Episode 224: Two Questions. 90 Minutes. Zero Answers.

You went into the conversation with two simple questions.

Two practical decisions that needed to be made.

Ninety minutes later, you walked away with zero answers and a whole lot of insults.

Sound familiar?

In this episode of The Loving Truth Podcast, I'm sharing a conversation I had with a member who's navigating divorce with a husband who seems determined to make every step more difficult than it needs to be.

She needed answers to two pretty straightforward questions:

Who's moving into the rental property? And are they going to use a mediator or attorneys?

Instead, she spent 90 minutes listening to all the ways she'd supposedly emasculated him throughout their marriage. All because he'd watched a TikTok video that convinced him this was the problem.

No decisions made. No progress. Just more hurt.

Here's the problem: When the argument becomes the conversation, the actual decisions never get made.

And when you're trying to move through a divorce, there are decisions that HAVE to be made, whether your spouse wants to cooperate or not.

So what do you do when every practical conversation turns into an opportunity for your spouse to blame you, insult you, or rehash everything that's gone wrong in the marriage?
