00:00:15,136 --> 00:00:17,345
We got in a big
fight on Saturday.
2
00:00:17,637 --> 00:00:18,345
So tell me.
3
00:00:18,637 --> 00:00:19,720
[laughs]
4
00:00:20,053 --> 00:00:22,011
We were in bed
5
00:00:22,011 --> 00:00:23,637
and it was
really early,
6
00:00:23,637 --> 00:00:24,929
like, maybe
6:00 a.m. --
7
00:00:25,387 --> 00:00:26,679
-6:00 a.m.
-Mm-hm.
8
00:00:26,970 --> 00:00:28,970
I got up to go
to the bathroom,
9
00:00:28,970 --> 00:00:30,387
and when I
came back
10
00:00:30,387 --> 00:00:31,512
Lauren was,
like,
11
00:00:31,845 --> 00:00:33,303
on my side
of the bed.
12
00:00:33,637 --> 00:00:34,428
I just said,
13
00:00:34,428 --> 00:00:35,053
"Scoot over."
14
00:00:35,679 --> 00:00:36,595
And...
15
00:00:36,595 --> 00:00:38,887
she, like,
kind of moved
16
00:00:39,387 --> 00:00:40,553
and then I was
like, "You're --
17
00:00:40,553 --> 00:00:42,136
like, you're on
my pillow."
18
00:00:42,553 --> 00:00:44,387
and so I, like,
got my --
19
00:00:44,387 --> 00:00:45,387
she, like,
lifted up,
20
00:00:45,387 --> 00:00:46,387
I got my
pillow,
21
00:00:46,387 --> 00:00:47,762
I put my head
on the pillow,
22
00:00:47,762 --> 00:00:48,720
and then she put
her pillow down.
23
00:00:48,720 --> 00:00:50,303
And I was like, "Now
you're on my head."
24
00:00:50,970 --> 00:00:53,595
And she yelled
and was like --
25
00:00:53,595 --> 00:00:54,804
Yelled saying...?
26
00:00:55,095 --> 00:00:57,220
"You're all the way on
that side of the bed
27
00:00:57,220 --> 00:00:59,011
an-- over in
your corner
28
00:00:59,011 --> 00:01:00,804
and I woke up on this
side of the bed
29
00:01:00,804 --> 00:01:02,136
and now I just want
to snuggle you."
30
00:01:02,595 --> 00:01:03,762
And I said, "Okay,
if I'm on the --
31
00:01:04,053 --> 00:01:04,762
in the corner,
32
00:01:05,720 --> 00:01:06,804
you don't get to just come
and take my corner."
33
00:01:06,804 --> 00:01:08,679
-Mm-hm.
-And then, she got...
34
00:01:08,679 --> 00:01:10,428
real mad...and...
35
00:01:10,428 --> 00:01:11,845
told me to
go fuck off
36
00:01:11,845 --> 00:01:12,679
and grabbed
her pillows
37
00:01:12,679 --> 00:01:13,595
and slept on
the couch
38
00:01:13,595 --> 00:01:14,762
for the rest
of the morning.
39
00:01:16,387 --> 00:01:19,762
♪groovy bass

