Transcript
1
00:00:00,710 --> 00:00:03,969
If you're truly devoted to your marriage,
whether you're just starting out or been

2
00:00:03,970 --> 00:00:07,290
in it for 20 years, the art of keeping
the spark alive in your relationship

3
00:00:07,310 --> 00:00:08,459
is something you need to learn.

4
00:00:09,239 --> 00:00:10,300
But let's start at the beginning.

5
00:00:10,889 --> 00:00:13,629
Congratulations to you
if you found the one.

6
00:00:13,950 --> 00:00:17,709
You survived dating and she decided
that yes, she will marry you.

7
00:00:18,235 --> 00:00:20,755
She knows you better than most
people will ever know you.

8
00:00:20,755 --> 00:00:23,345
And she still loves to
commit to life to you.

9
00:00:23,345 --> 00:00:24,235
That's that's great.

10
00:00:24,244 --> 00:00:25,075
That's amazing.

11
00:00:25,945 --> 00:00:27,775
Your personality and charm worked.

12
00:00:28,354 --> 00:00:31,435
The first days are a whirlwind
of romance and puppy dog love.

13
00:00:31,435 --> 00:00:32,134
You don't fight.

14
00:00:32,134 --> 00:00:33,064
You never argue.

15
00:00:33,564 --> 00:00:36,744
She can do no wrong and is
damn near as close to perfect

16
00:00:36,744 --> 00:00:37,964
as you'll probably ever find.

17
00:00:38,885 --> 00:00:41,875
That kind of stuff that, you
know, makes other couples kind

18
00:00:41,875 --> 00:00:43,694
of yak like a rom com movie.

19
00:00:44,714 --> 00:00:48,775
Even better, you pass the tricky
three year mark, maybe, or even

20
00:00:48,775 --> 00:00:52,285
the five year mark, and now you're
starting real life together.

21
00:00:53,165 --> 00:00:57,754
The charm doesn't quite carry you
as far, you argue some, you fight

22
00:00:57,754 --> 00:01:03,634
occasionally, you know how, you know,
you know that other person's not

23
00:01:03,634 --> 00:01:07,465
perfect anymore, that veil's gone, so
now it's time to put in the effort.

24
00:01:08,535 --> 00:01:12,745
In today's episode, we're going to
learn how to keep the spark alive

25
00:01:13,745 --> 00:01:15,825
because it's an ever changing process.

26
00:01:16,275 --> 00:01:20,655
But I've got five tips for you that will
apply to every phase of your marriage.

27
00:01:21,215 --> 00:01:22,035
I guarantee it.

28
00:01:22,045 --> 00:01:23,305
So let's get into it.

29
00:01:28,725 --> 00:01:30,024
Here's the million dollar question.

30
00:01:30,625 --> 00:01:34,214
How do men like us reach our full
potential growing into the men we

31
00:01:34,214 --> 00:01:38,424
dream of being while taking care
of our responsibilities, working,

32
00:01:38,754 --> 00:01:42,184
being good husbands, fathers,
and still take care of ourselves?

33
00:01:43,164 --> 00:01:44,634
Well, that's the big question.

34
00:01:44,730 --> 00:01:48,310
In this podcast, we'll help you
answer those questions and more.

35
00:01:48,560 --> 00:01:51,240
My name is Brent and welcome
to the Fallible Man podcast.

36
00:01:55,310 --> 00:01:59,799
My wife and I will officially celebrate
23 years and 25 years of starting your

37
00:01:59,800 --> 00:02:04,050
journey together in just a week or two.

38
00:02:04,990 --> 00:02:11,020
I was 21 years old when Sarah married
me and she was 19 and we said, I do.

39
00:02:11,050 --> 00:02:13,960
And she's still here, despite
the fact that I'm not.

40
00:02:14,260 --> 00:02:15,980
Always the easiest person to live with.

41
00:02:16,770 --> 00:02:21,120
And we've learned a lot in 23
years of marriage, full disclosure.

