276: Jealousy & Possessive behavior, Crystal Clear, Deception in dating

In this episode, Dr. Lisle discusses:  1. Is jealous and controlling/possessive behavior a sign that a romantic partner loves you or is just a something to do with their personality? 2. Does crystal clear usually only work with honest people? I suppose a dishonest person would lie and manipulate during the crystal clear, therefore the best outcome of the conversation would be finding out the truth despite their dishonesty and/or terminating the relationship because of the realization of their dishonesty and that it carries too many costs. 3. How common is it for men to be successfully deceived about a woman’s promiscuity? How easy is it for men to correctly ‘sniff out’ a woman’s promiscuity? How common is it for women to lie about their promiscuity?

275: Sex frequency issue, Cheating on Horace, Current Events

In today’s show, the doctors discuss: 

1. Dear Doctors, my husband and I have been married for 5 1/2 years now, and have an amazing relationship. We agree on most things, enjoy spending time together, have great communication and have very infrequent arguments. One thing (probably the only thing) we do argue about is my sex drive and my husband’s penis size. If my husband had it his way, we would have sex twice a day, every day and for me there is about a 10 day window every month where I actually want to have sex and the rest of the month I have absolutely no desire. My husband believes it is because he has a “small penis” even though he is the one who noticed my sexual desire peaks around my ovulation window. When we do have sex it is amazing and we are both fulfilled. No matter how many times I tell him he satisfies me and it has nothing to do with him or his size, he does not believe me. When I do engage in sexual activity outside of my “window” it is solely for him, and he can tell that I do not enjoy it. He immediately thinks of his penis size and gets depressed about it and he truly believes if he were bigger I would want him more. How do we move past this as a couple?

2. How does a woman prevent herself from cheating on her ‘horace’ husband with a ‘jimmy’ and losing his fathering to their children if she’s not in a magic 10% relationship?

3. The recent episode about current events was alarming. I understand the basics of what’s happening, but is the gravity of the situation being exaggerated by the doctors? Could they be falling into the trap of being the wise prophet foretelling doom in the stone age? That concept has been discussed on the podcast before so I’m curious their thoughts on it now.