00:01:32,470 --> 00:01:33,345

41
00:01:35,261 --> 00:01:36,220
[cat meows]
42
00:01:43,387 --> 00:01:45,553
I had woken up and
went to the restroom...
43
00:01:46,178 --> 00:01:49,470
and I hadn't really
gotten to see her
44
00:01:49,470 --> 00:01:51,011
or connect
with her.
45
00:01:51,011 --> 00:01:53,178
And so I think I was
really craving, like,
46
00:01:53,178 --> 00:01:55,762
just some physical
touch and attention --
47
00:01:55,762 --> 00:01:56,804
[Orna] Mm-hm.
48
00:01:56,804 --> 00:01:59,720
[Lauren] and so I got
back into bed and I...
49
00:02:00,053 --> 00:02:02,679
-snuggled up to her.
-Mm-hm.
50
00:02:02,679 --> 00:02:04,053
I will add
that,
51
00:02:04,053 --> 00:02:04,929
when we go
to sleep,
52
00:02:04,929 --> 00:02:06,261
we snuggle
every night.
53
00:02:06,261 --> 00:02:07,720
But it's been
a thing.
54
00:02:07,720 --> 00:02:09,845
-It has been a thing about --
-Through our relationship...
55
00:02:09,845 --> 00:02:10,887
that she's been
like, "Get away."
56
00:02:10,887 --> 00:02:11,679
Like -- like --
57
00:02:11,679 --> 00:02:12,929
Oh, come on.
58
00:02:12,929 --> 00:02:14,011
-I've never said --
-Well, no, not "Get away."
59
00:02:14,011 --> 00:02:15,011
-But it's been like --
-Wait.
60
00:02:15,011 --> 00:02:17,220
Let's do each
their own version.
61
00:02:17,220 --> 00:02:17,637
Okay.
62
00:02:18,261 --> 00:02:20,261
Say your version
unedited.
63
00:02:21,261 --> 00:02:23,220
I-- I-- I feel
it is like...
64
00:02:23,679 --> 00:02:25,512
"Get away, I need
like, my space."
65
00:02:25,512 --> 00:02:26,512
-Mm-hm.
-Or...
66
00:02:26,512 --> 00:02:28,261
perhaps I
am, like,
67
00:02:28,261 --> 00:02:29,804
scooting over
in the night --
68
00:02:29,804 --> 00:02:30,929
-Mm-hm.
-but...
69
00:02:30,929 --> 00:02:33,136
She -- like, no matter
where we start off the --
70
00:02:33,136 --> 00:02:34,303
the evening at,
71
00:02:34,303 --> 00:02:36,261
when I wake up,
I kind of, like...
72
00:02:36,887 --> 00:02:38,845
-want to be near her.
-Mm-hm.
73
00:02:38,845 --> 00:02:41,220
I think she'll say
that, like, she said...
74
00:02:41,845 --> 00:02:42,887
to scoot over
in, like,
75
00:02:42,887 --> 00:02:44,428
-a normal tone --
-Mm-hm.
76
00:02:44,428 --> 00:02:46,553
It didn't really feel
like a normal tone.
77
00:02:46,553 --> 00:02:47,887
It felt like...?
78
00:02:47,887 --> 00:02:49,637
-Rejection.
-Mm-hm.
79
00:02:49,887 --> 00:02:51,428
So let's -- so
just -- just --
80
00:02:51,428 --> 00:02:53,679
just for the sake of,
like, understanding
81
00:02:53,679 --> 00:02:56,303
the subtext of these
kind of dynamics,
82
00:02:56,303 --> 00:02:59,011
if you had to say
what it feels like
83
00:02:59,011 --> 00:03:01,553
if you go a notch
under, like,
84
00:03:01,553 --> 00:03:02,970
the rational
part of it,
85
00:03:02,970 --> 00:03:03,970
wh-- what --
86
00:03:03,970 --> 00:03:06,220
what's goin' on
there for you?
87
00:03:09,595 --> 00:03:10,553
It's like...
88
00:03:10,553 --> 00:03:11,595
God damn it,
I'm just, like --
89
00:03:11,595 --> 00:03:12,387
I just want
90
00:03:12,387 --> 00:03:14,470
-to be near you --
-Mm-hm.
91
00:03:15,387 --> 00:03:16,553
and you're,
like,
92
00:03:16,553 --> 00:03:18,095
-pushing me away --
-Mm-hm.
93
00:03:18,095 --> 00:03:20,595
and I f-- I feel
like I get, like...
94
00:03:20,887 --> 00:03:22,637
-snapped at --
-Mm-hm.
95
00:03:22,637 --> 00:03:23,303
As if...?
96
00:03:24,387 --> 00:03:25,178
I don't know.
97
00:03:25,178 --> 00:03:26,303
Like, maybe
that I'm...
98
00:03:26,804 --> 00:03:28,220
selfish or...
99
00:03:32,553 --> 00:03:34,303
-too much?
-too much.
100
00:03:34,887 --> 00:03:36,303
-Maybe.
-Mm-hm.
101
00:03:36,303 --> 00:03:37,762
Like I'm, like,
smothering, or --
102
00:03:37,762 --> 00:03:38,887
[Orna] Mm-hm.
103
00:03:39,178 --> 00:03:40,095
Okay, like...
104
00:03:40,095 --> 00:03:41,595
what did you hear
Lauren say?
105
00:03:41,595 --> 00:03:43,428
What's Lauren's
ultimate experience
106
00:03:43,428 --> 00:03:44,762
of this
kind of --
107
00:03:44,762 --> 00:03:45,804
That I was
attacking her
108
00:03:45,804 --> 00:03:46,970
first thing in
the morning
109
00:03:46,970 --> 00:03:48,929
for trying to
snuggle me.
110
00:03:49,512 --> 00:03:50,345
No.
111
00:03:51,762 --> 00:03:53,345
That's not what
she said.
112
00:03:55,637 --> 00:03:56,720
What I heard,
113
00:03:56,720 --> 00:03:58,595
an-- and tell me if I'm
capturing something,
114
00:03:58,595 --> 00:04:00,512
what I heard
Lauren say is...
115
00:04:00,970 --> 00:04:03,720
"I'm coming to
you with my...
116
00:04:05,053 --> 00:04:07,345
want for love
and affection...
117
00:04:08,720 --> 00:04:11,845
and you're rejecting me
as if I'm too much.
118
00:04:11,845 --> 00:04:13,011
It is too much.
119
00:04:13,011 --> 00:04:13,970
Hold on,
hold on.
120
00:04:13,970 --> 00:04:15,178
D-- don't --
stay --
121
00:04:15,178 --> 00:04:16,887
you're moving
back to yourself.
122
00:04:17,512 --> 00:04:20,053
You know, this -- this
business of, like,
123
00:04:20,053 --> 00:04:22,261
coming close
to someone
124
00:04:22,261 --> 00:04:24,720
is a place of, like,
great vulnerability.
125
00:04:25,220 --> 00:04:27,637
To feel like you're
doing it wrong there
126
00:04:27,637 --> 00:04:29,261
has the potential
to be, like,
127
00:04:29,261 --> 00:04:30,762
deeply wounding.
128
00:04:31,053 --> 00:04:32,428
-Mm-hm.
-Humiliating.
129
00:04:34,887 --> 00:04:35,804
But is that --
130
00:04:35,804 --> 00:04:37,011
Lauren, is that --
131
00:04:37,011 --> 00:04:39,136
is there more
to this?
132
00:04:40,637 --> 00:04:41,679
Yeah, I mean,
obviously,
133
00:04:41,679 --> 00:04:42,720
it has to be.
134
00:04:43,011 --> 00:04:45,136
Like, the way
I reacted...
135
00:04:45,679 --> 00:04:46,387
was...
136
00:04:47,470 --> 00:04:48,679
over-the-top.
137
00:04:49,011 --> 00:04:50,553
[Sarah] This wasn't
even the fight.
138
00:04:50,553 --> 00:04:52,428
The fight lasted
all fuckin' day --
139
00:04:52,428 --> 00:04:53,804
-Mm-hm.
-because...
140
00:04:53,804 --> 00:04:55,679
she chose to, like,
get super angry
141
00:04:55,679 --> 00:04:56,887
-Mm-hm.
-and just keep...
142
00:04:56,887 --> 00:04:57,804
digging
143
00:04:57,804 --> 00:05:00,011
and start bringing
up past shit.
144
00:05:00,011 --> 00:05:01,762
And all I had
