After his own experience of divorce, and after some soul searching, Matt&nbsp;had a kind of reckoning where he realised that how he had behaved in the marriage – mostly the every day little things that cause the same rows – had over time eroded trust, which led his wife to leave. Matt has used this to look at how men behave in relationships, primarily in romantic relationships with women.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Steph and Matt discuss Matt’s ‘Invalidation Triple Threat’ Theory, as well as how male identity and masculinity impacts how men behave in relationships - often unintentionally - and how consideration is something that women do so much more than men but is essential to a healthy relationship. &nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><ul><li>Matt’s book <a href=\"https://www.amazon.co.uk/This-Your-Marriage-Ends-Relationships/dp/1788168100/ref=tmm_pap_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&amp;qid=1651070101&amp;sr=8-1\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">‘This is How Your Marriage Ends’</a> </li><li>Matt’s <a href=\"https://matthewfray.com/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">website</a> and <a href=\"https://www.instagram.com/frayrelationships/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Instagram</a> </li><li>Matt’s Article <a href=\"https://www.huffpost.com/entry/she-divorced-me-i-left-dishes-by-the-sink_b_9055288\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">‘She Divorced me Because I left Dishes by the Sink’</a></li><li>Matt on the <a href=\"https://omny.fm/shows/mark-groves/matthew-fray\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Mark Groves Podcast</a> </li></ul><p><br></p><p>Steph’s <a href=\"https://www.instagram.com/steph_dontbuyherflowers/?hl=en\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Instagram</a> </p><p>Thoughtful GIfts from <a href=\"https://dontbuyherflowers.com\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Don’t Buy Her Flowers</a> </p><p>Contact Steph <a href=\"podcast@dontbuyherflowers.com&nbsp;\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">podcast@dontbuyherflowers.com&nbsp;</a></p>","author_name":"Steph Douglas"}