42
00:02:21,120 --> 00:02:22,440
We haven't always done it right.

43
00:02:22,440 --> 00:02:23,700
I certainly haven't done it.

44
00:02:23,710 --> 00:02:24,340
All right.

45
00:02:25,320 --> 00:02:27,649
This is an episode I could
have used several years ago.

46
00:02:27,740 --> 00:02:30,910
So I wanted to share some of
the thoughts on this to help you

47
00:02:30,910 --> 00:02:32,480
avoid the mistakes I've made.

48
00:02:32,979 --> 00:02:36,520
Because keeping the romance alive was not
actually my best work for a long time.

49
00:02:36,520 --> 00:02:38,110
In fact, I kind of really sucked at it.

50
00:02:38,120 --> 00:02:41,200
My wife will tell you, I don't, I
don't pretend I was great at it.

51
00:02:41,810 --> 00:02:47,260
But I've learned five things in this 23
years that despite whatever phase your

52
00:02:47,260 --> 00:02:51,709
marriage is in, will really actually
help you keep that spark alive because

53
00:02:51,709 --> 00:02:56,079
the things that worked at the beginning
won't hold the line moving forward.

54
00:02:56,769 --> 00:03:00,940
By the way, my name is Brent and
welcome to the fallible man podcast.

55
00:03:00,969 --> 00:03:02,420
You're home for all things, man.

56
00:03:02,790 --> 00:03:04,020
Big shout out to fallible nation.

57
00:03:04,030 --> 00:03:05,990
That's what I call people who
have been with us for a long time.

58
00:03:05,990 --> 00:03:07,609
And we'd love to have you
be part of that group.

59
00:03:08,160 --> 00:03:10,130
A warm welcome to our
first time listeners.

60
00:03:10,130 --> 00:03:12,430

competing for your attention.

00:03:12,830 --> 00:03:16,480
So thank you from the bottom of my
heart for giving us the opportunity.

62
00:03:16,890 --> 00:03:18,320

66
00:03:25,870 --> 00:03:28,410
I'm also on most other platforms
that are at the fallible, man.

67
00:03:28,940 --> 00:03:29,859
Let me know what you thought.

68
00:03:29,880 --> 00:03:33,029

70
00:03:34,349 --> 00:03:37,640

71
00:03:37,650 --> 00:03:41,150
If the episode helps you, that's the
greatest compliment you ever give us.

72
00:03:41,150 --> 00:03:42,450
And I'd really appreciate that.

73
00:03:43,410 --> 00:03:46,920
Now, marriage, marriage is tricky.

74
00:03:48,420 --> 00:03:53,200
Marriage is hard, so if you're
looking for an easy answer, this

75
00:03:53,200 --> 00:03:55,739
is not the place that's going to
lie to you and tell you that works.

76
00:03:56,409 --> 00:04:01,200
Marriage moves in some distinct phases,
and it's charted weird and argued weird

77
00:04:01,209 --> 00:04:05,540
by marriage experts, because there's
one big disruptor that alters it.

78
00:04:06,394 --> 00:04:11,094
Being universally consistent and
that's when, and if you have kids,

79
00:04:11,535 --> 00:04:15,334
however, the things we use to start
our relationship are not going to serve

80
00:04:15,334 --> 00:04:17,964
you the same 10 years or 20 years in.

81
00:04:18,394 --> 00:04:20,534
Now, here's how I break it down.

82
00:04:20,665 --> 00:04:23,974
This isn't like you won't
find this in a book somewhere.

83
00:04:24,395 --> 00:04:25,825
Uh, this is just my experience.

84
00:04:25,834 --> 00:04:27,955
It's the puppy dog years
or years one through three.

85
00:04:28,255 --> 00:04:33,354
And that's, that's just sickening
rom com kind of relationship.

86
00:04:33,984 --> 00:04:35,325
Uh, you love it.