been saying was
145
00:05:02,053 --> 00:05:03,095
"Gimme some
space."
146
00:05:03,762 --> 00:05:05,762
-I mean, I don't --
-It feels like...?
147
00:05:06,053 --> 00:05:07,470
She's ignoring...
148
00:05:07,470 --> 00:05:08,929
-my boundary.
-Mm-hm.
149
00:05:09,345 --> 00:05:12,637
And it feels like she's
ignoring it because...
150
00:05:12,637 --> 00:05:14,053
'Cause she just wants
what she wants
151
00:05:14,053 --> 00:05:15,887
and she doesn't give
a shit where I'm at.
152
00:05:15,887 --> 00:05:17,178
-I see.
-Or what I want.
153
00:05:18,512 --> 00:05:19,345
[Orna]
Mm-hm.
154
00:05:25,220 --> 00:05:27,553
I mean, it's indicative
of a bigger problem.
155
00:05:27,553 --> 00:05:28,804
Like, this
is...
156
00:05:31,178 --> 00:05:32,845
how a lot of things
operate -- [laughs]
157
00:05:32,845 --> 00:05:34,345
in our
relationship.
158
00:05:35,804 --> 00:05:36,970
Meaning?
159
00:05:37,261 --> 00:05:38,637
There has
been, like,
160
00:05:38,637 --> 00:05:40,595
this sense of entitlement
in the past...
161
00:05:41,136 --> 00:05:41,845
that we --
162
00:05:42,845 --> 00:05:44,804
has been, like, at the
core of our problems.
163
00:05:45,303 --> 00:05:47,220
-And --
-Tell me about that.
164
00:05:48,303 --> 00:05:49,553
[Sarah] Lauren is
the breadwinner
165
00:05:49,553 --> 00:05:50,804
in our family.
166
00:05:51,428 --> 00:05:53,220
In the very beginning,
it was like...
167
00:05:53,720 --> 00:05:55,970
I was her assistant,
because...
168
00:05:55,970 --> 00:05:57,053
I didn't
have...
169
00:05:57,804 --> 00:05:58,553
Like...
170
00:05:58,553 --> 00:06:00,470
I was...figuring
my shit out,
171
00:06:00,762 --> 00:06:01,428
job-wise.
172
00:06:02,470 --> 00:06:04,053
It's not like we had a
conversation and I'm like,
173
00:06:04,053 --> 00:06:06,512
-"You're my assistant."
-No, I didn't say that.
174
00:06:07,303 --> 00:06:08,845
But that's how
you treated me.
175
00:06:09,804 --> 00:06:13,220
But since you're not the one
making money, then...
176
00:06:13,220 --> 00:06:14,887
-Then I should be doing --
-you should help.
177
00:06:14,887 --> 00:06:16,261
It was expected
that, like,
178
00:06:16,261 --> 00:06:17,887
I was gonna get up every
morning before her
179
00:06:17,887 --> 00:06:19,720
and make the coffee
and give it to her
180
00:06:19,720 --> 00:06:21,095
and when she came
home from work,
181
00:06:21,095 --> 00:06:22,845
I was gonna have
dinner on the table,
182
00:06:22,845 --> 00:06:23,804
and, like...
183
00:06:23,804 --> 00:06:26,220
I was gonna do all
the laundry, and like --
184
00:06:26,220 --> 00:06:28,345
that I was gonna be
there to do everything.
185
00:06:28,345 --> 00:06:29,679
I -- I don't think
that's totally true.
186
00:06:30,220 --> 00:06:31,595
I think
there --
187
00:06:31,595 --> 00:06:33,428
there was a bit of...
188
00:06:33,428 --> 00:06:34,303
like...
189
00:06:34,637 --> 00:06:36,845
I'm trying to...
190
00:06:37,136 --> 00:06:39,053
help us survive
and, like --
191
00:06:39,679 --> 00:06:40,970
-By making money.
-get this new job...
192
00:06:40,970 --> 00:06:43,387
and make
money and...
193
00:06:43,387 --> 00:06:44,428
I needed help.
194
00:06:47,762 --> 00:06:49,512
We have
struggled with...
195
00:06:50,845 --> 00:06:51,679
this.
196
00:06:51,679 --> 00:06:54,220
I felt, to an
extent, that...
197
00:06:54,845 --> 00:06:57,929
yes, if someone's going
to sacrifice some time...
198
00:06:58,970 --> 00:07:00,887
it makes
sense for...
199
00:07:01,178 --> 00:07:02,553
the person
who's not...
200
00:07:03,595 --> 00:07:04,929
-earning --
-Mm-hm.
201
00:07:05,595 --> 00:07:06,595
close --
like --
202
00:07:06,595 --> 00:07:07,428
close to
as much --
203
00:07:07,428 --> 00:07:09,011
like, not even
close to, like --
204
00:07:09,011 --> 00:07:10,220
who's not --
205
00:07:10,220 --> 00:07:10,887
in the grand
scheme of things
206
00:07:10,887 --> 00:07:12,136
wasn't earning --
207
00:07:12,136 --> 00:07:15,512
wasn't keeping us afloat,
even in the -- the slightest
208
00:07:15,970 --> 00:07:17,887
that that --
that made sense.
209
00:07:17,887 --> 00:07:18,887
I have --
210
00:07:19,220 --> 00:07:20,136
But there's
not --
211
00:07:20,136 --> 00:07:21,178
I mean, you
didn't invent
212
00:07:21,178 --> 00:07:22,387
that paradigm,
right?
213
00:07:22,387 --> 00:07:23,720
-Right.
-That money equals...
214
00:07:24,053 --> 00:07:24,887
power...
215
00:07:25,220 --> 00:07:26,637
and money equals
some privilege
216
00:07:26,637 --> 00:07:28,345
in the
relationship.
217
00:07:28,345 --> 00:07:29,762
And it is something
that we have --
218
00:07:29,762 --> 00:07:31,345
we have -- we have
talked through --
219
00:07:31,345 --> 00:07:33,220
-Mm-hm.
-and I have worked on --
220
00:07:33,220 --> 00:07:34,804
-Yeah.
-and in has been very,
221
00:07:34,804 --> 00:07:37,303
very, very
hard to...
222
00:07:37,762 --> 00:07:39,512
-switch that mindset --
-Mm-hm.
223
00:07:40,136 --> 00:07:42,804
In the past, I would
say "entitlement."
224
00:07:42,804 --> 00:07:43,845
-Yes.
-Mm-hm.
225
00:07:43,845 --> 00:07:44,970
Today...
226
00:07:45,470 --> 00:07:46,303
it's...
227
00:07:47,970 --> 00:07:49,470
I just feel like it
kind of comes
228
00:07:49,470 --> 00:07:50,762
from a
place of...
229
00:07:51,428 --> 00:07:53,178
"I don't know how
to keep up."
230
00:07:54,261 --> 00:07:56,845
-Mm-hm.
-I-- I-- I--
231
00:07:56,845 --> 00:07:58,345
I am...
[sighs]
232
00:07:59,095 --> 00:08:00,595
I'm nervous...
233
00:08:01,053 --> 00:08:02,595
when there's dishes...
234
00:08:03,136 --> 00:08:04,595
-around.
-Mm-hm.
235
00:08:08,261 --> 00:08:10,011
Because you don't
want to do them.
236
00:08:10,011 --> 00:08:11,720
-Can I ask a question?
-I mean, like...
237
00:08:12,178 --> 00:08:14,053
It's not because I don't
want to do them.
238
00:08:14,053 --> 00:08:16,136
I don't mind doing
the dishes.
239
00:08:16,136 --> 00:08:17,512
I just --
I--
240
00:08:18,845 --> 00:08:20,679
I just don't
have that much
241
00:08:20,679 --> 00:08:22,011
time that
often
242
00:08:22,011 --> 00:08:23,387
And --
and -- I--
243
00:08:23,387 --> 00:08:24,804
I don't --
I don't know --
244
00:08:24,804 --> 00:08:25,929
[Orna] And maybe you
don't feel like
245
00:08:25,929 --> 00:08:27,178
it's your
job?
246
00:08:28,178 --> 00:08:30,720

