Summary

Does your husband always have friends over? Or talk to his best friend more than you? Whether he's a social butterfly or a barfly, not being his number one is downright disappointing. It can feel hopeless, lonely, and make you angry too! Going it alone surely isn't what you had in mind when you said "I do." On today's episode of The Empowered Wife Podcast we're talking about 3 moves for becoming his #1 priority. I'll share what to do when your husband puts his friends first so that you can become irresistible and get the attention you deserve.

My guest Melissa and her husband were discussing separation instead of celebrating their 10-year anniversary. They had stopped communicating about important stuff, which seemed like a good solution since most of their conversations turned into arguments, including discussions about parenting and his drinking. But when she cleaned up her side of the street, his reaction was beyond her wildest dreams! He started working to be a better person, quit drinking and wanted to be with her and the kids more. Today, she says they have so much more fun together and are so much more relaxed. She's going to describe the steps she took so you can copy them.

The Worst Relationship Advice of the Week is from an article in a major women's magazine about the signs that tell you your relationship is over, and wow is it ever far out and appalling!