87
00:04:35,775 --> 00:04:37,195
The rest of the world doesn't exist.

88
00:04:37,215 --> 00:04:39,205
And other couples are
just awkward around you.

89
00:04:39,205 --> 00:04:41,425
Cause we're like, yeah,
you'll grow out of that.

90
00:04:42,425 --> 00:04:43,855
Don't listen to the jaded couples.

91
00:04:44,065 --> 00:04:44,655
Enjoy it.

92
00:04:44,994 --> 00:04:45,244
Right.

93
00:04:45,244 --> 00:04:48,564
You have your adjustment years to the
fact that you're not all perfect in that

94
00:04:48,565 --> 00:04:52,875
four through six at seven to 10, you're
actually thinking that you have a chance.

95
00:04:52,875 --> 00:04:56,574
You might actually make this
thing work from 10 to 20.

96
00:04:56,575 --> 00:05:00,505
You're doing life and you might
actually see this through.

97
00:05:01,725 --> 00:05:05,105
And then after about 20 years,
you hit that, who are we?

98
00:05:05,105 --> 00:05:05,715
Where are we?

99
00:05:05,715 --> 00:05:06,485
Phase.

100
00:05:07,275 --> 00:05:11,895
Because usually you've had kids somewhere
in the first four phases and the kids

101
00:05:11,895 --> 00:05:12,995
are leaving the house at that point.

102
00:05:12,995 --> 00:05:16,484
And that's actually where most
marriages dissolve because you find

103
00:05:16,484 --> 00:05:20,824
out that you didn't do anything for
yourselves in those child years.

104
00:05:21,884 --> 00:05:26,184
So the kid years, they can impact
anywhere in those first four phases.

105
00:05:26,184 --> 00:05:29,004
Cause that's usually where you
have kids and they're actually the

106
00:05:29,014 --> 00:05:31,074
cause of number five, who are you?

107
00:05:31,074 --> 00:05:31,794
Where are you?

108
00:05:32,424 --> 00:05:36,534
So how do we keep the spark
alive in all of these years?

109
00:05:37,150 --> 00:05:40,620
Because what worked in one is not
going to work in 10 and it's certainly

110
00:05:40,620 --> 00:05:42,000
not going to work in year 15.

111
00:05:43,049 --> 00:05:48,189
Well, guys, I've charted five things,
five that will always help you keep the

112
00:05:48,189 --> 00:05:50,250
spark alive at any phase of your marriage.

113
00:05:51,195 --> 00:05:56,355
Now, this is from 23 years of marriage
experience, but this is also from years

114
00:05:56,355 --> 00:06:00,644
of going to marriage classes and just
being around couples that have been

115
00:06:00,644 --> 00:06:03,005
married for going on 40, 50 years.

116
00:06:03,825 --> 00:06:05,364
So here are five things.

117
00:06:05,445 --> 00:06:09,895
I promise every phase of your marriage,
this will help keep the spark alive.

118
00:06:10,685 --> 00:06:16,255
Number one, strong leadership is
always sexy purpose driven men who

119
00:06:16,255 --> 00:06:19,995
practice true leadership will always
be attractive to their spouse.

120
00:06:20,794 --> 00:06:22,525
Now I've done a lot of leadership videos.

121
00:06:24,215 --> 00:06:27,485
But if you haven't caught any of
those, a go catch those, but that

122
00:06:27,485 --> 00:06:29,825
includes listening to your spouse
and taking their advice and the

123
00:06:29,825 --> 00:06:31,115
viewpoint into consideration.

124
00:06:31,865 --> 00:06:37,564
But mainly you have to have established
yourself as a leader in that relationship.

125
00:06:37,685 --> 00:06:38,695
That doesn't mean the dominant.

126
00:06:38,704 --> 00:06:41,964
That means a leader in that
relationship to the point where she

127
00:06:41,964 --> 00:06:46,465
has complete trust and belief that
you are always working towards your

128
00:06:46,475 --> 00:06:48,225
combined vision of the future together.

