Transcripts

Marriage coach Larry Bilotta, author of the free report How Couples Can Fulfill Each Others Needs…

So if both the man and wife have contempt for each other, they're going to be having this attitude pretty much every day - I am above you are below. Well, no relationship can withstand that, it's more lethal than resentment. You see resentment is just I'm mad at you but contempt says I am above and you are below.

It happens in so many marriages, says Larry, and think about it - this is the perfect prescription for a failed marriage. Marry someone because you love them…

And then tell them they're wrong, tell them that they're not valuable, tell them that they're making mistakes, tell them to stop doing this or start doing that. Guess what's going to happen? You're going to produce a divorce.

Larry says, it's absolutely critical that married couples understand different needs men and women have in a marriage.

Men have two needs; one is for sexual intimacy and the other is just for respect. And women have two needs: emotional security and financial security. But what's important about these needs is everybody's version, all the men's version of their two, are expressed differently. All the versions of women's are expressed differently.
