It happens from childhood. All fears of damnation are vividly pushed on the family. The parent’s beliefs become the child’s truths. Strange codependence builds. And the cycle repeats. The radicalized child becomes the radicalized parent.
The toxicity that 1st generation Asian Americans have to work through is so intense. Glad these two are getting help but I think so many of us needed it so long ago.
Your mother is very likely living with severe mental health disregulation. She needs help, although regardless of what she is open to, it's healthy to keep your boundaries with her.
If the mother is a Christian, has she read the verse in the bible that says that a man (and woman) should leave their parents and be joined to each other as one flesh?
Why were they all ever living under the same roof?? The wife doesn’t want him to suppress his feelings but he HAD to suppress his feelings to tolerate her mother. If he didn’t suppress his feelings, he would’ve left her a long time ago.
Looks like a REALLY good series... unfortunately it's not available to stream in every country. it would be great if this issue could be considered, because there are still many stereotypes around therapy and many people don't get the support they need because of this. Such a well made series could help to get therapy a better imagine and of course more people watch the series.
People need to get serious help before they get into a relationship and drag someone else down. It's not your partner's responsibility to fix your issues because they will become collateral damage. Relationships shouldn't be this complicated.
It's not that perfect though. Some issues don't even surface until you have another person in your life. It's like physics: calculating the movement of one body is far easier and more predictable than two. A true relationship is a paradigm shift, you learn shit about yourself and you behave in ways, good or bad, you never thought you would. What is important is that when you see your partner is hurting, you are willing to seek help and engage in resolving the conflict with them, whether that means sustaining the relationship or not.
These two are clearly in love with each other. They need to keep working at their relationship - probably need to set some goals together. I'm not getting that whole mom /Christian thing. It sounds like a mask for something else. Obviously the mom/daughter relationship is toxic.
Yeah, it’s definitely something else. Nothing fits. Christianity is society’s scapegoat fill in for every screwed up problem they can’t solve on their own.
Mother is terrible.. Get rid of mother. Toxic, personality disordered.. Wife needs to grow up and stop acting like a 10 year old child. Wife needs to make her husband a priority not her toxic mother. Never let your parents dictate how you live your adult life
Love, a universal human experience, is a complex emotion that encompasses a wide range of feelings, from the euphoria of new beginnings to the comforting warmth of enduring companionship. It manifests in various forms, including romantic, familial, platonic, and agape love, each with its unique characteristics. Love challenges us to grow, to embrace vulnerability, and to discover our capacity for compassion. While love's journey is not without its trials, it is a precious gift that enriches our lives and connects us to one another. by: AI
The end!! When Orna asks Why would she did not want sex for herself, this isn’t about You. She not wanting sex is percibes as a problem for her partner and I never think in that way… as orna Says, it is a problem for herself in firs place Wow!
Don’t get involved if you have unresolved issues that will negatively color the relationship. The other person deserves better. No sex for years is cause for a divorce.
It has nothing to do with Christianity. She's trying to manipulate them by using the Bible, but the Bible is about life and life after life. I am interested in what biblical scripture she's using to justify her behavior. I'm sorry that she's doing that to her daughter and son-in-law.
Shame that comes from a mother your entire life runs deep. I wish I could say I don’t understand but unfortunately I do. I hope they can get through this.
That was bullsh1t is what it was. Supposedly the mother is a Christian. I will bet she is not simply a devout Christian worried about her child’s redemption. They don’t want to use the word she actually is.
This therapist is working in the ether realm of spiritually where she can't help. The Christian woman needs an actual pastor to help redefine and unlearn what she was taught on marriage, children, sexuality and order in the home. She has her own mental issue of shame for not being celibate prior to marriage and is now making him pay for it in the marriage. She also knows deep down inside that she married an unbeleiver and she feels like she has betrayed God. Those are her inner conflicts that she needs healing from.
That mother is not displaying or speaking Christian things. Her thoughts and words are not coming from a Christian source, that's a confused and unstable place
This lady worries me. Looks like she has a compassionate & patient man. There are plenty of other women that would get in line. Girl-- I'mma be the first ✌️
To show that these struggles are human and to anyone who's suffering knows that they're not alone? That there CAN be a resolution to the suffering? Transparency is education.
Her mother has absolutely poisoned this woman’s whole life

Mother or religion poisoned her
Time to put mom in a home
Like most mothers...
She is a narcissist. They don’t do intimacy.
The toxicity that 1st generation Asian Americans have to work through is so intense. Glad these two are getting help but I think so many of us needed it so long ago.
Are you one? Asking respectfully. Never heard the perspective directly
Poor girl, traumatized by a toxic mother. Strong boundaries with the mom is the only way.
Your mother is very likely living with severe mental health disregulation. She needs help, although regardless of what she is open to, it's healthy to keep your boundaries with her.
Mom needs help. Daughter is brainwashed and doesn't know what's real and what's not real.
I couldn't help but audibly groan. Their struggle for what they need and want is so palatable.
OMG I feel so much for this couple

I'm guessing cultural/financial reasons???
It’s cruel. If she can’t change, let this man go and remain locked in the dance with her mother. But free this man. He doesn’t deserve it.
I'm surprised he's still with her. Sounds like living with his MIL is a hellish reality, day in day out.
It’s a cultural thing. Asian families usually take care of their elder.. in her case, she should put her mom in a home

Yup. Her mom is under demonic influence.

That was heavy

And her man stayed by her but I’m single

This breaks my heart. I knew Joey as a teenager. 😢
This poor couple have a poisonous cuckoo in their home.
I was deeply shocked and saddened when we learned she forbid him from practicing his Chinese family tradition once a year.
Don’t get involved if you have unresolved issues that will negatively color the relationship. The other person deserves better. No sex for years is cause for a divorce.
Wait, why does her mom think the baby is going to die? Maybe I don’t understand bc I’m not Christian, but what does it have to do with the Bible?
I also don't understand and I'm Christian 🤷🏾♀️

Without sex for yearsssss 😔😔😔
You'd be surprised, but there are a lot of sexless marriages out there.
Shame that comes from a mother your entire life runs deep. I wish I could say I don’t understand but unfortunately I do. I hope they can get through this.
What is that saying if you are trying to have less sex all you need to do is get married.
what was that? I don't want to judge but so confused on what that was.
That was bullsh1t is what it was. Supposedly the mother is a Christian. I will bet she is not simply a devout Christian worried about her child’s redemption. They don’t want to use the word she actually is.
A real therapy session. Show on show max where a real therapist gets couples in and councils them for ten episodes. It’s brilliant
Sexless marriage ugh so sad and awkward
She punished her husband and he stayed.
I feel so bad for them. I don’t even know them or the mom but I’m kinda a lil angry at the mom and for her.
Divorce her. She’s got way too many red flags it starting to look like the fourth of july.
Mother is the problem. They will do fine once she stops intervening in their marriage. It’s sad how we Asian mothers are very narcissistic

How is that Christian things? 😮😮😮 I am a Christian and my bible doesn't say that unless one is completely ready what the want to hear

Bro getting no nookie
😔
bro got blue balls so bad
This was painful to watch
This is not entertainment. Why would any couple want this to be filmed and aired?
To show that these struggles are human and to anyone who's suffering knows that they're not alone? That there CAN be a resolution to the suffering?
Transparency is education.
That sweet man needs to stands for himself!.
end don't let her abuse you. it's happening because her toxic mother!.
This is far from Christian views at all. Her mother is NOT a Christian at all.
narcissist mother!!!!!
💯
Mom is the devil.