129
00:06:49,015 --> 00:06:51,904
If she has no doubts that you
are leading the future together.

130
00:06:52,245 --> 00:06:56,555
Towards y'all's best days
together, that's always sexy.

131
00:06:56,575 --> 00:06:59,735
That is something that will always
keep sparking your marriage because

132
00:06:59,775 --> 00:07:03,595
women like to know that that is
at the forefront of your mind.

133
00:07:03,595 --> 00:07:04,645
That's direction you're going.

134
00:07:05,425 --> 00:07:08,265
Number two, the dad bod is never sexy.

135
00:07:08,744 --> 00:07:11,265
I was going to put this later in the
list cause I didn't want to pick on it.

136
00:07:11,265 --> 00:07:14,875
But your spouse wants
you to look good for her.

137
00:07:15,335 --> 00:07:15,725
Okay.

138
00:07:15,765 --> 00:07:19,375
Women pretend they aren't as
visual as men, but they are.

139
00:07:20,230 --> 00:07:20,640
Okay.

140
00:07:20,650 --> 00:07:24,010
You may not have to maintain that
washboard abs you had at, you

141
00:07:24,010 --> 00:07:26,330
know, 18 years old or 17 years old.

142
00:07:27,570 --> 00:07:29,420
But unhealthy is never a good look.

143
00:07:31,260 --> 00:07:34,490
And no matter what she says, your
spouse actually wants you to at

144
00:07:34,500 --> 00:07:36,219
least look healthy and good for her.

145
00:07:37,120 --> 00:07:41,230
Because it also tells her that as
long as you're doing that for her,

146
00:07:41,380 --> 00:07:45,030
like do it for yourself, but as long
as you're doing that with her in mind

147
00:07:45,030 --> 00:07:47,779
and you're telling her, it's like,
Hey baby, I want to look good for you.

148
00:07:48,680 --> 00:07:49,179
I love you.

149
00:07:49,180 --> 00:07:50,169
I want to look good for you.

150
00:07:50,970 --> 00:07:51,400
Right.

151
00:07:52,570 --> 00:07:54,300
She wants that arm candy too.

152
00:07:55,500 --> 00:07:59,390
And that you're actually thinking
about her opinion of you.

153
00:08:01,095 --> 00:08:02,425
We'll always carry weight.

154
00:08:02,435 --> 00:08:03,555
It will always be attractive.

155
00:08:04,875 --> 00:08:08,285
Number three, intentionality
is always sexy.

156
00:08:08,655 --> 00:08:09,915
The dad bod is never sexy.

157
00:08:10,655 --> 00:08:11,845
Intentionality is always sexy.

158
00:08:12,865 --> 00:08:15,835
Stay intentional about nurturing,
nurturing your relationship.

159
00:08:16,485 --> 00:08:17,525
Maintain a date night.

160
00:08:17,685 --> 00:08:20,075
This is something that
I screwed up for years.

161
00:08:20,425 --> 00:08:21,615
I stopped dating my wife.

162
00:08:21,974 --> 00:08:24,495
One of the greatest mistakes
I ever made in my marriage.

163
00:08:24,495 --> 00:08:27,065
Let me be just a hundred
percent transparent about that.

164
00:08:28,385 --> 00:08:30,275
Implementing date night was
one of the best things I did

165
00:08:30,275 --> 00:08:31,495
for my marriage in years.

166
00:08:32,955 --> 00:08:34,395
Keep dating your wife.

167
00:08:34,705 --> 00:08:35,934
Uh, I have a good friend diamond.

168
00:08:35,934 --> 00:08:38,874
Well, it's been on the show several
times and that's one of Dye's

169
00:08:39,425 --> 00:08:43,465
bylines is, you know, dating my
wife 20 years strong or whatever.

170
00:08:44,025 --> 00:08:46,224
Uh, that's still a big focus for him.

171
00:08:46,224 --> 00:08:47,885
So be present when you're with her.

