Your Spouse Listens to Everyone but You | S3E8 BEYOND I DO PODCAST

December 4, 2025 · 40 min

What do you do when it feels like your spouse cares more about their friends’ opinions than yours? In this episode, Adam and Ashlee react to a viral clip of a husband who says his wife “respects her friends more than her husband,” then unpack what respect in marriage really looks like. They talk about the difference between wanting respect and demanding control, how roles and finances can affect respect, and why so many couples feel unseen or unheard in their own home.Ashlee also gets honest about how she vents and processes with friends, why she is extremely careful about how she talks about Adam, and why your “venting buddy” can either protect or poison your marriage. Adam shares a fresh story from their own home about Christmas-tree stress, short tempers, and what it looks like to NOT take everything personally, but still communicate honestly and grow. If you’ve ever wondered how much to share with friends, how to protect your spouse’s character, or how to balance forgiveness with boundaries, this conversation is for you.--Join our AFTER I DO community for Exclusive Content & community!www.afterido.app--Have a question about relationships?