let me ask
you this.
250
00:08:36,053 --> 00:08:37,220
If you and I are
both working
251
00:08:37,220 --> 00:08:39,136
the same amount
of hours --
252
00:08:39,136 --> 00:08:39,845
Mm-hm.
253
00:08:40,804 --> 00:08:42,428
whose responsibility is
it to clean the house?
254
00:08:42,428 --> 00:08:44,220
And to make sure
shit gets done?
255
00:08:45,261 --> 00:08:46,553
Ideally, we should
both split it.
256
00:08:47,470 --> 00:08:49,053
When does
that happen?
257
00:08:49,053 --> 00:08:50,303
-Not that often.
-Well, can I just ask...
258
00:08:50,303 --> 00:08:52,011
I know it's
not a...
259
00:08:52,470 --> 00:08:54,637
PC question
to ask, but...
260
00:08:54,637 --> 00:08:55,887
and does it matter
how much money
261
00:08:55,887 --> 00:08:57,220
each person
is bringing?
262
00:08:59,095 --> 00:09:00,470
I think...

[sighs]
264
00:09:05,220 --> 00:09:07,220
in my gut, I feel
like yeah.

Oh, it's cool

273
00:09:53,929 --> 00:09:56,720
I sought therapy
for us

because I believe
that I wanted

a renegotiation

-Dismissive?
-Yeah.

Do you recognize any
of this kind of --

00:10:23,679 --> 00:10:26,345
[laughs] I understand
why she feels this way.
289

No, but do you recognize
that in yourself?

