How Men Can Take Responsibility for Repairing and Strengthening Their Marriages – Part 2: When She Thinks You’re Lying Just Because You’re Tired


Listen Later

"Why does my wife think I'm hiding something just because I'm exhausted?"
"Why does trying to talk always spiral into more conflict—even when I'm trying to do it right?"

In Part 2 of How Men Can Take Responsibility for Repairing and Strengthening Their Marriages, we dig into one of the most frustrating dynamics men face: being emotionally drained after long conversations—and then being accused of dishonesty or emotional detachment because of it.

This episode walks men through:

  • What to do when your exhaustion gets interpreted as guilt or secrecy

  • How to respond when your efforts to step away and cool down are seen as "running away"

  • Why withdrawing with dignity is a critical skill every husband must master

  • How the seasonal marriage repair model helps you track where you are in the emotional rebuilding process

  • Why crashing doesn’t mean you’ve failed—and how to reset the cycle without giving up hope

You’ll also hear real struggles from men in the trenches, and how to handle situations where logic and emotion feel like they’re at war.
