53 - What Your Wife Means When She Says She Doesn’t Feel Safe

One of the most confusing things a man can hear from his wife is, “I don’t feel safe with you.”

Your first thought may be: How? I’ve never hurt you. I love you. I provide. I’m here. I would protect you with my life.

I had exactly that reaction when my wife said it to me.

And after speaking personally with hundreds of men, I know. If you’ve heard this you are not the only one.

In this episode, I share what took me far too long to understand about that conversation, why a man and his wife can use the exact same word while experiencing something completely different, and what I eventually discovered about my own reactions that changed the way I show up in my marriage.

If you’ve heard those words and felt confused, angry, blamed, or completely blindsided by them, I think this episode will give you a very different way to look at what may be happening.