I recognize
w-- why...
291
00:10:32,595 --> 00:10:34,011
she sees that.
292
00:10:34,303 --> 00:10:36,178
So I -- I know what
she's talking about --
293
00:10:36,178 --> 00:10:37,178
[Orna]
Yeah.
294
00:10:37,178 --> 00:10:38,970
but it'd be,
like, me...
295
00:10:39,387 --> 00:10:40,970
you know, telling
you what
296
00:10:40,970 --> 00:10:43,178
-one side of this is --
-Mm-hm.
297
00:10:43,178 --> 00:10:44,428
and then thinking
it's the whole side.
298
00:10:44,428 --> 00:10:45,804
Alright, I got
it, yeah.
299
00:10:45,804 --> 00:10:47,011
If you look at
it that way,
300
00:10:47,011 --> 00:10:48,512
that's what you're
gonna see.
301
00:10:48,512 --> 00:10:49,345
If you look at it
a different way,
302
00:10:49,345 --> 00:10:50,512
you'll see
something else.
303
00:10:50,512 --> 00:10:51,595
-Right, okay, so the --
-There was --
304
00:10:51,595 --> 00:10:52,762
Wait, wait,
stop.
305
00:10:52,762 --> 00:10:53,929
So this is exactly
what I --
306
00:10:53,929 --> 00:10:56,220
this is exactly what
I was talking about.
307
00:10:56,220 --> 00:10:57,637
I'll say...
308
00:10:57,970 --> 00:10:59,387
"Don't say that,
that's mean" --
309
00:10:59,387 --> 00:11:01,053
-Mm-hm.
-and -- and then
310
00:11:01,053 --> 00:11:01,845
the other si--
311
00:11:01,845 --> 00:11:03,053
so here's the
one side is
312
00:11:03,053 --> 00:11:04,095
"That's mean,
313
00:11:04,095 --> 00:11:06,011
those are ugly words
you're throwin' at me" --
314
00:11:06,011 --> 00:11:07,679
-Mm-hm.
-Or like making me feel...
315
00:11:08,011 --> 00:11:09,220
small,
316
00:11:09,220 --> 00:11:10,011
but the other
side is,
317
00:11:10,011 --> 00:11:11,011
that you can't
wait to show me,
318
00:11:11,011 --> 00:11:12,095
is what a great
and supportive
319
00:11:12,095 --> 00:11:13,011
husband you are
320
00:11:13,011 --> 00:11:15,220
and how supportive
and da-da-da,
321
00:11:15,220 --> 00:11:16,679
which just makes
my side...
322
00:11:17,261 --> 00:11:18,345
irrelevant,
323
00:11:18,345 --> 00:11:19,845
which is your whole
point of doing it.
324
00:11:20,387 --> 00:11:22,303
Baby, that -- that was
a terrible example.
325
00:11:22,303 --> 00:11:23,303
You are being
326
00:11:23,303 --> 00:11:24,220
mean to me.
327
00:11:26,011 --> 00:11:27,053
I already said
that I understand
328
00:11:27,053 --> 00:11:28,303
why you feel
that way.
329
00:11:28,303 --> 00:11:29,387
But you don't!
330
00:11:29,387 --> 00:11:30,845
-Yeah, I do.
-You absolutely don't.
331
00:11:30,845 --> 00:11:32,178
-I still do.
-Okay, but if --
332
00:11:32,178 --> 00:11:34,053
I did when I said it and
I still do [indistinct]
333
00:11:34,053 --> 00:11:35,512
Okay, then so
what part of that
334
00:11:35,512 --> 00:11:36,637
is on you?
335
00:11:36,637 --> 00:11:37,887
But -- but
what is --
336
00:11:37,887 --> 00:11:39,220
what is --
what --
337
00:11:39,220 --> 00:11:40,804
just say, what
part is on you?
338
00:11:41,887 --> 00:11:42,804
Well --
[sighs]
339
00:11:43,261 --> 00:11:44,303
the reason --
a --
340
00:11:44,303 --> 00:11:45,345
a part --
uh...
341
00:11:45,345 --> 00:11:46,178
Look.
342
00:11:48,845 --> 00:11:51,303
It -- it can happen in
certain situations --
343
00:11:51,303 --> 00:11:52,970
-Mm-hm.
-um...
344
00:11:52,970 --> 00:11:56,595
But the constant in
those other situations
345
00:11:56,595 --> 00:11:58,512
is the way that you're
approaching it.
346
00:11:58,804 --> 00:12:00,470
-This is--
-Well, that's a dynamic.
347
00:12:00,470 --> 00:12:01,887
That's a couple
dynamic.
348
00:12:01,887 --> 00:12:03,929
I mean you're
saying to Annie,
349
00:12:04,261 --> 00:12:05,637
"Look, there's a part
that is yours,
350
00:12:05,637 --> 00:12:07,345
which is the way
you approach me.
351
00:12:07,345 --> 00:12:08,512
Mm-hm.
352
00:12:08,512 --> 00:12:09,637
What part's
yours?
353
00:12:10,095 --> 00:12:10,970
[Orna] But
say,
354
00:12:10,970 --> 00:12:12,762
"And here's where
I can meet you.
355
00:12:13,261 --> 00:12:14,637
-Here's my part."
-Yeah, I mean --
356
00:12:14,637 --> 00:12:16,679
Look, I'm struggling
to find what that is
357
00:12:16,679 --> 00:12:18,136
-because --
-Come on.
358
00:12:18,136 --> 00:12:19,011
You can.
359
00:12:19,553 --> 00:12:20,345
No, no.
360
00:12:20,345 --> 00:12:21,387
I'm being
sincere when --
361
00:12:21,720 --> 00:12:23,178
You already
have it.
362
00:12:23,470 --> 00:12:24,637
Your --
your --
363
00:12:24,637 --> 00:12:26,470
it's not missing from
your relationship.
364
00:12:26,470 --> 00:12:27,345
[Orna] Then just
say it again.
365
00:12:27,345 --> 00:12:29,095
Even if you're doing
that effort,
366
00:12:29,095 --> 00:12:30,303
you could
just say,
367
00:12:30,303 --> 00:12:31,887
"Here's what
I'm trying to do."
368
00:12:33,512 --> 00:12:34,470
Here's what
I'm already
369
00:12:34,470 --> 00:12:35,762
successful
at doing.
370
00:12:36,095 --> 00:12:37,387
That's not the
same thing.
371
00:12:37,804 --> 00:12:40,512
I think you'll get
way more traction
372
00:12:40,512 --> 00:12:41,929
if you say,
373
00:12:41,929 --> 00:12:42,887
rather than
say
374
00:12:42,887 --> 00:12:44,345
"I've been doing it
all this time,"
375
00:12:44,345 --> 00:12:45,720
is if you
say,
376
00:12:45,720 --> 00:12:47,261
"I can try
harder...
377
00:12:47,637 --> 00:12:48,470
to...
378
00:12:49,178 --> 00:12:50,804
not be
dismissive.
379
00:12:54,804 --> 00:12:55,845
What triggers
me
380
00:12:55,845 --> 00:12:58,011
is when you talk to me
in this way or that way,
381
00:12:58,011 --> 00:13:00,804
but I still wanna keep
making the effort to --
382
00:13:01,929 --> 00:13:03,261
-Mm-hm.
-Be respectful."
383
00:13:04,929 --> 00:13:06,679
Yeah, that's
insulting.
384
00:13:06,970 --> 00:13:08,303
-To whom?
-To me.
385
00:13:08,303 --> 00:13:09,637
-That -- that's a --
-Okay --
386
00:13:09,637 --> 00:13:11,387
that's a ridiculous
thing to say to me.
387
00:13:11,387 --> 00:13:12,178
Bear that
insult.
388
00:13:12,178 --> 00:13:12,970
It'll be good for
your marriage.
389
00:13:12,970 --> 00:13:14,136
No, I won't
do it
390
00:13:14,136 --> 00:13:15,136
and I don't
want it.
391
00:13:15,136 --> 00:13:16,136
I-- If you
could --
392
00:13:16,136 --> 00:13:17,887
if you were
to give me
393
00:13:17,887 --> 00:13:20,387
everything I ever
wanted by doing that,
394
00:13:20,387 --> 00:13:21,011
I'd say no.
395
00:13:21,011 --> 00:13:22,762
I'd rather
have nothing
396
00:13:22,762 --> 00:13:24,053
than have
that.
397
00:13:27,053 --> 00:13:29,595
[Orna] It feels like we're
going nowhere, in a way,
398
00:13:29,595 --> 00:13:31,387
because
of his...
399
00:13:31,387 --> 00:13:33,470
defensiveness
and...
400
00:13:33,804 --> 00:13:35,970
he won't make
use of anything
401
00:13:35,970 --> 00:13:37,387
that I say
and very little
402
00:13:37,387 --> 00:13:39,345
-of what his wife says.
-Mm-hm.
403
00:13:39,345 --> 00:13:41,970
So it feels like I'm up
against this, like,
404
00:13:41,970 --> 00:13:43,220
armor of
resistance.
405
00:13:43,220 --> 00:13:43,845
Uh-huh.
406
00:13:44,804 --> 00:13:47,261
His claim is
that everyone...
407
00:13:47,261 --> 00:13:48,637
gets dismissed...
408
00:13:49,303 --> 00:13:50,720
-at various points --
-In the world, in life --
409
00:13:50,720 --> 00:13:52,303
-In the world.
-Yeah, right.
410
00:13:52,303 --> 00:13:54,053
-And that she should just --
-No, I know.
411
00:13:54,053 --> 00:13:54,720
Yeah.
412
00:13:55,512 --> 00:13:57,178
She -- he says, "She
should suck it up.
413
00:13:57,178 --> 00:13:59,428
-I give her so much --
-Mm-hm.
414
00:13:59,428 --> 00:14:01,053
and we would
have peace.
415
00:14:01,512 --> 00:14:04,303
[Orna] This is where it gets
wrapped up in feminism.
416
00:14:04,595 --> 00:14:05,428
-Yeah.
-Like, is it
417
00:14:05,428 --> 00:14:07,011
a legit thing...
418
00:14:08,095 --> 00:14:09,261
to...
419
00:14:09,720 --> 00:14:13,178
say "Okay, this marriage
will keep its peace...
420
00:14:13,178 --> 00:14:16,095
if she gives up on
a certain kind of --
421
00:14:16,095 --> 00:14:17,929
-No, I hear what you're saying.
-recognition of her
422
00:14:17,929 --> 00:14:20,303
-subjectivity.
-I hear what you're saying.
423

And, uh,
424
00:14:21,220 --> 00:14:22,970
it is a bad
choice for her.