172
00:08:48,035 --> 00:08:49,234
It doesn't have to be expensive.

173
00:08:49,234 --> 00:08:49,484
Okay.

174
00:08:49,484 --> 00:08:52,044
I know like all of us right
now, we're worried about money,

175
00:08:52,574 --> 00:08:53,904
economy, blah, blah, blah.

176
00:08:54,484 --> 00:08:55,834
It doesn't have to be expensive.

177
00:08:56,194 --> 00:08:57,954
You don't have to spend a lot
of money to have a date night.

178
00:09:00,040 --> 00:09:01,070
It can be simple things.

179
00:09:01,070 --> 00:09:04,070
You know, her y'all know
what's good for you together.

180
00:09:04,350 --> 00:09:07,030
My wife and I coffee
in the gun range, baby.

181
00:09:07,080 --> 00:09:08,780
That's that's a huge date for us.

182
00:09:08,780 --> 00:09:10,240
We love that time together.

183
00:09:10,950 --> 00:09:14,600
So, you know, what pushes those
buttons and moves the needle for you.

184
00:09:15,940 --> 00:09:16,800
Be intentional.

185
00:09:16,810 --> 00:09:18,410
Prioritize your relationship.

186
00:09:19,790 --> 00:09:21,680
Leave little notes, small things matter.

187
00:09:21,680 --> 00:09:23,210
Communicate actively with her.

188
00:09:24,300 --> 00:09:26,650
Be intentional about y'all's relationship.

189
00:09:26,680 --> 00:09:30,460
If you're intentional and present
in that relationship, guess what?

190
00:09:30,470 --> 00:09:30,849
That's it.

191
00:09:30,899 --> 00:09:34,419
That that sends signals in her
that sends messages to her that

192
00:09:34,430 --> 00:09:35,839
helps keep that spark alive.

193
00:09:36,889 --> 00:09:40,889
Number four, stress relief is the
game changer, game changer guys.

194
00:09:41,269 --> 00:09:44,480
If you hear nothing else in this podcast
and you want to keep the spark alive

195
00:09:44,480 --> 00:09:47,100
in your marriage, you need to pay
attention to this segment right here.

196
00:09:48,020 --> 00:09:51,670
Stress relief is a game changer in
keeping the spark alive in your marriage.

197
00:09:52,785 --> 00:09:55,175
With the difference in the
way our brains are wired.

198
00:09:55,495 --> 00:10:00,285
This gets missed by most men,
men see sex and physical contact

199
00:10:00,405 --> 00:10:01,755
as a form of stress relief.

200
00:10:02,804 --> 00:10:07,164
Women need stress relief to
want to have physical intimacy.

201
00:10:08,155 --> 00:10:09,874
This is one of our biggest disconnects.

202
00:10:09,874 --> 00:10:12,165
This couple of like, we
are just button heads here.

203
00:10:12,835 --> 00:10:14,135
Guys are like, man, I need to just.

204
00:10:14,665 --> 00:10:15,714
Bring it down a notch.

205
00:10:16,114 --> 00:10:18,074
And intimacy is one of the ways I do that.

206
00:10:18,454 --> 00:10:21,925
Women are like, I'm
losing my mind right now.

207
00:10:21,925 --> 00:10:23,025
What do you mean intimacy?

208
00:10:24,494 --> 00:10:27,804
You want to keep that spark alive,
remove the stress from her life.

209
00:10:27,805 --> 00:10:29,824
And it's one of the sexiest
things you will ever do.

210
00:10:30,194 --> 00:10:33,555
And it doesn't matter if y'all
don't have kids or you do have kids.

211
00:10:34,524 --> 00:10:39,255
If you take care of the things she's
worried about and lighten her load, this

212
00:10:39,255 --> 00:10:43,635
will lead to more physical intimacy,
which is important for staying bonded.

213
00:10:44,665 --> 00:10:46,365
But this is the disconnect we miss.

