotional maturity. They are unwilling to let go of a relationship they really want to get out of, for all kind of reasons, particularly failure, guilt and shame, selfishness and Financial insecurities.

8 minutes in & I can tell by his facial reactions - the remorse is not there. He talks about not blaming his partner initially (that it was an internal issue) & then goes into how his wife didn't want to have sex or they didn't discuss frequency. That's still shift blaming!!! If he dated his wife for 6 years & cheated during that that time frame too - their foundation was never solid. It's funny to me how he can claim Christian views but be a cheater since the beginning. Pretty hypocritical. When he talked about the other woman - he smiled - almost grinning at the experience. This is what real unremorseful cheaters do. There would be no smiling or grins over past actions. Where is the pain in his story? He talks about shame like it's cloak of defense rather than it being a real & raw thing he did. I feel awful for his wife.