00:14:23,512 --> 00:14:24,970
Whether he can...

00:14:25,303 --> 00:14:26,095
get beyond it,
427
00:14:26,095 --> 00:14:27,804
that would only
have to do with
428
00:14:27,804 --> 00:14:29,428
the treatment that
he's in with you.
429
00:14:29,887 --> 00:14:32,136
There's no other way
he's gonna get beyond it.

do you want to say

So, if we have
this routine
464
00:16:17,261 --> 00:16:19,220
where we'll -- we'll go
out on the weekend
465
00:16:19,220 --> 00:16:21,345
and we'll do brunch and
we're hanging out together
466
00:16:21,345 --> 00:16:23,303
and we'll do
this routine...
467
00:16:25,553 --> 00:16:28,261
17 consecutive
weekends in a row
468
00:16:28,261 --> 00:16:31,261
and the one weekend
where I don't want to

you know, this is
the tirade that I get.
470

The last time that we
actually did that routine
471
00:16:38,053 --> 00:16:40,929
was probably la-- in the
summer some time ago.

-We do it all the time .

if you were't
waking up
475
00:16:45,720 --> 00:16:46,720
to go to the
gym with me
476
00:16:46,720 --> 00:16:47,679
and I was going
to the gym
477
00:16:47,679 --> 00:16:48,762
-by myself?
-But we hang out.
478
00:16:48,762 --> 00:16:49,595
-When?
-On the weekend.
479
00:16:49,595 --> 00:16:50,512
Name it.
Name it.
480
00:16:50,512 --> 00:16:52,261
-We'll go eat.
-Name it.
481
00:16:52,261 --> 00:16:54,929
-Name it.
-Every Saturday and Sunday.
482
00:16:54,929 --> 00:16:57,011
You know, I work
with couples a lot...
483
00:16:57,512 --> 00:17:01,095
so let me see if I can
save you the time
484
00:17:01,095 --> 00:17:04,011
of arguing about facts
about what happened.
485
00:17:04,011 --> 00:17:04,970
[Elaine]
Mm-hm.
486
00:17:05,220 --> 00:17:06,220
It doesn't
work.
487
00:17:06,220 --> 00:17:07,804
Like, arguing "Did it
happen this way?
488
00:17:07,804 --> 00:17:08,845
Did it happen
that way?
489
00:17:08,845 --> 00:17:09,637
Did you --
490
00:17:09,637 --> 00:17:10,929
did we go
17 times
491
00:17:10,929 --> 00:17:12,679
or did we not
go since...
492
00:17:12,679 --> 00:17:13,470
August?"
493
00:17:14,136 --> 00:17:15,762
You're not going
to go anywhere
494
00:17:15,762 --> 00:17:17,178
with that kind
of argument.
495
00:17:17,178 --> 00:17:19,387
Instead, let's
think about
496
00:17:19,387 --> 00:17:21,136
what's really
of importance
497
00:17:21,136 --> 00:17:22,762
to the two of
you about this.
498
00:17:22,762 --> 00:17:23,970
-Mm-hm.
-Right?
499
00:17:23,970 --> 00:17:25,470
What's really at
the heart of it.
500
00:17:25,470 --> 00:17:26,512
I think...
501
00:17:27,387 --> 00:17:29,929
he wants it to
be a situation
502
00:17:29,929 --> 00:17:32,220
where we live
with each other
503
00:17:32,220 --> 00:17:33,512
and not
interact.
504
00:17:34,804 --> 00:17:36,303
That's what it
feels like.
505
00:17:36,595 --> 00:17:38,637
He thinks sitting on
a couch like this
506
00:17:38,637 --> 00:17:39,845
just staring
into the box
507
00:17:39,845 --> 00:17:41,428
is us
interacting.
508
00:17:41,428 --> 00:17:43,762
And so anything
outside of that,
509
00:17:43,762 --> 00:17:46,553
for him, is effort that
he does not want to...
510
00:17:46,553 --> 00:17:47,095
exert.
511
00:17:48,428 --> 00:17:50,178
I'm assuming you're
not gonna agree
512
00:17:50,178 --> 00:17:51,970
with that description,
right?
513
00:17:52,261 --> 00:17:53,929
-No.
-No.
514
00:17:55,095 --> 00:17:56,762
So that's
not it.
515
00:17:57,470 --> 00:17:58,428
That --
I-- I--
516
00:17:58,428 --> 00:17:59,887
that's what
I feel.
517
00:17:59,887 --> 00:18:00,804
That's what
I feel is --
518
00:18:00,804 --> 00:18:02,470
That's what you
feel, but that's --
519
00:18:02,470 --> 00:18:03,261
you're not --
520
00:18:03,261 --> 00:18:04,220
you have to find
a place where
521
00:18:04,220 --> 00:18:06,011
you actually agree
on what's going on
522
00:18:06,011 --> 00:18:07,595
between the two
of you because
523
00:18:07,595 --> 00:18:10,512
you're characterizing it
in a very extreme way.
524
00:18:11,178 --> 00:18:13,804
You're each
getting polarized
525
00:18:13,804 --> 00:18:16,178
into your own
extreme version.
526
00:18:18,345 --> 00:18:20,679
Let's try to find out
what's really going on,
527
00:18:20,679 --> 00:18:22,261
not your...
528
00:18:22,261 --> 00:18:23,804
fears of what's
going on.
529
00:18:25,053 --> 00:18:26,845
We used to go
out a lot more.
530
00:18:26,845 --> 00:18:28,845
We used to go on
a lot of trips.
531
00:18:29,470 --> 00:18:31,303
We spent more
time together
532
00:18:31,303 --> 00:18:32,887
and we had
fun together,
533
00:18:32,887 --> 00:18:34,220
and we laughed
together.
534
00:18:34,929 --> 00:18:36,011
And, um...
535
00:18:36,011 --> 00:18:38,595
-not so much anymore.
-Mm-hm.
536
00:18:39,095 --> 00:18:40,345
But I can't put
a finger on it.
537
00:18:40,345 --> 00:18:43,387
But you're saying
something changed in your...
538
00:18:44,220 --> 00:18:46,470
