  • 5102 The 3 Iron Laws of Relationships!
    Philosopher Stefan Molyneux answers questions from

    https://freedomain.locals.com

    What are the benefits of talk therapy and what should someone expect to do when starting talk therapy? What Do you expect from a session and things to do in between sessions?

    Stefan we need you to go back on Twitter, we need an update on Taylor Swift’s eggs, even if this is the one and only thing you tweet, I need to see it because I want to watch and see the leftists go absolutely crazy 🤪🤪🤪🤪, I want to see #Taylor& rsquo;sEggs trending on Twitter!!! Hahahaha!!

    Does cyber-bullying violate UPB?
    Various forms of blackmail are illegal of course, much of which has been made easier in the social media age. The abuse through texts, and the digital manipulation games people play might be passive-aggressive, does that violate UPB?

    Hello, Steff. An aunt in my extended family has recently shared that she was sexually abused by one of her siblings growing up. The large number of siblings who are now all above middle age, have not yet shown any signs of addressing this or treating the offender any different which is greatly hurting the victim. I would really appreciate some advice here. I think the other siblings need a nudge to deal with this obviously uncomfortable situation and fully understand that they are hurting their sister. For further context, I think they are all traumatized from a bad father and are ill equipped to deal with this without outside input.

    What is your take on the Law of Assumption by Neville Goddard ?
    I came across this as my girlfriend often assumes how I feel or think without asking, and she’s usually not accurate so I find it irritating. My line of work tends to take a mental toll on me, and sometimes it’s hard to be upbeat and happy, my partner then assumes I’m unhappy with her or I take work stress out on her.
    We’ve been together a year and half, we live together in a house I bought before our relationship. She was untrustworthy early in our relationship, where I’m certain there was an affair. I felt a lot of resentment and it took me a long time to get over. She still denies anything happened and wanted to continue the relationship. I caught her lying a couple more times afterwards. But still foolishly stayed with her.
    Now this past August, at a high school reunion I got way too drunk and ended up having a one night stand. I chose to say I got too drunk and don’t remember what happened, as parts of the night I didn’t actually remember. But after people talked around town and she had heard things from her friends I decided to come clean instead of continue lying. It was a terrible thing for me to do. I think it had been easier for me to lie about it since I had been lied to multiple times by her previously.
    She since doesn’t trust me (understandably).
    Lately I guess I’m just feeling battered by work and home life, is it time to throw in the white towel, get her to move out and start over anew?
    We are in a viscous cycle for almost a year now. Where I had trust issues first, and now it’s her with the trust issues. there’s a lot more to it of course, but I’m trying to keep it shorter for the question.
    I guess I’m curious of your opinion, can the law of assumption help to overcome trust boundaries and repair a relationship? I tend to be a more positive, deep thinking person whereas she’s been through lots of trauma in her life, assumes the worst in most cases and is oppositional defiant.
    She is great in so many ways, but I know her childhood traumas cause her a lot of issues. It’s caused our relationship to suffer and now I’ve participated in doing serious damage myself.
    At 30 years of age, I’m starting to feel the panic of finding the right partner to start a family with, but am I choosing the wrong person?
    You often say it’s the individuals fault for staying with the person, and I do fear I may become one of these individuals who stayed with the wrong person.

  • 5100 WHY WOMEN DIVORCE!
    Wednesday Night Live 12 Jan 2022

    Hi Stef, regarding marriage I was wondering how you built a happy marriage without having successful examples to follow?

    I'm pretty sure I know the answer to this question knowing what you've said in the past but are you going to use your Twitter account?

    Has a caller/debate opponent ever changed your mind about something ?
    If so, what did they help change your mind about ?

    How do I confront my often verbally abusive dad about mistakes that I think he made as a parent when the response will be more verbal abuse?

    What do you think of Bergson's statement that democracy is the only system compatible with dignity but has a small flaw... Doesn't promote meritocracy? (Hope I didn't distort too much)

    Can someone in their 30’s have a personality change? Is it possible for an introvert to become an extrovert? Is the term “introvert” an excuse me and others use to not do the work of socializing (parts of which are challenging)… OR do you think this is created at a more genetic level?
    Can I be extroverted and make a massive personality change in this stage of my life? Have you heard of the concept of athletes/performers using an “alter ego”.

    Regarding marriage, why do you think the divorce rate is so high? Is it because up to 45% of relationships aren't built on virtue?

    Actual question. If there are no minor children involved how do you feel about keeping your word re: marriage vows for better or worse and staying married even when unhappy as was tradition vs breaking up a marriage? When no one is actually trying to improve things?

    What do you think accounts for the discrepancy in post Soviet republics and satellite states? Some places, namely Poland and Czech Republic, seem to have gone in the right direction in regards to expanding freedom of speech and civil liberties. Other places seem to be frozen in time, most are in a quagmire of corruption with little economic development to show for after 30 years since dissolution of the USSR.

    If love is our involuntary response to virtue (if we are virtuous), does this also apply to parental love? If so, what virtues do children display to make a parent love them?

    Is it acceptable under peaceful parenting to take a toy from your child to pay a debt they owe for being badly behaved?

    For me, the concept of soulmate doesn't mean "no conflicts". It just means they are the most compatible partner—they're still going to trigger your fears like no other, because you're really getting close to someone and the stakes are the highest possible

    yes! this is has big a big problem in my house. my wife always pulls the "I'm not getting paid" card

    Hey Stef, are females and males equally propagandized? I’m curious if there’s biological basis.

    If unrealistic expectations are harmful to longterm relationships, does this include the idea of romance? What are your thoughts on the concept of romance and its relationship to virtue if any.

    In order for a model of virtue to be understood and accepted by society on a large scale, does it need to be embodied in the form of a story or human life, like that of the Buddha or Jesus?

    Do you think being good at philosophy is a super power? If so, why aren't there any super heroes who are great philosophers?

    Just want to thank you for helping change mine & my wife's lives. It took us both 20 years to work through childhood trauma that immobilized both of us. Now we have a marriage I wouldn't change for anything. We want kids but we are in our 40s and it took a long time to get hear for us.

    Jordan Peterson believes that the bible was succesful because of its story telling capacity and embodiement of virtue in the form of a person like Jesus. He's skeptical of Sam Harris' approach to objective morality based on science because its too sterile. Is it possible for morality to be too sterile?

    Stef I asked a lady I am dating what's her salary and she refused to tell me. We been dating for a month

    Dr. Laura got the concept. Wives keep hubby happy and he will be happy to do all the little things and big things that will make you want to be happy. Her example, look at him like your knight in shining armour and act like it, and he'll cross the burning desert barefoot to bring her a lemonade. The power to be happy is within her own power. They cancelled her 20 years ago. You are in great company @freedomain

    What do you think of Sam Harris' attempt to derive morality from science. Is it true that you can't derive an ought from an is?

    Do you support Prince Harry exposing the truth about innerworkings of the Royal Family?

    My brother said that there aren't bad people, only bad actions. How do I process this? He harmed some people as a teenager so maybe this is his way of processing his dark past, but is this indicative also of the skepticism towards moral truths?
