Relationship Therapist Esther Perel on Modern-Day Dating Challenges for Men | The Man Enough Podcast

Me and my ex girlfriend broke up a month ago and one of the reasons is because I fell into the Toxic masculinity trap that Andrew Tate and others have been spewing on social media. It was driving me down a negative path where I had hate in my heart. Since then I have fighting and reframing every view I had taken from the “Red Pill” narrative and have been watching your podcast because she would always tell me to consider watching it and I can’t tell you how many times I have cried since watching your podcasts. I truly want to be a better man now and believe that I am man enough and don’t need to feel the way I was feeling which pushed her away. I want to thank you for this podcast and thank you for reminding men who may be in similar situation that we are man enough and don’t need to listen to this Andrew Tate like media.

We need a part 2 thank you guys.

I could listened to Esther all day long. So much wisdom shared, thank you all.

The only married friend I have married her high school sweetheart! She doesn't understand the gauntlet of dating, because she has literally only been on 1 date with someone else, ever. I still ask her for advice about relationships. But she can't advice me about dating and vetting.

Thank you Justin, Liz, Jamey and Esther Perel. What a powerful conversation. One takeaway among many: “Why are you recruiting someone for a play they didn’t audition for”? Brilliant. #insight

Esther seems so pure and so genuine. She talks freely, laughs freely whilst making everyone feel heard. I listened to her for the first time today and already possess so much love for her already ❤️

Please have a part 2 with Esther! She’s so engaging and insightful!

That hour FLEW by, really need a part 2, 3, 4 and 5

i love how Ester responds to the question of men not taking a side with women on abortion , "We didn't invite men to the conversation of abortion...." and her other comment that "abortion has been genderized instead of being kept in the context of family...."

Please, don't ever stop making such content! We need it more in today's time and world! Hats off to you guys.

Esther resonates with both men & women is that she has an amazing ability to make people feel like she’s meeting people where they are NOT where we want people to be

Whether you are flipping burgers or flipping houses you're enough, you have always been enough. Be kind to everyone including yourself seems to me a good philosophy

Yes!!!!! I’m so glad you guys got her on the show! Very excited for this one ❤❤

I didnt know this woman. Thank you for sharing this! The wisdom in this episode its intense.

"Do the work" is my relationship mantra, period. ♡♡♡

Love Esther Perel❤

Thank you for this convo., y’all ❤️

This is an incredible episode, genuinely can’t wait to see part 2

I had a great marriage, we started out as friends, he was raised by a single mother, and had great respect for women. He was masculine without feeling he had to dominate or control. We had great respect and friendship first. I'd been engaged before, but when you expect "The One" how hard are those expectations. What I look for in a man is a man who treats me good, don't blame someone for not knowing something, but how much of a relationship is all on one person. I got ghosted after 3 dates, he wanted friends with benefits, but I'm tired of that because what is my benefit, I let him know my rule, I deserve a relationship. He changed immediately afterward, I said I don't feel comfortable talking about sex unless I'm in a relationship and have an understanding. Each time I've gone against this I've been misused, and discarded quickly. I feel as if I'm judged harshly, but that's what he says he wants. There is a harsh double standard. I know there are wonderful guys out there. But I deserve to be treated respectfully.

I have already sent this podcast to those around me. It was so valuable to hear these. If we get a part 2, I’d be sooo happy! But still, enjoyed every second that make me question the way I see this world. Thank you soo much for diligently and consistently making the effort to help people understand and learn!!! I appreciate your podcast so much! ✨