way of being in
the relationship?
539
00:18:46,470 --> 00:18:48,470
Something definitely
changed.
540
00:18:48,470 --> 00:18:49,428
And you're
saying in --
541
00:18:49,428 --> 00:18:51,387
in how much you've
wanted to please?
542
00:18:51,637 --> 00:18:53,136
I think
for me,
543
00:18:53,470 --> 00:18:55,387
there's a
lot of, um...
544
00:18:55,679 --> 00:18:58,011
I don't want
to reward
545
00:18:58,345 --> 00:18:59,553
the behavior
that --
546
00:18:59,553 --> 00:19:00,762
because,
you know, I--
547
00:19:00,762 --> 00:19:01,762
you know, I--
548
00:19:01,762 --> 00:19:03,845
there are a lot
of times I feel like...
549
00:19:04,595 --> 00:19:05,512
um...
550
00:19:05,512 --> 00:19:06,679
you know, she's done
or said something
551
00:19:06,679 --> 00:19:07,887
that I don't like
552
00:19:07,887 --> 00:19:09,303
or she acts in a way
I don't like...
553
00:19:09,595 --> 00:19:12,512
I just don't want to reward
that behavior anymore.
554
00:19:12,512 --> 00:19:14,470
-I'm -- I'm not --
-So you...
555
00:19:15,136 --> 00:19:17,720
-retreat --
-I guess that's --
556
00:19:17,720 --> 00:19:18,887
as a way
to punish?
557
00:19:18,887 --> 00:19:20,679
Not as a way to punish,
it's just --
558
00:19:20,679 --> 00:19:22,011
Well, "not reward"
is punish.
559
00:19:22,553 --> 00:19:23,428
Okay.
560
00:19:25,428 --> 00:19:26,679
-Maybe that's it.
-It's -- you're having --
561
00:19:26,679 --> 00:19:27,929
you're trying to
have an impact
562
00:19:27,929 --> 00:19:29,261
by retreating.
563
00:19:31,303 --> 00:19:32,845
A passive impact
by saying
564
00:19:32,845 --> 00:19:33,929
"I don't want
this beha--
565
00:19:33,929 --> 00:19:35,512
This -- I don't
approve
566
00:19:35,512 --> 00:19:36,762
of this behavior."
567
00:19:36,762 --> 00:19:37,720
-Yes.
-Yeah.
568
00:19:38,011 --> 00:19:40,887
And the behavior you
don't approve of is...?
569
00:19:42,595 --> 00:19:43,553
[sighs]
I don't know,
570
00:19:43,553 --> 00:19:45,095
she gets mad
all the time.
571
00:19:45,095 --> 00:19:47,136
She's always mad
at something.
572
00:19:47,136 --> 00:19:49,512
She's always yelling
at something.
573
00:19:50,303 --> 00:19:53,887
You know, anger is rarely
a primary emotion...
574
00:19:54,428 --> 00:19:54,720
right?
575
00:19:55,553 --> 00:19:56,512
Usually, anger is,
like, some kind of
576
00:19:56,512 --> 00:19:58,220
defense against
something else.
577
00:19:59,178 --> 00:20:00,637
Feeling humiliated,
578
00:20:00,637 --> 00:20:01,804
feeling sad
579
00:20:01,804 --> 00:20:03,470
feeling hurt...
580
00:20:03,929 --> 00:20:05,512
You know, people
don't like to...
581
00:20:05,512 --> 00:20:08,261
feel vulnerable,
so they put up anger.
582
00:20:09,095 --> 00:20:11,804
So your way of
avoiding the fighting...
583
00:20:12,261 --> 00:20:14,720
is to try to minimize
interaction --
584
00:20:15,387 --> 00:20:16,970
Yeah.
Oh, yeah.
585
00:20:16,970 --> 00:20:19,136
[Orna] Like, you could
be offering more
586
00:20:19,136 --> 00:20:20,970
and you're withholding
maybe because
587
00:20:20,970 --> 00:20:23,095
you're resentful
or...
588
00:20:23,845 --> 00:20:24,345
Yeah.
589
00:20:24,804 --> 00:20:26,595
So what if,
590
00:20:26,595 --> 00:20:28,095
when you want
to withdraw
591
00:20:28,095 --> 00:20:30,470
-and minimize interaction --
-Mm-hm.
592
00:20:30,470 --> 00:20:31,470
go towards.
593
00:20:32,261 --> 00:20:34,470
You hear what Elaine
wants from you, right?
594
00:20:34,929 --> 00:20:37,470
She wants to spend
time with you.
595
00:20:37,470 --> 00:20:39,762
[laughs]
596
00:20:44,637 --> 00:20:46,512
-Yes?
-Yes.
597
00:20:47,345 --> 00:20:49,011
You're laughing
because...?
598
00:20:49,011 --> 00:20:50,512
I feel like...
599
00:20:51,428 --> 00:20:53,220
I will do
that, right?
600
00:20:53,220 --> 00:20:55,512
And I'll do
that for...
601
00:20:56,178 --> 00:20:57,804
six days out
of the week.
602
00:20:57,804 --> 00:20:59,512
-Mm-hm.
-That seventh day --
603
00:20:59,512 --> 00:21:00,387
Mm-hm.
604
00:21:00,387 --> 00:21:02,011
if she wants me
to do something
605
00:21:02,011 --> 00:21:03,011
and I don't
wanna do it
606
00:21:03,011 --> 00:21:04,512
-or I can't do it --
-Mm-hm.
607
00:21:05,011 --> 00:21:06,553
It's all for
naught
608
00:21:06,553 --> 00:21:08,220
-and it's just like, "You --"
-Okay, then we have --
609
00:21:08,220 --> 00:21:09,303
then we have to
deal with that
610
00:21:09,303 --> 00:21:11,220
and I will help the two
of you deal with that.
611
00:21:11,220 --> 00:21:12,804
I don't -- I don't
feel like I want
612
00:21:12,804 --> 00:21:14,929
to deal with that
...anymore.
613
00:21:15,261 --> 00:21:16,637
Well, what's --
uh...
614
00:21:16,637 --> 00:21:17,720
I'm here.
615
00:21:18,053 --> 00:21:19,470
You can't --
that's not --
616
00:21:19,470 --> 00:21:20,553
-[laughs]
-No!
617
00:21:21,470 --> 00:21:22,929
No, we're working.
[laughs]