214
00:10:46,790 --> 00:10:48,560
So relieve the stress.

215
00:10:48,700 --> 00:10:54,920
She needs to be de stressed, not be
worried to want to seek intimacy.

216
00:10:55,209 --> 00:10:58,139
You're seeking intimacy
because you want to de stress.

217
00:10:58,610 --> 00:11:00,820
This is the disconnect promise.

218
00:11:00,820 --> 00:11:03,960
This alone will change your
relationship for the better.

219
00:11:04,990 --> 00:11:07,800
So help relieve her stress and anxiety.

220
00:11:08,949 --> 00:11:12,959
I guarantee your marriage will
stay a lot more spark filled.

221
00:11:14,040 --> 00:11:17,130
Number five, be aware and
interested in her life.

222
00:11:18,599 --> 00:11:21,449
Women don't think men listen to them.

223
00:11:23,170 --> 00:11:24,859
The sad thing is a lot
of times they're right.

224
00:11:25,170 --> 00:11:28,860
So listen to your spouse, know
what's going on with her, her

225
00:11:28,860 --> 00:11:30,580
friends, her work, her fears.

226
00:11:30,954 --> 00:11:36,315
Your kids ask about all those things,
be involved with those things.

227
00:11:36,315 --> 00:11:43,774
And listen, when she talks about them,
crucial, crucial, little note here, how

228
00:11:43,774 --> 00:11:50,295
she is feeling about them is actually more
important than the state of the things

229
00:11:50,534 --> 00:11:55,655
as they actually are, how she feels about
her friends, how she feels about her work.

230
00:11:56,109 --> 00:12:01,140
How she feels when she's thinking
about the kids, feels are big, but

231
00:12:01,140 --> 00:12:03,900
you need to listen and be aware of
what's going on with her and take

232
00:12:03,910 --> 00:12:07,550
interest in her life and communicate
about with her and listen, when she

233
00:12:07,550 --> 00:12:10,719
talks about it, this is sexy to women.

234
00:12:11,339 --> 00:12:15,199
I guarantee it will increase
the spark in your marriage.

235
00:12:15,709 --> 00:12:18,160
Now, these five things will always
serve your marriage, no matter

236
00:12:18,160 --> 00:12:19,980
where you are in your timeframe.

237
00:12:20,565 --> 00:12:24,505
Three months in or 40 years in these five
powerful tools will help you keep the

238
00:12:24,505 --> 00:12:29,025
spark alive and your marriage tuned up to
peak performance because I love you guys.

239
00:12:29,034 --> 00:12:29,995
Here's a bonus tip.

240
00:12:30,464 --> 00:12:31,095
Learn to cook.

241
00:12:32,875 --> 00:12:37,025
If you follow the channel for any length
of time or the podcast, you know, I'm a

242
00:12:37,025 --> 00:12:38,534
big believer in men being able to cook.

243
00:12:39,305 --> 00:12:40,985
And there's a lot of reasons behind that.

244
00:12:41,589 --> 00:12:45,720
But men who can cook a quality
meal are always sexy for women.

245
00:12:46,569 --> 00:12:51,269
Uh, I don't know a single woman who will
disagree with that, but this will help

246
00:12:51,269 --> 00:12:55,939
you being able to cook a healthy meal,
a good meal for your family, whether

the five points we just talked about

249
00:13:04,459 --> 00:13:09,689
and can be utilized effectively in all
45 points that we just talked about.

250
00:13:11,125 --> 00:13:13,885
Now, if it sounds like a lot of work
to you, then you're in for a shock

251
00:13:13,885 --> 00:13:19,425
because marriage, the last lifetime
are a lot of work and you have to be

252
00:13:19,425 --> 00:13:21,745
willing to fight for what you started.

253
00:13:22,515 --> 00:13:25,605
And if you aren't willing to fight to the
death for that relationship, you never

254
00:13:25,605 --> 00:13:26,935
should've got married in the first place.

255