618
00:21:22,929 --> 00:21:23,762
All right.
619
00:21:24,679 --> 00:21:26,428
-No out.
-Okay.
620
00:21:26,845 --> 00:21:29,428
-Stay in.
-[laughs]
621
00:21:30,595 --> 00:21:31,970
[Orna] What are
you thinking?
622
00:21:37,804 --> 00:21:39,303
-I--
-How are you feeling?
623
00:21:39,303 --> 00:21:40,637
I'm raging.
624
00:21:40,637 --> 00:21:42,220
You're raging?
You look sad.
625
00:21:43,679 --> 00:21:45,011
Yeah, that too.
626
00:21:45,512 --> 00:21:46,178
[Orna] So...
627
00:21:47,053 --> 00:21:48,345
what are you
sad about?
628
00:21:52,929 --> 00:21:54,804
[sighs]
629
00:21:58,929 --> 00:22:00,595
[sighs]
630
00:22:03,762 --> 00:22:05,428
[sighs]
631
00:22:07,887 --> 00:22:09,345
I'm just
tired of...
632
00:22:10,220 --> 00:22:12,178
-feeling like this.
-Mm-hm.
633
00:22:14,470 --> 00:22:16,970
And then to hear
him say that...
634
00:22:16,970 --> 00:22:18,595
he's punishing me...
635
00:22:19,512 --> 00:22:22,428
like, WTF, right?
636
00:22:22,887 --> 00:22:23,970
Like, what?
637
00:22:24,387 --> 00:22:26,512
Oh, I put that word
in his mouth.
638
00:22:26,512 --> 00:22:27,679
But it's -- but...
639
00:22:27,679 --> 00:22:29,720
I heard it even
before you said it
640
00:22:29,720 --> 00:22:31,595
because it's like
what you said:
641
00:22:31,887 --> 00:22:33,637
not rewarding
is punishing.
642
00:22:35,053 --> 00:22:37,053
[Orna] Right, but you're
taking that to mean
643
00:22:37,053 --> 00:22:39,303
-that he is punishing--
-Trying to hurt you --
644
00:22:39,303 --> 00:22:42,261
But what else do
you think it means?
645
00:22:42,261 --> 00:22:43,637
I'm not trying
to hurt you.
646
00:22:43,637 --> 00:22:45,428
You're taking it to mean
that you're being punished
647
00:22:45,428 --> 00:22:49,053
for wanting Desean's
company, right?
648
00:22:50,720 --> 00:22:52,720
No, it's -- it's
just -- it's --
649
00:22:52,720 --> 00:22:54,470
I-- I just
feel like...
650
00:22:55,261 --> 00:22:57,553
I'm trying to force
a situation
651
00:22:57,553 --> 00:22:58,553
that he doesn't
want.
652
00:22:58,553 --> 00:23:00,095
He clearly
said it.
653
00:23:00,095 --> 00:23:01,470
What -- you're
hearing something
654
00:23:01,470 --> 00:23:02,637
-that I didn't hear.
-That's what I heard.
655
00:23:02,637 --> 00:23:04,303
But help me understand
what you heard.
656
00:23:04,303 --> 00:23:06,637
He doesn't wanna put
the work into...
657
00:23:07,720 --> 00:23:09,303
into that
process, right?
658
00:23:09,303 --> 00:23:11,178
Like -- like,
spending the time
659
00:23:11,178 --> 00:23:12,387
and going
through those --
660
00:23:12,679 --> 00:23:15,470
through that, for him,
is too much effort.
661
00:23:16,261 --> 00:23:18,679
-That's not what I heard.
-That's what I heard.
662
00:23:18,929 --> 00:23:21,970
No, what I
heard is...
663
00:23:21,970 --> 00:23:24,178
he wants to spend
time with you,
664
00:23:24,178 --> 00:23:25,762
he wants to
make the effort.
665
00:23:25,762 --> 00:23:28,428
He -- he is
extremely averse
666
00:23:28,428 --> 00:23:29,553
to conflict.
667
00:23:29,970 --> 00:23:31,095
Do you understand
that?
668
00:23:31,553 --> 00:23:33,095
There's no
conflict.
669
00:23:33,970 --> 00:23:34,804
Right, but
what --
670
00:23:34,804 --> 00:23:37,428
you have a high
tolerance for...
671
00:23:38,011 --> 00:23:39,095
um...
672
00:23:39,970 --> 00:23:42,887
conflict, energy,
anger.
673
00:23:43,387 --> 00:23:44,553
Desean doesn't.
674
00:23:45,387 --> 00:23:47,261
From your
point-of-view,
675
00:23:47,261 --> 00:23:50,178
the more you feel
like there's anger
676
00:23:50,178 --> 00:23:52,345
or criticism coming
your way,
677
00:23:52,345 --> 00:23:54,553
-the more you retreat.
-Yes.
678
00:23:55,053 --> 00:23:56,053
and you're
saying,
679
00:23:56,053 --> 00:23:57,428
"If only...
680
00:23:57,428 --> 00:23:58,804
my partner
over there
681
00:23:58,804 --> 00:24:00,720
would stop
being angry...
682
00:24:01,804 --> 00:24:03,970
-I could give more.
-Yeah.
683
00:24:04,637 --> 00:24:06,303
I would want
to please more."
684
00:24:06,303 --> 00:24:07,178
Yes.
685
00:24:07,637 --> 00:24:08,929
Elaine is
saying...
686
00:24:09,804 --> 00:24:11,387
"I want more
connection.
687
00:24:11,387 --> 00:24:13,387
I want more simple
togetherness,
688
00:24:13,387 --> 00:24:14,720
doing things
together."
689
00:24:16,804 --> 00:24:18,220
The more you
retreat,
690
00:24:18,220 --> 00:24:19,804
the more abandoned,
691
00:24:19,804 --> 00:24:21,720
alone, rejected...
692
00:24:21,970 --> 00:24:23,303
Elaine feels...
693
00:24:24,261 --> 00:24:26,178
the more rejected
Elaine feels
694
00:24:26,178 --> 00:24:27,929
the more she'll
go after you.
695
00:24:29,970 --> 00:24:32,553
Gives each of you
a pretty clear idea
696
00:24:32,553 --> 00:24:34,512
of what you need to do
to change that dynamic.
697
00:24:36,929 --> 00:24:37,512
Okay.
698
00:24:42,887 --> 00:24:43,804
Okay.
